Alzheimer’s disease can lead to several widely divergent symptoms and, so far, its various expressions have mainly been observed through the behaviour and actions of patients. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now produced images showing the changes in the brain associated with these symptoms – a developme

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Neurogenesis, the process by which new neurons are formed, dramatically declines in the aging brain. A research group from Lund Stem Cell Center have published a study that sheds light on the different factors contributing to this loss, particularly the role of inflammation. “One of the focuses of our research is on w

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. What makes for a successful transition to a low-carbon energy system? Local involvement, perceived fairness and information sharing, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden. The researchers studied two cases, one in Samsø (Denmark) and one in Feldheim (Germany) of successful implementation of low-carb

The coast is changing. The sea is encroaching further inland, and the shoreline of childhood memory no longer looks the same. Climate change is impacting beaches and the sea, but time is also a factor. Someone who knows a lot about changes to the Skåne coastline is Caroline Hallin. She is a coastal engineer whose research focuses on erosion, storm surges and nature-adapted coastal protection at th

Are you thinking about starting to commute to work by bike now that the spring is coming, but maybe you can't quite get started? Here are some of the university's test cyclists, in Innovation Skåne's project Case: Supercycle routes, with their best tips. Recently you could read in LU News about how both fitness and sleep improved for most of the test cyclists, even though the project only lasted s

Solo living in your own home places a greater strain on the planet’s resources than living with others, as everyone needs their own appliances – a toaster, a washing machine and so on. The Nordic countries stand out: almost half of all households are solo living households. Sustainability researcher Tullia Jack interviewed people who live alone about the reasons for this and hopes for new forms of

World Cancer Day, celebrated on 04 February, is a time to reflect on the progress being made in cancer research. At Lund Stem Cell Center, researchers are using innovative approaches to advance the field, offering exciting possibilities for the future. At the end of 2023, their work received a significant boost through generous funding of SEK 77.5 million from the Swedish Research Council, the Swe

Researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have made new strides in understanding why some patients with chronic myeloid leukemia respond better to treatment than others. Their study, recently published in eLife, suggests that the amount of healthy blood stem cells at diagnosis could be a key factor in predicting how well patients will respond to standard therapies. Chronic myeloid leu

Lund University and Skåne University Hospital, Sweden, have signed a memorandum of understanding regarding a joint initiative on immunotherapy. Immunotherapy harnesses the body’s own immune system to fight disease and has great potential, both in cancer and in autoimmune diseases where established treatments are insufficient.To capitalise on this development, a joint hub for stakeholders in the fi

That eating plenty of vegetables, wholegrains and legumes is beneficial for health is well known. More surprising, however, is that people who eat in a environmentally-friendly way also display nutritional values that are better than researchers had expected. This is shown in a new study by Anna Stubbendorff at the Agenda 2030 Graduate School. The EAT–Lancet diet is a global dietary guideline deve

Supported lipid bilayers are formed at a faster rate on light-guiding nanowires of high curvature than on conventional planar substrates, with single-vesicle resolution that proves their potential for studying relevant cellular phenomena. This is shown in a recent study by researchers Julia Valderas, Ruby Davtyan, Christelle Prinz, Emma Sparr, Peter Jönsson, Heiner Linke, and Fredrik Höök. “We des

By using cells isolated from cancer patients and mixing them with a new technology called “OssiGel”, it is possible to engineer human mini-bones. These miniaturized organs consist of mature bone and marrow tissue and can be used as model to study the disease mechanisms behind cancers that arise in bone marrow or spread to the bones, and offer the personalized testing of new drugs.
