How can life-saving HIV treatments remain reliable when global aid is uncertain? What happens when animals are reduced to “carbon emissions” in sustainability debates? And how can urban forests be made safe at night without flooding them with artificial light, disturbing local wildlife? These are just some of the questions raised in Through the Kaleidoscope of Sustainability, an innovative new ant

David Wästerfors, Veronika Burcar Alm and Erik Hannerz have published an article in New Media & Society dealing with crime case discussions on the Swedish platform Flashback. The article shows how the interactions form a "bumpy" path as the Flashback-writers together try to achieve knowledge, evidence and authority regarding the various crimes being discussed. Much of today's public discussion on

Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have identified a previously unknown precursor stage of leukemia. The discovery may help explain why an especially aggressive form of blood cancer initiates already during fetal life. When we think of cancer, we usually imagine a disease that develops over many years in adults. But for one particular group of leukemia – acute lymphoblastic leu

In healthcare, treatments developed for broad patient groups are often used. This is not always an effective approach. Sweden’s innovation agency Vinnova has therefore distributed research grants to eleven Swedish innovation environments whose research aims to develop more individually adapted healthcare for patients. The stem cell researchers at the IndiCell innovation environment have been award

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In a collaboration between Swedish and Italian researchers, the aim was to analyse how the brain interprets information from a virtual experience of touch, created by a finger prosthesis with artificial sensation. The result was – completely unexpectedly – a new method for measuring brain health. “We were able to meas

The chances of being cured of breast cancer have increased in recent decades, however if the tumour has metastasised, the disease remains essentially incurable. One reason for this could be that the metastases are detected late, after they have grown enough to cause symptoms or be seen on a radiological scan. If they could be found sooner, it might be possible to treat the new tumours. Research fi

The Research and Innovation Bill of December 2024 promised substantial new funding through a number of targeted calls for applications. At the same time, it was also decided that new core funding for research would be allocated to universities based on indicators, external grants received and the number of highly cited publications per institution. We are now beginning to see some of the results a

Blood clots can form in both arteries and veins. However, the reasons behind them differ, as do the consequences and the chances of preventing blood clots. In Sweden, almost half of all cases of venous thrombosis have a genetic explanation.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming a routine tool in biomedical research, helping scientists analyse data, understand diseases and develop new treatments. But as AI models grow larger and more complex, they also rely on increasing amounts of energy, data storage and computing power. These environmental impacts are rarely visible to the researchers using the technology. As part of this year’s
