Detta läsår startar Musikhögskolan upp en nygammal masterutbildning i komposition för film och media. Utbildningen har funnits på Musikhögskolan tidigare, senast 2012, men har sedan dess varit vilande. Den baseras på kreativt skapande och att med musikaliska medel fånga dramatiska och emotionella förlopp i rörlig film och bild. Daniel Fjellström Kursledare i komposition, Daniel Fjellström, säger s

Systemic inflammation impairs perivascular CSF distribution, according to our latest discoveries published in the Journal of Neuroinflammation. The exchange of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) seems to be crucial for the clearance of waste products from the brain. Previous research shows that impaired CSF clearance is associated with neurodegenerative diseases. After systemic injections with LPS, the mic

In the brain, the microglial cells (green) have the ability to pick up clumps of beta-amyloid (red) that accumulate in Alzheimer's disease. ECT does not seem to compromise this process, according to the study.

Yiyi Yang defends her PhD thesis on Thursday 3rd June 2021. During her Ph.D. studies, Yiyi Yang has been investigating the role of microglia in the pathological development of Alzheimer’s disease. On the 3rd of June, it is time to defend her work supervised by Prof. Tomas Deierborg. Now, Yiyi tells us about her research in the Experimental Neuroinflammation Laboratory as being a part of MultiPark.

Tomas Roos defended his thesis 17 February 2023. The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos was recently recruited as a postdoc in our lab. He thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggre

Communication is key in research. Recently, our lab had a team-building day at the beach. And a simple Lego game can tell very much about the reasons behind the reproducibility crisis in science. Getting together to communicate new ideas and build relationships is critical for maintaining a vital research group. That is why our lab arranges a team-building once a year, together with the experiment
