We follow up our systematic work environment management every year. This year’s follow-up paints an overall picture that I think is worth pausing to consider. I can see a positive shift in the way we discuss and address work environment issues. Many people have been involved in this development, and I would therefore like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to take pride in this year’s

A lack of phosphorus in forest soil could lead to an acceleration of global climate change. This is shown by new research that has investigated the complex balance between carbon dioxide fertilisation, phosphorus deficiency and tree growth. The world’s forests are vital in the fight against climate change, as they absorb around a quarter of the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere. Trees

The headlines about non-functioning security alarms, about cameras and soon also AI in the home service, are getting more and more. But what happens when the welfare technology does not work? Next year, a new research project will be launched which will investigate this very thing. The CASE researchers, associate professors Gunilla Carlsson, Connie Lethin and Agneta Malmgren Fänge, have in previou

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain’s support cells into parvalbumin-positive cells. These cells act as the brain’s rapid-braking system and are significantly involved in schizophrenia, epilepsy and other neurological conditions. Parvalbumin cells play a central role in keeping brain activity in equilibrium. They control nerv

Högutbildade föräldrar får nästan 30 procent mer personlig assistans till sina barn med funktionsnedsättning, än lågutbildade föräldrar. Skillnaderna kan bero på att lågutbildade föräldrar har svårare att navigera i systemet och driva igenom sina ärenden, vilket kan leda till ökade skillnader i hälsa och livskvalitet. Under det senaste decenniet har förändringar i regelverket inom LSS (lagen om st

Nya biomarkörer gör det lättare att upptäcka Alzheimer och ställa rätt diagnos – något som blir allt viktigare när det nu finns behandlingar som kan bromsa sjukdomen. Inom MultiPark utvecklas också en AI-modell som i framtiden kan göra det möjligt att upptäcka flera demensrelaterade tillstånd med ett enda blodprov. Samtidigt försöker forskarna förstå hur demens kan förebyggas, bland annat genom at
