Många stadskärnor plågas idag av butiksdöden. Politiker, butiksägare och stadsplanerare frågar sig hur man håller en affärsgata levande. Den 24 juni lägger Devrim Umut Aslan fram en avhandling om hemligheten bakom en vibrerande shoppinggata. Devrim Umit Aslan har gjort en studie av Södergatan i Helsingborg, en lokal shoppinggata i den multikulturella södra halvan av staden. – Det talades ofta om

Diabetes researchers have established methods for screening people with an increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes. Current methods require multiple blood samples during each visit. An international team of researchers has developed a simplified screening method, which will increase screening efficiency. Type 1 diabetes is a disease that requires lifelong treatment with insulin. People of all

Inflammatory responses in the brain have long been suspected of playing a role in Alzheimer’s disease, but are challenging to monitor in the living human brain. An international collaboration including researchers at MultiPark, Lund University has made it possible to detect elevated levels of Galectin-3, a protein expressed in the immune cells inside the brain. The results were published in Acta N

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the abnormal accumulation and spread of the tau protein in the brain. An international study can now show how tau spreads according to four distinct patterns that lead to different symptoms with different prognoses of the affected individuals. The study was published in Nature M

The war in Gaza has caused conflict at universities in Sweden and abroad. Overcoming the differences between protestors and university managements and within groups of employees is likely to take time. We met with both Lund University’s Vice-Chancellor and protestors from the encampment in Lundagård. In this edition of LUM, they share their visions of how to move forward. We have also interviewed

Värmerekorden frodas. I år uppmättes den varmaste svenska majtemperaturen på över hundra år. Och även om det lokala vädret i Sverige egentligen inte säger någonting om de globala klimatförändringarna, konstaterar Johanna Alkan Olsson, miljö- och klimatforskare i Lund, att vi kommer att få se mer av den här typen av ovanligt väder. Fler soltimmar än sedan mätningarna startade, högre dygnsmedeltempe

Ett forskarlag har studerat fyra märkliga stenar som hittats i en grusgrop strax utanför den lilla byn Kitkiöjärvi i Pajala kommun. Analyser av mineralkorn i stenarna visar att de härstammar från ett hittills okänt meteoritnedslag för 659 miljoner år sedan. Nu återstår jakten på nedslagskratern som lurar någonstans i närheten av grustaget. Ett forskarlag har studerat fyra märkliga stenar som hitta

I en ny studie visar forskare hur synen hos en fjärilsart har utvecklats så att de ser röda färgnyanser lika bra som blå. En förmåga som ger dem specifika fördelar, exempelvis i jakten på nektar. Upptäckten har möjliggjorts genom att forskarna har utvecklat en helt ny metod för att avgöra vad och vilka färger insekter kan se. Landlevande varelser uppfattar olika delar av ljusets våglängder.

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Nu tycks forskare ha hittat resterna av en planet som cirkulerar runt en slocknande stjärna. Det aktuella planetfragmentet har en omloppstid på bara två timmar och väcker stor nyfikenhet hos astronomerna. En ny studie, som nu publiceras i tidskriften Science, lägger fram bevis för att forskare har hittat en liten hi
