CASE:s koordinator, Steven Schmidt, är i gång på allvar med nya forskningsprojektet EPIC-LIFE, som ska utforska strategier för ett effektivt nyttjande av befintliga bostäder. Det handlar om samverkan med civilsamhället på riktigt – boende och andra intressenter bjuds in till spel. Forskarna vill identifiera ekonomiska och sociodemografiska faktorer relaterade till trångboddhet och benägenheten att

Hur når vi verklig påverkan med vår forskning och hur ska vi samverka för att forskningsresultat ska få genomslag? Ett sätt är att delta i sammanhang där beslutsfattarna sitter. Två nyligen genomförda aktiviteter har varit på EU-nivå och i riksdagen. Diskussion i Europaparlamentet om hur mobilitet påverkar bostads- och klimatkrisenHur parkeringspolitik påverkar både bostadsbristen och klimatomstäl

Where have the car keys got to, what is the door code to Lisa’s building, and what did I do yesterday afternoon? We all know how irritating it can be when our memory doesn’t work as it should. However, it can be difficult to know what is a ‘normal’ poor memory and what is the result of d

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Can insulin absorbed in small doses through food in early childhood get the immune system accustomed to insulin and thereby delay – or prevent – type 1 diabetes? Researchers hope to find the answer through POInT, a study starting in Skåne this autumn. Newborn babies in Skåne with a high risk of autoimmune diabetes (ty

For breast cancer to be fatal, the tumour has to send out metastases to other parts of the body. The cancer cells are spread via the blood vessels, and a research team at Lund University in Sweden has now proven that the protein ALK1 determines the extent of the tumour’s spread in the body. The higher the levels of the protein on the surface of the blood vessels, the greater their permeability to

For risk groups, a common cold can be life-threatening. Researchers in Lund have contributed to the development of a new biological medicinal product to treat severe asthma that is worsened by colds. The hope is that the drug will be approved in Sweden next year. Young children, the elderly and patients suffering from chronic lung disease such as asthma and COPD run an increased risk of being affl

Att vandra i skogen är inte bara en naturupplevelse, det är också en doftsensation. Men en ändrad doft från träden kan vara ett tecken på att skogen är klimatstressad. Detta är resultat som forskare tar med sig in i ett nytt projekt som ska utvärdera konsekvenserna av ett förändrat skogsbruk. Forskningsprojektet koordineras av Lunds universitet och finansieras av EU med 60 miljoner kronor. Kunskap
