Anna Fossum, projektledare på forskningsinfrastrukturen StemTherapy FACS Core Facility, har sorterat celler med olika typer av FACS-maskiner i 23 år. Men tröttnat på jobbet har hon inte gjort - tvärtom. Nu har hon fått en ny och mer kraftfull medlem i FACS-familjen att sköta om. – Jag älskar mitt jobb! Det är stimulerande att träffa så många människor och höra om deras olika forskningsprojekt. Man

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Att den mentala förmågan starkt försämras när blodsockret faller för lågt är väl känt. Nu visar en ny studie på skolbarn att riktigt höga blodsocker har precis lika negativa effekt på tankeförmågan. Amerikanska forskare lät skolbarn i åldrarna 6 till 11 år med typ 1 diabetes utföra två olika test. Det ena handlade o

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Digitaliseringen gör – tvärtemot vad som sägs - inte arbetsmarknaden mer polariserad. Och ett livslångt lärande måste bli verklighet – med bibehållen inkomst under studieperioderna. Det var några budskap som publiken fick med sig hem från Lunds universitets tankesmedja LU Futuras föreläsning kring digitalisering och

– I have red cells in my dish! When the phone call from PhD student Fábio Rosa came through, Professor Filipe Pereira knew that this was the start of something big. All their work had been leading to this moment. The red cells in the dish were from a mouse, and Filipe and his colleagues had been trying to reprogramme them into dendritic cells, specfically type 1 conventional dendritic cells, (cDC1

An international research team led from Lund University, has identified epigenetic biomarkers that can predict which people with type 2 diabetes are at risk of cardiovascular disease. The study is now published in Cell Reports Medicine. People with type 2 diabetes are up to four times more likely to have heart attacks, strokes, anginas and other coronary heart diseases than healthy people. Therefo

Ice sheets, snow and the ocean as far as the eye can see. No shipping vessels or people in sight, and only polar bears for company. The icebreaker Oden sails between Svalbard and Greenland, and this spring, doctoral student Lovisa Nilsson joined the ship to study the transition from winter to summer in the Arctic, and how soot affects the melting of sea ice. For six weeks, the spaces onboard Oden

Årets sötaste helg står för dörren. Kanske bakar du pepparkakor, lägger in sill, kokar knäck och sötad risgrynsgröt. Men vad betyder det söta för oss och vad är historien bakom sockrets intåg i vår vardag? – Det söta och det feta har ganska långt tillbaka haft hög status. Därför har det varit naturligt med något sött som gåvor eller att bjuda på vid fest och högtider så långt tillbaka i tiden som
