In recent years, researchers have tried to capture the electrical current that bacteria generate through their own metabolism. So far, however, the transfer of the current from the bacteria to a receiving electrode has not been efficient at all. Now, researchers from institutions including Lund University have achieve

Researchers have investigated the use of strong painkillers the years prior total knee replacement. A recent study from England and Sweden (Lund University) has investigated the number of patients with knee osteoarthritis having required treatment with opioids in the years prior to total knee replacement. Opioids are a group of strong painkillers including Morphine, Oxycodone, Tramadol and Citodon

A new study from Lund University in Sweden indicates that inherited viruses that are millions of years old play an important role in building up the complex networks that characterise the human brain. Researchers have long been aware that endogenous retroviruses constitute around five per cent of our DNA. For many years, they were considered junk DNA of no real use, a side-effect of our evolutiona

Dark excitons are material excitations not visible under light illumination. Some acquire intrinsic momentum and become inherently mobile, which can be exploited in charge transport applications. Studying the properties of such excitons via spectroscopy is extremely challenging due to their dark nature. “Although the intrinsic mobility of dark excitons may be suitable for charge transport in futur

The boundaries between biology and technology are becoming blurred. Researchers at Linköping, Lund, and Gothenburg universities in Sweden have successfully grown electrodes in living tissue using the body’s molecules as triggers. The result, published in the journal Science, paves the way for the formation of fully integrated electronic circuits in living organisms. Linking electronics to biologic
