Six researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have been awarded SEK 13.4 million from the Swedish Childhood Cancer Fund, Barncancerfonden, in its latest funding round. The projects address key challenges in childhood cancer, from understanding how the disease develops to designing treatments that are more precise and less harmful for young patients. In total, Barncancerfonden is inves
How vulnerable is humanity in the face of climate change? And how have people around the world already been impacted? These are some of the questions to be answered on 28 February by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Two researchers from Lund University participated in the final report – Martina Angela Caretta and Emily Boyd. For three years, approximately three hundred top resea

New research results now published from Lund University’s MASAI trial are even better than the initial findings from last year: AI-supported breast screening detected 29 per cent more cases of cancer compared with traditional screening. More invasive cancers were also clearly detected at an early stage using AI. Now the final part of the research study will focus on breast cancer missed by screeni

Just over two weeks after the UN climate summit in Egypt, the leaders of the world’s countries are meeting again, this time to address another acute crisis facing humanity – the loss of biodiversity. The issue is less well-known than the climate crisis and no framework corresponding to the Paris agreement is in place – something that many people hope the December summit in Montreal will rectify.

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
