This brain disease can be inherited from generation to generation and begins insidiously, making it increasingly difficult to regulate emotions, thoughts, then movements. There is no treatment that slows

Two therapy dogs instead of one. There was a big turnout on May 5 when the pop-up event "Mental Health on Campus" was held in the Forum Medicum entrance. The goal was to give students a chance to share their thoughts on mental health. Either on a digital bulletin board or post-it notes on-site. Two therapy dog teams visited the event. Carina Tjörnstrand, PhD in Occupational Therapy, came with the

Opioids work against severe pain but the risks of side effects and addiction are high. In the USA alone, 26 people die every day from overdoses. Now researchers in an international collaboration have investigated how common opioid prescriptions are for osteoarthritis patients in Sweden. It emerged that every fourth patient was prescribed opioids at some point between November 2014 and October 2015

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

The battle for real democracy in the Middle East will largely be decided in schools. The role of education in a democracy was also the theme of a workshop in Alexandria, where Swedish researchers met their Egyptian counterparts. The USI network organised the event on a hot topic in a country that needs to fight for democracy if it is to take root.   “Democracy in Egypt isn’t going to work unless p

Under de senaste åren har såväl forskare vid Lunds universitet som flera andra internationella forskargrupper framgångsrikt publicerat nya rön kring tidig och korrekt diagnostik av demenssjukdomar.

On October 31st, representatives from across the globe will gather in Glasgow for two weeks to attend the UN climate change conference COP26. Expectations are high following last year's cancelled conference, and the IPCC report released in August. What can we expect from the meeting? Five Lund researchers give answers. How far do countries' climate ambitions go? As part of the Paris Agreement in 2

Forskare vid Lunds universitet visar i en studie att kraftig övervikt, obesitas, ökar risken för fler cancerformer än vad man tidigare känt till. Resultaten visar på samband mellan obesitas och risken att utveckla 31 olika cancerformer eller subgrupper till cancerdiagnoser. Kraftig övervikt, även kallat fetma eller obesitas, är en kronisk sjukdom som ofta kräver långsiktig behandling och som även

Lewy body disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's disease. A research group from Lund University has now shown that the disease can be detected before symptoms appear, using a spinal fluid test. The studies are published in Nature Medicine, where the researchers also demonstrate that reduced sense of smell is strongly linked to Lewy body disease even before ot

More than half of teenage girls experienced heavy bleeding and 40 per cent had an iron deficiency. The research, led from Lund University in Sweden, also shows that young teenage girls who experience heavy menstrual bleeding – and are therefore at greater risk of iron deficiency – can be identified using a simple questionnaire.

Att det är bra för hälsan att äta mycket grönsaker, fullkorn och baljväxter är välkänt. Mer överraskande är att personer som äter klimatvänligt också uppvisar näringsvärden som är bättre än forskarna hade väntat sig. Det visar en ny studie vid Lunds universitet.

However, two safety challenges which need to be solved along the way, and which are different for ships compared to cars, are navigation without GPS and remote control.
