När forskningsresultat ska ta steget från labb till patient, skruvas kraven upp. Det är just där många lovande projekt börjar hacka. – Vi vill vara bryggan mellan forskningen och patienten, så att lovande projekt inte fastnar i den svåra övergången, säger den nya pre-GMP-facilitetens föreståndare, Sara Nolbrant. Och så försvinner hon in i facilitetens labb-labyrint med nästa grupp intresserade; fo

Ögonläkaren och forskaren Lotta Gränse vid Lunds universitet och Skånes universitetssjukhus har kunnat visa att ögondroppar med kortison kan förhindra utvecklingen av den mycket allvarliga ögonsjukdomen ROP hos spädbarn. Det har revolutionerat behandlingen och innebär att huvuddelen av barn i södra sjukvårdsregionen med svår ROP inte behöver traditionell behandling i narkos för att undvika svår sy

Lotta Gränse, ophthalmologist and researcher Lund University and Skåne University Hospital has demonstrated that eye drops containing cortisone can prevent the development of the very serious eye disease ROP in infants. This has revolutionised treatment and means that the majority of children in Sweden’s Southern Healthcare Region with severe ROP do not need conventional treatment under anaesthesi

The Lund Stem Cell Center at Lund University has relaunched its Professional Development Program (PDP), which provides PhD students support beyond research, equipping them with the personal and professional skills essential for long-term career success. While most doctoral programs focus on scientific expertise, the PDP broadens that approach by equipping students with skills for career growth, se

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The research quality evaluation, RQ20, is now in full swing. The evaluation-fatigue that project leaders Freddy Ståhlberg and Mats Benner expected to see among their university colleagues has not materialised. “We have encountered a strong engagement and interest!” The 200 or so external advisors for the 32 panels are

Missiologist Mika Vähäkangas thinks that Scandinavians can be a little self-righteous. He says that he has become who he is in great part thanks to his research in Africa – there he learnt what he knows about compassion. Over nearly thirty years, he first carried out missionary work and then research, teaching and fieldwork in Africa on African Christianity. "It has always been Africa. My pare

Jacob Vogel and his research team will develop computational simulations of Alzheimer’s disease enabling virtual exper
An international team of researchers has investigated whether oral insulin can prevent early signs of type 1 diabetes and clinical diagnosis in children with an increased risk of developing the disease. Although treatment with oral insulin could not prevent development of diabetes-related autoantibodies, oral insulin delayed the rate of disease progression in children who developed such autoantibo

When the Covid-19 pandemic swept across the world in 2020, the mRNA vaccines came to the rescue of many people – but in the background there was another, lesser known, hero: the lipid nanoparticle. Without these tiny “fat droplets”, the vaccines could never have been delivered into the body’s cells. And the fact is that these small particles will probably have more assignments in the future.
