Under sin mer än 50-åriga karriär har diabetesforskaren Åke Lernmark gjort flera betydande upptäckter som har ökat kunskapen om typ 1-diabetes. Hans forskning bidrar till att skapa förutsättningar för ett nationellt screeningprogram i Sverige. I Sverige insjuknar omkring 1000 barn och lika många vuxna i typ 1-diabetes varje år. Sjukdomen får stora konsekvenser för de familjer som drabbas. Barn med

Laura Elo at University of Turku is awarded the Leif C. Groop Award for outstanding research on type 1 diabetes. The mathematician from Finland has developed methods which have helped increase the understanding of how type 1 diabetes develops at molecular level. She hopes her research will help prevent and delay the progression of the disease and individualise the treatment of type 1 diabetes. Jus

Personer med diabetes drabbas oftare av komplikationer i sina händer än övrig befolkning. I sin avhandling som läggs fram vid Lunds universitet har Mattias Rydberg kartlagt diabeteshanden. – Det finns stor anledning både för dem som har diabetes och för vårdpersonal som möter dessa patienter att vara uppmärksamma på handfunktionen. Det är först när handfunktionen krånglar som vi inser hur mycket v

Idag saknas effektiv läkemedelsbehandling mot svår kronisk andnöd. Ibland behandlar vården med opioidpreparat såsom morfin för att lindra symtomen, men evidensen har varit bristande för om detta hjälper. I en randomiserad fas 3-studie som forskare vid Lunds universitet och ett forskningsnätverk i Australien genomfört, såg man att morfin inte minskade andnöden hos patienterna. Studien publiceras i

För en tid sedan fick jag frågan ”vad vill Lunds universitet när det gäller AI och forskning?”. Först blev jag lite förvånad och tänkte ska universitetet ha en uttryckt önskan om detta. Men sedan började jag fundera på andra ambitioner vi tydligt uttalat. Vi vill vara ”ett universitet i världsklass”, vi vill ”förstå, förklara och förbättra vår värld och människors villkor” och vi vill ”öka vårt in

A common cause of myocardial infarction and stroke is the rupture of atherosclerotic plaques. The exact location of plaque ruptures has previously been unknown, but now researchers at Lund University have mapped this.

I and many others are ambivalent when it comes to the ranking of the world’s universities. But Lund University has made the ranking lists and that does have an impact, at the very least for international marketing purposes. We must be active, rather than passive, in relation to the ranking bodies. Small margins can make a university climb or tumble down the lists, so there is a need to be modest w
