New findings from Jezero crater reveal how bedrock formed deep within Mars' crust was uplifted, submerged under water in a lake and became altered. The results provide a new piece of the puzzle in understanding the long geologic history of our red neighbour planet. Since NASA's Perseverance rover landed on Mars' red dusty surface in February 2021, it has collected a wealth of valuable data. As the

Astronomers at Lund University in Sweden have found a group of stars in the Milky Way disk, that are most likely remnants from an unknown baby galaxy that was swallowed by the Milky Way over 10 billion years ago. Nothing like it has been discovered in the galaxy disk before. After the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago, space was a veritable Wild West. Stars formed inside huge gas clouds that collide

Oksana Tymoshchuk, professor from Ukraine, came to Sweden in April 2022 when a full-scale war broke out in her country. A grant from the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation brought Oksana and Iben Lundgaard together and today Oksana is working in the Lundgaard lab trying to find out more about the mysterious glymphatic system. We are all well aware of the situation in Ukraine. Prof Oksana Tymoshc

Soot is generated from incomplete combustion or pyrolysis of organic compounds. Soot strongly absorbs solar radiation contributing to global warming. Additionally, soot can enter deeply into human organs causing various types of cancers. Understanding soot nano-structures and properties is essential to predict their impacts on climate and human health. Raman spectroscopy (RS) is a powerful techniq

  1 How does the working method of an R&D unit differ from how it works at the university? The tasks are more varied and the collaboration between colleagues closer. Of course, the difference also depends on which research environment you come from.  Research is conducted in the same way and there are several internally driven research projects. However, we accept external assignments that require

Most patients with mycosis fungoides, a rare form of lymphoma, live for years with a relatively mild disease. But in some cases it develops into a more serious condition. Angelica Johansson has identified biological changes that may help explain why the disease progresses in about a quarter of patients. Her work also shows that patients report unexpectedly high quality despite living with a chroni
