Health benefits if cities are densified in the right way

It is not easy to be an urban planner. Cities must be built more densely because surrounding agricultural land and nature must be protected – while at the same time health requirements are high. Over a period of five years researchers at Lund University in Sweden, have closely studied densification plans in three cities and found keys to solving this difficult equation. In short, the solution is t

The war between bacteria and their virus

There is a constant war between bacteria and their viruses, bacteriophages, where both try to outsmart each other. An international study led by Lund University provided an important missing bit to the puzzle of how the bacteria defend themselves against phages. This is an important stepping stone towards developing effective phage-based therapies to be used as an alternative to antibiotics. Bacte

Foam cells in brain tumours

A research team at Lund University in Sweden has discovered a certain type of cells – foam cells – in patients with the aggressive brain tumour glioblastoma. It has been shown how these cells accelerate the cancer’s growth and that this can be successfully inhibited using a drug developed for arteriosclerosis. Glioblastoma affects around 500 Swedes every year and is the most common and most aggres

Ljus och material i fokus för Lunds universitets Science Village-etablering (Etapp 2)

Arbetet med Lunds universitets etablering i Science Village har fortsatt under året, men med en ny inriktning. I slutet av förra året beslutade LTH:s och naturvetenskapliga fakultetens styrelser att inte gå vidare med scenario 5 – en samlokalisering av fysiska institutionen och kemiska institutionen i området – på grund av kostnadsskäl och utmaningen att ha utbildning på två olika platser. Projekt
