Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. För drygt 40 år sedan satt Åke Lernmark, då nybliven medicinstudent, på ett extrajobb i ett laboratorium i Umeå och mätte blodsockret på möss. Sedan dess är han fast. - Ja, jag fångades direkt av forskningen, säger Åke Lernmark. Allt mer av hans tid slukades av forskningen, medicinstudierna allt mer en bisak som han

I strokemodeller på möss, har forskare lyckats återställa förlorad hjärnfunktion med hjälp av små molekyler som i framtiden kan utvecklas till strokeläkemedel. ­– Efter stroke förändras kommunikationen mellan nervceller i stora delar av hjärnan och vi visar att den delvis återställs med behandlingen, säger Tadeusz Wieloch, seniorprofessor i neurobiologi vid Lunds universitet. –  Samtidigt återfår

Elsa Trolle Önnerfors var förvånad över hur smidigt övergången till distans­undervisning gick. Men nu handlar det mer om hur studenterna mår och uthållighet – oklart hur länge. –Jag gjorde av med en årsförbrukning av kreativitet de första veckorna, oc

Few research publications reach outside the realm of academia and even fewer make an impact on sustainability debates and societal issues. Kimberly Nicholas’ research on lifestyle choices to reduce your carbon footprint is unique in its reach and impact on society. Her research started with a question, asked by friends and students: what can I do for the climate that really makes a difference? Kim

A Swedish multi-centre study led by researchers at Lund University shows a link between low fibre consumption and the presence of unstable or high-risk plaque in coronary arteries – the type of plaque that can trigger blood clots and cause heart attacks. The study also links dietary pattern to the composition of the plaques, i.e. how potentially dangerous they are. Using advanced cardiac imaging,

A groundbreaking study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the Australian Bogong moth uses the stars and the Milky Way as a compass during its annual 1,000-kilometre journey to cool inland caves. It also reveals that the Earth’s magnetic field plays an important role in the enigmatic moth’s navigation. It is absolutely amazing considering the length of the journey. It’s the equivalent of a h

Does SRHR Aid Work? Evidence and Knowledge Gaps. Sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) are fundamental for people’s wellbeing. The promotion of SRHR is an important part of international development cooperation, and external funding is crucial for the provision of health services in many countries.

Researchers at Lund University and DTU in Copenhagen have discovered enzymes in the colon that, when mixed with red blood cells, can cut away parts of the carbohydrates that separate our ABO blood groups from each other. The method brings us closer to the dream of a universal blood for everyone. It has long been known that blood from different individuals cannot be mixed randomly without the risk
