Available HIV treatments are unsatisfactory since they don’t clear the infection and result in expensive and life‐long treatment on an every‐day basis without clear evidence of the long‐term consequences and side effects of this. Our research is highly translational and combines clinical, experimental and bioinformatics research in various systems virology approaches to uncover nocel key virus-hos
BACKGROUND: Non-fatal outcomes of disease and injury increasingly detract from the ability of the world's population to live in full health, a trend largely attributable to an epidemiological transition in many countries from causes affecting children, to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) more common in adults. For the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2015 (GBD 2015), we
In diffusion MRI (dMRI), images are sensitised to water diffusion by the application of magnetic field gradients. Cell membranes hinder the diffusional motion and thereby contribute to the contrast in dMRI. Thus, the diffusion of water molecules is used a probe of tissue microstructure. Data from dMRI is often analysed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which yields image biomarkers that reflec
Centre for Innovation Research – CIRCLE – is an interdisciplinary centre which connects innovation researchers from different faculties at Lund University as well as other Swedish and international universities. The meaning of the term innovation has transformed and is now tightly linked to sustainable development goals including climate change, social sustainability and food security. CIRCLE’s a
It is often argued that anisogamy causes alternative reproductive tactics (ARTs) to be more common in males than females. We challenge this view by pointing out logical flaws in the argument. We then review recent work on the diversity of female ARTs, listing several understudied types such as solitary versus communal breeding and facultative parthenogenesis. We highlight an important difference b

Forskningsområdet studerar organiseringen av välfärdspraktiker och de aktörer som verkar där, som professionella, men också som klienter, brukare, volontärer, besökare och liknande. Fokus ligger på det sociala arbetet och dess organisationer. Forskningen bygger därmed vidare på en tradition vid Socialhögskolan i Lund att kritiskt granska institutioner och institutionalisering. Området studerar ockThe research area studies the organization of welfare practitioners and the actors who work there, as professionals, but also as clients, users, volunteers and visitors, with focus on social work and its organizations. The research is thus based on a tradition at the Lund University to critically examine institutions and institutionalization. The area also studies professions, professionalization,

Internationellt motsvaras svensk idé- och lärdomshistoria av flera olika forskningsinriktningar ”intellectual history”, ”cultural history” samt ”history of ideas” och ämnet har således en förhållandevis bred forskningsprofil. Här finns en äldrehistorisk inriktning liksom en sedan länge etablerad stark filosofihistorisk tradition och en senare inriktning mot begreppshistoria. Till detta kommer flerResearch in history of ideas and sciences at Lund University is broad. Our specialities include studies of early modernity, history of philosophy and a more recent emphasis on conceptual history. In addition to this, several researchers are showing an interest in the history of science, technology and medicine. These different orientations within the field of History of Ideas and Sciences at Lund

The Centre for East and South-East Asian Studies was created in 1997 as the result of a special government initiative. The Centre's task is the encouragement and furtherance of research in Sweden concerning modern East and South-East Asia, including the rapidly changing societies, developing economies and political institutions in the region. Building upon existing strengths at Lund University in
Naturvetenskapliga fakulteten bedriver forskning och utbildning inom flera naturvetenskapliga ämnen, fördelat på sex institutioner. Våra forskare undersöker bland annat djurs supersinnen, livets utveckling, klimatförändringar och Vintergatans ursprung men även naturens minsta beståndsdelar, framtidens material och effektivare mediciner. Vid fakulteten möjliggörs också banbrytande forskning genom tThe Faculty of Science conducts research and education across a broad range of scientific disciplines, distributed among six departments. Our researchers explore, among other topics, animal super senses, the evolution of life, climate change, and the origins of the Milky Way, as well as the fundamental building blocks of nature, advanced materials of the future, and more effective medicines.

The laboratory consists of a XenX x-ray irradiator (XStrahl) for experimental radiobiology, with supporting equipment for cell culture applications, such as laminar flow cabinets, CO2 incubators, and a hypoxia workstation. The XenX unit is designed as a radiotherapy machine in miniature. It consists of a 225 kV x-ray source, mounted on a rotatable gantry allowing irradiation of specimens from all
Our research uses advanced technology to generate neurons from novel cell sources with the aim to extensively define the subtype and function of the generated neurons and their potential for therapeutic use in the future. For this we are using reprogramming technology in animal models or human stem cell culture system, together with electrophysiology, RNA sequencing, tracing technologies and cell Our research uses advanced technology to generate neurons from novel cell sources with the aim to extensively define the subtype and function of the generated neurons and their potential for therapeutic use in the future.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodparasiter och blåmesar - en studie i rött och blått Alla har någon gång varit utsatta för parasiter. Man kan nog till och med vara säker på, att just i den stund du läser detta, finn's det någonstan's någon form av parasit som försöker attackera dig. I dom allra flesta fall misslycka's sådana försök tack vare ett mycket starkt och mångfacetterat försvar. Förutom deParasites are ubiquitous and can cause significant fitness reductions to their hosts. Therefore, selection for the evolution of host resistance should be strong. However, resistance may be costly and should be traded-off against other fitness related traits. Parasites could therefore have a significant impact on the evolution of fitness related characters of their hosts. It has been suggested that
