Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerformen bland kvinnor. Ovarialcancer upptäcks ofta sent och prognosen är därför dålig. Den relativa 5-årsöverlevnaden är mindre än 50%, jämfört med >80% för bröstcancer. Den idag rådande uppfattningen är att det som kallas ovarialcancer i själva verket är olika sjukdomar, med skillnader i var de uppkommer, vilka egenskaper de har och hur de svarar på behandling. Breast and ovarian cancers are complex and heterogeneous, and share several features, including genetic predisposition caused by BRCA1/2 mutations. Ovarian cancer is however associated with poor survival relative to breast cancer. Utilizing comprehensive biobanks, high-throughput omics methods and in vitro model systems we aim to advance our understanding of tumour evolution, disease heterogeneity

Avdelningen för partikel- och kärnfysik spänner brett över subatomär fysik och agerar till stor del inom internationella forskningsmiljöer. Vi bedriver experimentell och teoretisk forskning med kolliderexperiment. Vi sysslar med sökningar av mörk materia, grundläggande fysik med neutroner, kärnstruktur och kärnreaktioner på gränsen för kärnstabilitet, samt studerar konstgjord radioaktivitet i miljThe Division of Particle and Nuclear Physics spans broad across subatomic physics and acts largely within international research environments. We conduct experimental and theoretical research with collider experiments. We are engaged in dark-matter searches, fundamental physics with neutrons, nuclear structure and nuclear reactions at the limits of nuclear stability, as well as studying man-made r

Affärsrättsligt centrum vid Lunds universitet, ACLU , bildades 2016 av förmögenhets- och affärsrättsligt verksamma forskare vid Lunds universitet. Avsikten med ACLU är att såväl samla som stärka de vitala och kraftfulla forskningsmiljöer på det affärsjuridiska området som finns inom Lunds universitet och göra dem såväl nationellt som internationellt konkurrenskraftiga. För en framgångsrik forskninLund University Centre for Business Law (Swedish abbr: ACLU) was founded in 2016 by researchers at Lund University. The purpose of ACLU is both to assemble and to strengthen the necessary and forceful research environments that exist at Lund University, and to make them both nationally and international competitive. An intense exchange of experiences and knowledge between the University and the pu

Introduction: Complicated perianal disease (cPD) may be the sole presentation of Crohn’s disease (CD). The role of small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) in the diagnostic algorithm of cPD is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the role of SBCE as a diagnostic tool, in patients with cPD, after a negative standard workup for CD. Methods: A multicenter, retrospective, cross-sectional study, in patients with

Vårt övergripande forskningsmål är att hitta nya sätt att behandla patienter med metastaserande bröstcancer. Även om stora framsteg i hur vi behandlar bröstcancerpatienter har gjorts under de senaste decennierna så får många patienter fortfarande återfall och metastaserande bröstcancer är fortfarande en obotlig sjukdom. Genom att identifiera signalvägar som är aktiva i metastaser och studera riktaOur ultimate research goal is to find improved ways to treat patients with metastatic breast cancer. Although significant progress in treatment strategies has been made during the last decades, many breast cancer patients still relapse and to date metastatic breast cancer remains an incurable disease. We aim to identify the signalling pathways active in recurrent disease in order to study response

Gruppen leds av professor Christina Brogårdh, där flera seniora och juniora forskare ingår samt doktorander. I gruppen ingår också en gästprofessor och personer som är anställda vid Skånes universitetssjukhus. Forskningen och undervisningen som bedrivs i gruppen innefattar flera olika områden, såsom: -Neurorehabilitering; tex återhämtning och fatigue efter stroke, nya rehabiliteringsmetoder förThe group is led by Professor Christina Brogårdh, and includes senior and junior researchers as well as doctoral students. A visiting professor and persons employed at Skåne University Hospital are also affiliated to the group. The research and teaching comprises several areas: - Neurorehabilitation; such as recovery and fatigue after stroke; new rehabilitation methods to improve sensorimotor fu

Official calls for “failed” asylum seekers to leave Sweden ignore the difficulties and harms befalling stateless people who cannot return to previous countries of residence because they lack citizenship. Stateless people are caught in limbo, a position where they have no prospects of return or of attaining a residence permit in a predictable future. To learn the underlying logics and consequences

Our aim is to be a leading center of excellence within the field of national and international public health and to promote high quality research, education, and applied knowledge. The primary areas of research are sexual and reproductive health and rights, maternal and child health, youth health, social capital, health policy, marginalized populations, mental health, violence, substance abuse, ri

We challenge the question of how environmental (diet, physical activity, alcohol) factors modify genetic associations put forward by us and others, in recent genome wide association studies (GWAS) of lipoprotein traits, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and obesity and aim to utilize this information in intervention studies and in development of prediction models. We work to further improve genetic C

Our main focus is understanding peripheral pathology in HD and investigate its importance for disease pathogenesis and biomarkers. Our work is based on the hypothesis that insights into peripheral pathology in HD will improve knowledge of key pathogenic mechanisms, possibly providing new biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets.

Vår multidisciplinära forskning fokuserar på personer med neurodegenerativa sjukdomar (såsom Parkinsons sjukdom och kognitiva sjukdomar), inklusive personer som har en ökad risk att utveckla sådana sjukdomar. En tidig upptäckt möjliggör tidigt stöd och rehabilitering. Vår forskning identifierar tidiga tecken, konsekvenser, prognostiska faktorer och behov av åtgärder. Forskningen avser även att ökOur multidisciplinary research focus on people with neurodegenerative diseases (ND), such as Parkinson’s disease and major neurocognitive disorders (dementia). We also include people at risk of developing ND. Early detection facilitates timely support and rehabilitation. Our research aims to determine early signs, consequences, unmet needs, and prognostic factors. We also aim to gain an increased

This research platform gathers scholars from a number of disciplines to interrogate the complex ideological, historical, and practical interactions between Christianity and nationalism. The platform understands both terms broadly; it investigates various forms of Christianity and different shapes of nationalism — through political, economic, sociological, historical, theological and philosophical

Vid Miljö- och geovetenskapliga institutionen bedriver vi forskning och utbildning som belyser både grundläggande och tillämpade frågor om jordens tidigare, nuvarande och framtida klimat och miljö. Vi studerar också hur människor påverkar naturen och hur dessa förändringar i sin tur påverkar vårt välbefinnande. Institutionen utvecklar och använder avancerade metoder, modeller och tekniker inom blaAt the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, we conduct research and provide education that highlights both fundamental and applied questions concerning the Earth’s past, present and future climate and environment. We also study how humans affect nature and how these changes, in turn, influence our wellbeing. The department develops and uses advanced methods, models and technologies, inc

Popular Abstract in English There is a natural tendency to take advantage of the most convenient energy source available. In this usage, convenient may mean most abundant, easiest to harvest or simplest to handle. Convenient will also correspond to cheapest in many instances. However, some consider it a responsibility to think of the long term costs of the energy we use. No form of energy is free The matured laser-diagnostic techniques of planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) and particle image velocimetry (PIV) were applied to a prototype gas turbine burner operating on various fuels. The work was performed to provide verification of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) models of the combustion of atypical fuels in a gas turbine combustor. The burner was operated using methane and three s
