Using the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope in Chile, astronomers have made detailed observations of the mysterious exoplanet WASP-121 b. The discoveries of the element titanium and jet streams challenge our understanding of the winds and chemistry found on ultrahot planets. Just over 5,800 exoplanets – planets that orbit stars other than our Sun – have been discovered since the

– I have red cells in my dish! When the phone call from PhD student Fábio Rosa came through, Professor Filipe Pereira knew that this was the start of something big. All their work had been leading to this moment. The red cells in the dish were from a mouse, and Filipe and his colleagues had been trying to reprogramme them into dendritic cells, specfically type 1 conventional dendritic cells, (cDC1

Patienter med diabetes typ 2 behandlas ofta med blodförtunnande läkemedel för att förebygga hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar. Men diabetespatienter som inte haft stroke, hjärtinfarkt eller andra hjärtsjukdomar blir inte hjälpta av blodförtunnande läkemedel. Det visar en studie av forskare vid Sahlgrenska akademin. yp 2 diab

Enzymet arginas kan spela en nyckelroll för uppkomsten av hjärt- kärlsjukdom hos personer som redan har diabetes typ 2. Arginas motverkar enligt forskarna bildningen av skyddande kväveoxid i blodkärlen – och behandling som hämmar detta enzym visade sig minska risken för kärlkramp hos diabetespatienterna. Detta visar

Identical twins share the same DNA, but one twin can suffer from type 2 diabetes while the other twin does not develop the disease. A study led by Lund University in Sweden has now discovered that there are differences in gene activity in twins where only one sibling had developed the disease. The researchers’ discovery could contribute to the development of new treatment methods. “Identical twins

Physical violence is rarely something people think about or act out. Even violence specialists - people with a propensity for violence and a capacity to cause devastating damage - are belligerent only a fraction of their time awake. Sociology professor David Wästerfors is an anomaly. He has thought about violence a lot. This fall, Professor Wästerfors published some of his thoughts in the book Vio

Can dragonflies migrate thousands of miles across the Indian Ocean, from India via the Maldives to Africa, and back again? An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has used models and simulations to find out if the hypothesis could be true. In 2009, marine biologist Charles Anderson put forward a hypothesis after observing globe skimmer dragonflies (Pantala flavescens) on th

A month ago, I made a visit to the University of Gothenburg’s Research Board. While there, I was asked, “Why has Lund University performed so incredibly well in Horizon Europe?” I counted myself lucky to have received an update beforehand from Research Services that we have been very successful, otherwise I would have been caught off guard. It just goes to show that we must update our view of ours
