After a five-year pause, the Lund Stem Cell Center’s outreach initiative Taking Science to Schools – Borrow a Scientist has returned, once again bringing researchers face-to-face with students across southern Sweden. In March 2025, nine researchers from the Center visited more than 100 students at Malmö Latinskola, Filbornaskolan in Helsingborg, and Söderportgymnasiet in Kristianstad. The sessions

Researchers at the Lund Stem Cell Center at Lund University have developed a stem cell-based therapy that rejuvenates the aging blood and immune systems in mice without harsh treatments like chemotherapy or radiation. The findings recently published in the journal Nature Communications is a step toward safer, non-toxic treatments for age-related blood disorders and immune decline. As we age, the s

Each year, around 350 children in Sweden are diagnosed with cancer. Thanks to progress in research and treatment, six out of seven children today survive. But unlike cancer in adults, we don't know what causes most childhood cancers to develop. This spring Barncancerfonden, the Swedish Childhood Cancer Foundation, awarded SEK 64 million to 29 researchers across the country. The funding includes po

For decades, large stretches of human DNA were dismissed as ‘junk’ and considered to serve no real purpose. In a new study in Cell Genomics, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show that the repetitive part of the human genome plays an active role during early brain development and may also be relevant for understanding brain diseases. DNA carries the complete set of instructions an organism

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease that usually requires lifelong treatment. A central goal for many diabetes researchers is to develop new cell therapies that can cure the disease. The Bo and Kerstin Hjelt Diabetes Foundation now provides support two diabetes researchers at Lund University working to learn more about diabetes. Among them is Associate Professor Isabella Artner, from the Lund Uni

An international team led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden has identified the molecular tools needed to reprogram ordinary cells into specialised immune cells. The discovery, published in Immunity, could pave the way for more precise and personalised cancer immunotherapies. The team has taken an important step toward harnessing the immune system to fight cancer. Their work describes how

Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have identified a previously unknown precursor stage of leukemia. The discovery may help explain why an especially aggressive form of blood cancer initiates already during fetal life. When we think of cancer, we usually imagine a disease that develops over many years in adults. But for one particular group of leukemia – acute lymphoblastic leu
