New research results now published from Lund University’s MASAI trial are even better than the initial findings from last year: AI-supported breast screening detected 29 per cent more cases of cancer compared with traditional screening. More invasive cancers were also clearly detected at an early stage using AI. Now the final part of the research study will focus on breast cancer missed by screeni

Strukturella förändringar, som att den kvinnligt dominerande tjänstesektorn gick från lågavlönat hushållsarbete till kontorsjobb, bidrog starkt till att löneskillnaderna mellan fattiga och rika började minska i Stockholm för drygt 100 år sedan. Nya rön publicerade i Explorations in Economic History visar att strukturella förändringar av vilka typer av arbeten som fanns tillgängliga – inte minst fö

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A team of researchers from Lund University has imaged the beam focus at the hard X-ray nanoprobe NanoMAX using a single nanowire as the detector. The result is an unprecedented ultrahigh-resolution 3D image of the 88 nanometer diameter focus revealing fine details of the beam. “A basic way of describing an X-ray exper

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Research from Lund University in Sweden can explain why type 2 diabetes is inherited to a greater extent from an individual’s mother. The heredity of a previously known risk gene, THADA, has proven to be dominant if it comes from the mother, whereas it has little or no effect on the child’s risk of disease if it origi
