Ett hundratal exklusiva astronomiböcker från 1545 till 1799 har flyttats från Astronomibiblioteket till Universitetsbiblioteket. LUM var med när böckerna packades, men också flera månader senare efter att de vistats i karantän och det var dags att katalogisera, kapsla och magasinera. Nästa år ska de mest sällsynta skrifterna digitaliseras och kanske även ställas ut. Utanför Astronomihusets fönster

Diagnosing Alzheimer's disease can be difficult, as several other conditions can cause similar symptoms. Now a new brain imaging method can show the spread of specific tau protein depositions, which are unique to cases with Alzheimer's. ‟The method works very well. I believe it will be applied clinically all over the world in only a few years”, says Oskar Hansson. Hansson is a professor of clinica
