Trumps attack mot de amerikanska lärosätena och deras forskning är egentligen ett bredare angrepp på de demokratiska värdena menar kunskapshistorikern Johan Östling. Genom att rasera dem banar Trumpadministrationen väg för ett helt annat slags samhälle. – Vi måste förstå vidden och djupet av denna offensiv, säger Johan Östling. som är professor i historia och föreståndare för Centrum för kunskapsh

Last month, Ella Quist defended her Ph.D. thesis. After beginning her research journey as a master’s student within our Ph.D. Preparatory Program, she dedicated the last several years to developing more efficient methods that can be used to generate functional and mature astrocytes for disease modeling of neurological disorders. In this interview, we learn more about her efforts to facilitate futu

Social media provides a new environment that makes it possible to carefully edit the image you want to project of yourself. A study from Lund University in Sweden suggests that many people are prepared to pay to ”filter out” unfavorable information. Economists Håkan Holm and Margaret Samahita have investigated how we curate our social image on the web using game theory. Previous studies have been

Up to now, researchers have believed that birds stay at home and altruistically help raise younger siblings because this is the only way to pass on genes when you cannot breed yourself. But this idea is only partially true. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that birds benefit from being helpful because it also increases their chances of reproducing in the future. “The results show t

Long life is common among bird parents that get help with childcare. This finding comes from researchers at the universities of Lund and Oxford who reviewed data from more than 9,000 studies. Being a parent can be tough. In general, animals that care for many offspring die young, at least in species where parents are not helped by others. However, in some species things are different and parents r

The global coronavirus pandemic has hit the tourism industry hard worldwide. Not only that, but it has exposed a lack of resilience to any type of downturn, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden.

The most common form of childhood cancer is acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Researchers at Lund University in Sweden, in cooperation with Karolinska Institutet, SciLifeLab and the University of Cambridge, have now carried out the most extensive analysis to date of ALL at the protein level, by studying the activity in over 8 000 genes and proteins. The results show aberrant folding in the DNA

The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos was recently recruited as a postdoc in our lab. He thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggregates elsewhere. Earlier this spring, he defended

Ett forskarlag har på syntetisk väg lyckats framställa två molekyler som annars bara bildas av mikroorganismer i extremt kontaminerat avloppsvatten från en övergiven gruva i Sydkorea. Metoden som tog fyra år att utveckla kan bana väg för nya typer av läkemedel. Glionitrin A och B är två besläktade molekyler med egenskaper som gör att de kan bli användbara i läkemedelsutveckling.

I ett framtida varmare klimat kommer avdunstningen från norra halvklotets våtmarker att öka betydligt mer än vad som tidigare varit känt. Det visar en internationell studie där forskare från Lunds universitet och Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet deltagit.
