Kan det amerikanska sjukvårdssystemet dra nytta av ett forskningsprojekt i skånska primärvården? Ja, det tycker USA’s nationella forskningsfinansiär NIH. Ett anslag på 33 miljoner kronor går nu till Oskar Hansson vid Lunds universitet och hans senaste projekt inom alzheimerforskning. Vi vill se om diagnostiken av Alzheimers i primärvården kan underlättas genom att använda blodprovet. Oskar Hansson

Current knowledge of food safety is based on traditional foods that include animal products. Corresponding knowledge of plant-based foods lags behind. “There is a naive belief that plant-based food is safer than animal-based food. Unfortunately, this is not the case,” says Jenny Schelin, a researcher on food safety at Lund University in Sweden. “Plant-based foods are just as vulnerable to the same

Donald Trump’s background in professional wrestling paved the way for his political career. By using the wrestling concept “kayfabe” – the art of making staged events seem real – Trump embodies the message that politics was always fake, while masquerading as authentic. This has tapped into an already existing disillusionment with the American political system. It can also explain why playing the v

When we talk about antibodies against COVID-19, we tend to mean the so-called neutralising antibodies, that offer protection by blocking the virus from invading our cells. Now, a new study from Lund University in Sweden has revealed that non-neutralising antibodies may also be important in providing protection against Covid. “Our results indicate that non-neutralising antibodies could also provide
