High blood pressure damages our blood vessels. It also damages our heart, our brain and our kidneys. A high blood pressure increases the risk of suffering a heart attack and stroke. However, it is not known exactly why a high blood pressure is so dangerous. – The reason is that we have effective antihypertensive medications. So why bother how pressure-induced damage occurs. We feel that this posit

In our recent study in Nature Communications, we employed cutting-edge proteomics to explore changes in blood plasma proteins during early HIV-1 infection. The results advance our understanding of early host responses and highlight mechanisms that influence viral control and disease progression.The Questions We AskedHIV-1 continues to challenge global health, especially in sub-Saharan Africa where

Enlightenment philosopher Mary Wollstonecraft believed that living in hierarchies destroyed and corrupted people deep down in their souls. “For her, inequality was the greatest threat to democracy and liberty. It is still dynamite today, as the gulf between rich and poor widens and the world is divided into lords and servants”, says Professor of Human Rights Studies Lena Halldenius. She has just p

For the first time, researchers have been able to measure the quantum state of electrons ejected from atoms that have absorbed high-energy light pulses. This is thanks to a new measurement technique developed by researchers at Lund University in Sweden. The results can provide a better understanding of the interaction between light and matter. When high-energy light with a very short frequency in
