I oktober 2021 publicerade vi en intervju om arbetet med att ta fram en systematisk Cochraneöversikt om insatser på arbetsplatser för att minska smittspridning av covid-19. Nu är den systematiska översikten klar och publicerad, resultatet överraskade forskarna. Det publiceras miljoner vetenskapliga artiklar varje år, och under pandemin kom det många tusentals som handlade om covid-19. Det är ingen

När covid-19-pandemin svepte över världen 2020 blev mRNA-vaccinerna räddningen för många – men i bakgrunden fanns en annan, mindre känd hjälte: lipidnanopartikeln. Utan dessa små ”fettdroppar” hade vaccinet aldrig kunnat levereras in i kroppens celler. Och faktum är att den lär få fler uppdrag framöver. Det kan vara den som löser leverans av gensaxen och de nya genterapierna in i kroppen. När värl
