Alzheimer's Association recently released recommendations about using blood-based biomarkers to detect Alzheimer’s disease. The recommendations are based on research conducted by Oskar Hansson, one of MultiPark’s research group leaders. “Blood-based biomarkers for Alzheimer’s are already improving the design of clinical trials, and they are very likely to revolutionize the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s

In recent years, it has become increasingly clear to researchers that the protein galectin-3 is involved in inflammatory diseases in the brain. A study led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden now shows the de facto key role played by the protein in Alzheimer’s disease. When the researchers shut off the gene th

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Two full-time technicians help biology researchers to realise new ingenious ways of gathering data on how animals move. Thanks to computer chips, wireless communication and nanotechnology, the researchers can achieve groundbreaking results. Johan Bäckman and Arne Andersson sort out the technology for CAnMove projects.

Cold weather, dry air, an overactive immune system or our modern lifestyle. The causes may vary, but an increasing number of people are suffering from atopic eczema. In particular, children from higher socioeconomic backgrounds are at higher risk of developing the condition. However, there is help available and it is important to apply treatment early says Laura von Kobyletzki, a researcher at Lun

For over 20 years, a team of researchers at Lund University has worked on developing a drug against preeclampsia – a serious disorder which annually affects around 9 million pregnant women worldwide and is one of the main causes of death in both mothers and unborn babies. Now the researchers have published a study in

The ostrich is genetically wired to adapt to rising or falling temperatures. However, when the temperature fluctuates more often, as it does with climate change, the flightless bird with a 40-gram brain finds it much more difficult. A research team at Lund University has shown that the ostrich is very sensitive to fluctuating temperatures in terms of whether it reproduces. If the temperature rises

Modern imaging techniques allows researchers to map the structure of the smallest components of cells, such as proteins. By understanding what proteins look like and how they interact with their surroundings, researchers can find keys to more effective drug therapies. In a study led from Lund University, researchers have mapped the structure of a channel in the cell membrane that regulates the tra

Neurons thrive and grow in a new type of nanowire material developed by researchers in Nanophysics and Ophthalmology at Lund University in Sweden. In time, the results might improve both neural and retinal implants, and reduce the risk of them losing their effectiveness over time, which is currently a problem. By implanting electrodes in the brain tissue one can stimulate or capture signals from d

How did we end up here? What do we do to get out of it? In climate research, it is important to understand how the world works if we are to change our behaviour and prevent future catastrophes. Researchers use mathematical formulas to try and visualise reality, in order to find out what changes we need to make. “We build models in an attempt to represent nature’s behaviour using mathematical equat

Increased use of solar cells in the future requires higher efficiency and lower production costs. Innovative research from the interdisciplinary centre NanoLund wants to optimize the nanowires so that sunlight can be harvested more efficiently.
