This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In the hunt for better knowledge on the aging process, researchers from Lund University have now enlisted the help of small birds. A new study investigates various factors which affect whether chicks are born with long or short chromosome ends, called telomeres. The genetic make-up of our cells consists of genes lined

Peptides from the common bacteria Staphylococcus aureus speed up the pathological aggregation of α-synuclein, a protein linked to Parkinson’s disease. This was discovered by researchers at MultiPark and published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. Staphylococcus aureus is carried by 30–70% of the general population as a commensal bacterium. It produces a special kind of peptides c

Vid typ 2-diabetes försämras bukspottskörtelns förmåga att tillverka och utsöndra insulin, en komplex process som ännu inte är helt klarlagd. En ny studie av forskare vid Lunds universitet visar att jonkanalen Piezo1 spelar en viktig roll för insulinutsöndringen och kan bli betydelsefull för framtida behandlingar av diabetes. Typ 2-diabetes kännetecknas av nedsatt glukostolerans och det innebär at

Innebär förhandlingarna om det svenska NATO-medlemskap att regeringen är beredd att tumma på grundläggande mänskliga rättigheter och värderingar? Risken finns menar två statsvetare. Turkiet, Sverige och Finland tog sommaren 2022 fram ett avtal för att Turkiet ska godkänna NATO-ansökan. Avtalet signerades vid ett NATO-möte i Madrid. Även om de officiella förhandlingarna satts på paus av Turkiet eft

Today, Lund University celebrates its annual academic ceremony to mark the University’s inauguration in 1668. The University was founded in an era of repeated wars between Sweden and Denmark. Nowadays, we live in peace and freedom with our neighbour. Today, on 4 March 2022, when we celebrate the annual academic ceremony, Lund University will raise the flag for Ukraine. It is a demonstration of sup

Even though childhood cancer is rare, it affects around 350 children and adolescents under the age of 18 each year in Sweden. That is almost one child every day. Due to improved treatment, 80 per cent of these children survive their cancer. Why do children develop cancer? That mystery has yet to be solved. Children suffer from other types of cancer than adults and the determining factor is the gen

The results from the autumn travel habits survey show that a majority of the University’s staff (approx. 80%) get to and from work by walking, cycling or using public transport. This is a higher percentage than for other large organisations in Lund. However, there is potential for even more people to commute sustainably by investments in public transport and measures to promote cycling on campus.

Generativ AI är en fråga som engagerar många av oss just nu. Den finns i samtalen i korridorerna, i undervisningen och i hur vi arbetar. Och även om allt arbete ännu inte syns utåt, så pågår det mycket – både på universitetsgemensam nivå och här hos oss på fakulteten – för att förstå vad detta betyder för våra utbildningar och hur vi ska anamma AI i vår verksamhet på bästa sätt.För oss i fakultets

Congratulations, Katarina Steding-Ehrenborg, Docent at Lund University! You’re one of six sports researchers who will take part in a two-year development program in which the Swedish Olympic Committee is now investing. What will the investment mean for you? – The support from the SOC means that we can carry out long-term studies on how strenuous exercise affects the heart and thus help make sports
