Det finns en tydlig önskan i samhället att återvinna mer, både näringsämnen och olika material. Men problemet med recycling är att föroreningar kan följa med. I ett projekt på CEC har man identifierat mikroplaster i både kompostjord och biogödsel. På Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC) pågår tre olika projekt där man undersöker olika återvunna produkter och material för att se om de inneh

När ett barn får diagnosen typ 1 diabetes anpassar sig föräldrarna ganska snabbt till situationen. Men känslor av sorg, ilska och skuld lever kvar flera år efter insjuknandet. ”Jag har anpassat mig men inte accepterat.” säger en pappa vars son har diabetes. Forskare från Health and Social Care Research Centre vid universitetet i Cardiff, Storbritannien, har djupintervjuat 17 föräldrar, tio mammor

Orsakar epigenetiska förändringar typ 2-diabetes eller uppstår förändringarna först efter att en person har blivit sjuk? En ny studie av forskare vid Lunds universitet ger ökat stöd för att epigenetiska förändringar kan orsaka typ 2-diabetes. Forskarna bakom de nya forskningsrönen vill nu utveckla metoder som kan användas för att förebygga sjukdomen. Generna ärver vi från våra föräldrar och de änd

Mycket diabetesforskning handlar om att förstå vad som händer när de insulinproducerande cellerna förstörs. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har valt ett annat angreppssätt. Det går ut på att förstå vad som skyddar cellerna. I sin forskning visar de hur ett protein i kroppens immunförsvar skyddar de insulinproducerande cellerna från att inflammeras och dö. Studien är publicerad i PNAS. Även om det f

En behandling som har visat sig minska utvecklingen av åderförfettningsplack hos möss har nu testats på människor med psoriasis. Jan Nilsson vid Lunds universitet är en av forskarna bakom den kliniska studien som visade på en minskad inflammation i kranskärlen, vilket i sin tur kan ge minskad risk för hjärtinfarkt och död hos dessa patienter. Personer med diabetes är ännu en patientgrupp som kan k

Typ 2-diabetes är en komplex sjukdom som kan leda till allvarliga hälsoproblem. Därför är det viktigt att förutse vem som är i riskzonen att utveckla sjukdomen. En stor tvärvetenskaplig studie som har letts av Lunds universitet har identifierat en biomarkör i blodet som kan förutse typ 2-diabetes flera år innan diagnos kan ställas. Diabetes är ett växande folkhälsoproblem, som kan leda till hjärt-

Vad innebär det att få diagnosen adhd och hur kan vi som samhälle bli bättre på att stötta dem och andra sårbara barn och unga? Pia Tallberg, specialist i neuropsykologi som precis doktorerat vid Lunds universitet, har i sin forskning undersökt hur barn med adhd utvecklas över tid. För några veckor sedan disputerade Pia Tallberg med en avhandling där hon undersökt hur kognitiva funktioner (som rör

Four researchers from Lund University in Sweden have received an ERC Starting Grant. The researchers and their respective fields are Filip Lenrick (industrial production), Colin Olito (evolutionary ecology), Milda Pucetaite (microbiological ecology) and Daria Davitti, (international law). The last-named is the first researcher at a department of law in Sweden to receive an ERC Grant. The ERC Start

Earlier this fall, the Swedish Cancer Foundation (Cancerfonden) distributed 133 million SEK to 41 cancer researchers at Lund University. Nearly a quarter of this - 28 million SEK - has been awarded to 11 researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center, funding translational research which seeks to advance cancer diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. Isabella Artner, Associate Professor, is among the 11 res

For two decades, researchers at Lund University's strategic research area, Lund Stem Cell Center, have focused on developing and refining stem cell research to improve human health. Now that the 20th anniversary is approaching, it is time to reflect on the progress made and the possibilities that researchers see for stem cell research in the future. Stem cells can make any inventor green with envy

In connection with a new report on measures to mitigate climate change, researchers at Lund University in Sweden see some hopeful signs. Among other things, Lars J Nilsson, Professor of Environmental and Energy Systems at Lund University, thinks there are good prospects for achieving zero emissions by 2050 in industries such as steel, cement, and chemicals, which are currently responsible for majo

An extensive study has confirmed that the risk of developing coeliac disease is connected to the amount of gluten children consume. The new study is observational and therefore does not prove causation; however, it is the most comprehensive of its kind to date. The results are presented in the prestigious journal JAMA.

How does digital technology affect our work situation? Could data collected to measure our performance lead to old-fashioned micromanagement? Should higher education take after healthcare with regard to the boundary between work and spare time?

For many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, the health care system was strained already before the coronavirus crisis. Lack of intensive care units and respirators and the difficult economic situation in most African countries limit the resources to combat the pandemic.

The forest is currently at the centre of an intense debate. It concerns, in simplified terms, which climate benefits the forest can provide, either by sequestering carbon in standing forest, or by being used to substitute fossil fuels and fossil-intensive materials.
