Eating cheese and cream with a high fat content may be linked to a lower risk of developing dementia. This is shown by a new large-scale study from Lund University. The researchers analysed the dietary habits of more than 27,000 people and linked these to the occurrence of dementia over a follow-up period of up to 25 years. The debate about low-fat diets has long shaped our health advice and influ

Cancer is a genetic disease, caused by a change in the genes which make up our DNA. Normally one change or mutation is not enough to trigger the development of cancer, instead cancer is typically comprised of a combination of genetic mutations. Researchers at Lund University have now revealed a novel somatic gene mutation is involved in the formation and progression of acute myeloid leukemia. The
David Gisselsson Nord and Tony Ingesson both love spy novels and have a nerdy interest in history. Their shared curiosity resulted in an interdisciplinary collaboration about how it might be possible to inspire smarter cancer treatment with the help of methods from espionage and intelligence analysis. Tony Ingesson finds it fairly easy to show a bit of attitude in front of the camera. David Gissel
