The donation means an opportunity to think more long-term and with greater ambitions. "Our hope is that we will be able to accelerate the development of new treatments for cancer patients," says Kristian Pietras, one of the researchers responsible for the donation. Cancer researchers at Lund University have been awarded a record donation of SEK 420 million from the Mrs. Berta Kamprad Foundation. K

Great tits in urban environments have lower levels of stress hormone than those living in woodland habitats. This according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Certain animals are able to adjust well to environments that have been created or altered by human activity. We live in an age in which urbanisation is proceeding at an ever-faster rate, something that also affects fauna. The gre

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have identified one of the reasons why the childhood cancer neuroblastoma becomes resistant to chemotherapy. The findings are significant for how future treatments should be designed. The results have been published in Science Advances. Neuroblastoma is an aggressive cancer of the sympathetic nervous system, especially of the adrenal gland. Despite intense

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers have for the first time determined that hybridization between two bird species can give rise to several novel and fully functional hybrid genomic combinations. This could potentially be because hybrid species emerged through independent hybridisation events between the same parent species on different isla

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show how a cell-free cartilage structure can safely guide bone repair without triggering strong immune responses. The transplant has been successfully tested in animal models, and the next step is to evaluate the tissue engineering approach in humans.

This year, the Mats Paulsson Foundation is awarding grants to eight outstanding research projects, two of which are led by researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center. The projects include an advanced cancer treatment using cellular reprogramming and a platform for the development of new cell therapies. On 24 October 2025, at an awards ceremony at Medicon Village, six researchers from t

The one year presidency of Simon Anderberg draws to a close and on 16 July he hands over the president’s club to Tova Mark. We had an opportunity to meet up with them both in Skånis and of course we leapt at it. Simon, how has the last year matched your expectations?I’m not sure what I expected, but we are at a good place as an organisation. We did not have any radical changes planned, instead we

The overall aim of the course is to give students a basic knowledge of artificial neural networks and deep learning, both theoretical knowledge and how to practically use them for typical problems in machine learning and data mining. BackgroundDeep learning and artificial neural networks have in recent years become very popular and led to impressive results for difficult computer science problems

The number of applicants to this autumn's international courses and programmes has increased by 16% across Sweden. As usual, Lund University is at the top in terms of the number of applications and has for the first time reached over 30,000 applications in total in the international Master's programme (Master HT25) with 31,947 applications. This represents an increase of around 15% compared to app

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Long life is common among bird parents that get help with childcare. This finding comes from researchers at the universities of Lund and Oxford who reviewed data from more than 9,000 studies. Being a parent can be tough. In general, animals that care for many offspring die young, at least in species where parents are

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Up to now, researchers have believed that birds stay at home and altruistically help raise younger siblings because this is the only way to pass on genes when you cannot breed yourself. But this idea is only partially true. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that birds benefit from being helpful because
