MultiPark researchers have discovered a new promising pharmacological approach stimulating recovery after stroke. Professor Tadeusz Wieloch tells about how the MultiPark Innovation Office supported the first steps in converting their academic research findings into something with commercial potential that may finally benefit the patients. Around 80% of people who suffer a stroke permanently lose s

When LINXS moved from its old premises at Ideon to The Loop in Science Village in March, the institute became the first research environment from Lund University to make the move to Brunnshög. Since then, activities have more than doubled, new collaborations have emerged, and the team’s mood is distinctly optimistic.I met with Anna Ntinidou, Head of Administration, Noomi Egan, Communications Offic

Engaging students during seminars is a common challenge for higher education teachers. Learning is always the outcome of the students’ activity, and teachers can only facilitate, encourage, hinder or discourage learning (Ambrose et al., 2010). Indeed, a seminar only works if participants are active and come prepared. However, students face different struggles when preparing for seminars. Micol Mie

Linnéa Jönsson and Patrik Nilsson were two of the PhD students who seized the opportunity to have a research visit financed by NanoLund last year. This is a support that NanoLundians – PhD students as well as senior scientists – can apply for at any time. “Do it! You have to take the opportunity to do something like this if you get the chance,” says Linnéa Jönsson. As a researcher at NanoLund, you

“My stay here has not only given me practical access to sources and libraries. Being in a different academic environment has also given me new ideas and perspectives on what we do in Lund.” These are the words of historian Marie Cronqvist, who moved to Berlin with her husband and children last summer. Now it will soon be time to go home, but before that LUM had time to meet them and find out about

Den vanligaste använda metoden att testa för covid-19 är med RT-PCR genom ett nässvalgsprov taget med bomullspinne. Provtagning från nässvalget är ofta obehaglig och RT-PCR-test kräver även analys i laboratorium. I en ny studie från Lunds universitet har forskare undersökt om snabbantigentest för covid-19 kan användas på saliv i stället för att pinna nässvalget. Resultaten är publicerade i Infecti

Jakten i Sverige har en lång historia och kan klassas som en folklig tradition och ett kulturarv. Viltvård och gemenskap är viktiga nyckelord i beskrivning av jakten, men den har på senare år även präglats av den kommersiella jakten, där du köper dig rätten att jaga på andras mark.
