Ett hundratal exklusiva astronomiböcker från 1545 till 1799 har flyttats från Astronomibiblioteket till Universitetsbiblioteket. LUM var med när böckerna packades, men också flera månader senare efter att de vistats i karantän och det var dags att katalogisera, kapsla och magasinera. Nästa år ska de mest sällsynta skrifterna digitaliseras och kanske även ställas ut. Utanför Astronomihusets fönster

Med hjälp av maskininlärning och en stor mängd data om gener och befintliga läkemedel, har lundaforskare identifierat en kombination av statiner och fentiaziner som särskilt lovande vid behandling av den aggressiva formen av neuroblastom. I experimentella studier – i möss med mänskliga tumörceller – visade resultaten på bromsad tumörtillväxt och längre överlevnad. Ovanlig men allvarlig form av bar

För att kunna programmera om lättillgängliga celler till specifika immunceller som bekämpar olika sjukdomar, måste man känna till “receptet” för omvandlingen. Nu har forskare vid Lunds universitet skapat ett bibliotek av de 400 faktorer som behövs för omprogrammering och påbörjat arbetet med att hitta rätt kombination – recept – för varje typ av immuncell. Vårt immunförsvar består av skilda typer

Nästan hälften av alla demensfall kan bero på riskfaktorer som vi själva kan påverka, till exempel rökning och högt blodtryck. En ny studie från Lunds universitet visar vilka riskfaktorer som är förknippade med två av våra vanligaste demenssjukdomar - Alzheimers sjukdom och vaskulär demens. Under livet påverkas risken att utveckla demens av aspekter som vi inte kan förändra – såsom ålder, kön och

Vad innehåller egentligen ett andetag – och hur påverkar luften vi andas vår hälsa och samhället i stort? Och hur skyddar vi oss från eventuella hot i den livsnödvändiga luften? Det är frågor som det nya forskningsprojekt ATLAS vill besvara genom att följa luftens påverkan från molekyl till samhälle. Projektet har fått Vetenskapsrådets ”Nätverksbidrag för planering av framtida excellenskluster för

Perhaps not, argues Yulia Vakulenko. At least not when it comes to the delivery service needs and preferences of rural versus urban e-consumers in the age of consumer-centric supply chain management. The new age of consumer-centric supply chain management highlights the benefits of placing the consumer at the core of strategy development and operations design. Recent e-commerce shifts translate in

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have conducted a clinical study to show how a woman’s genetic profile provides information on which hormone treatment is most effective for in vitro fertilisation (IVF). The researchers have now developed a simple oral swab test that shows which hormone therapy is the best option for IVF treatment About 15 per cent of all couples of reproductive age are inv

Kompetensportalen, Lucat, Lupin, Lubas and LUCRIS. Those are the names of some of Lund University’s administrative systems. They are now also the names of five new bacteriophages that have recently been discovered in the ponds of Lund University’s Botanical Gardens. Bacteriophages – often abbreviated to phages – are viruses that attack bacteria. Phages are astonishingly effective assassins – these

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

A project at Lund University in Sweden has trained an AI model to identify breast cancer patients who could be spared from axillary surgery. The model analyses previously unutilised information in mammograms and pinpoints with high accuracy the individual risk of metastasis in the armpit. A newly completed study shows that the model indicates that just over 40 per cent of today’s axillary surgery
