Vilket är det perfekta receptet på halvledare? Svaret arbetar Vanya Darakchieva på i sin forskning om nya halvledarmaterial. Hon är professor i fasta tillståndets fysik på LTH där hon som ”forskarkock” utformar framtidens kokbok för hållbar och säker elektronik. Att förstå och förklara naturens mysterier var Vanya Darakchievas dröm redan under barndomsåren i Bulgarien. Då var hon mest intresserad

Tack vare Europeiska sydobservatoriets teleskop i Chile har astronomer gjort detaljerade observationer av den mytomspunna exoplaneten WASP-121 b. Upptäckterna av grundämnet titan och jetströmmar utmanar vår förståelse för vindar och kemi på ultraheta planeter. Sedan 1990-talet har drygt 5 800 exoplaneter, alltså planeter som kretsar kring andra stjärnor än vår sol, upptäckts. Ett av de mer extrema

The complement proteins that circulate in our blood are an important part of our immune system. They help identify bacteria, viruses and other harmful organisms, making it easier for our white blood cells to find and neutralise dangerous microbes. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now discovered a previously unknown function of the central complement protein, C3, which describes how C3

Lund University has received SEK 56 million from the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation to finance two research projects. One will aim to find innovative ways of repairing an injured brain, and the other will investigate the crucial effect silicon has on the climate. Malin Parmar, professor of Cellular Neuroscience at Lund University, will lead a five-year project, which has now been granted alm

By blocking a protein, VDAC1, in the insulin-producing beta cells, it is possible to restore their normal function in case of type 2 diabetes. In preclinical experiments, the researchers behind a new study have also shown that it is possible to prevent the development of the disease. The findings are published in the scientific journal Cell Metabolism. The researchers at Lund University in Sweden
