B cells and the antibodies they produce play an important role in our immune system, protecting us from the microscopic enemies that make us ill. Uncovering how they form and are ‘programmed’ during development is key to better understanding the immune response to infections and vaccinations.

More than 20 years ago, Swedish Professor Susanne Iwarsson and UK Professor Judith Phillips, started collaborating across national borders. When Susanne established the graduate school SWEAH 2017, Judith immediately sent some of their PhD students to some of the courses in Sweden. Soon around 20 SWEAH PhD students and postdocs will visit their counterparts at the University in Stirling, Scotland,

When we talk about antibodies against COVID-19, we tend to mean the so-called neutralising antibodies, that offer protection by blocking the virus from invading our cells. Now, a new study from Lund University in Sweden has revealed that non-neutralising antibodies may also be important in providing protection against Covid. “Our results indicate that non-neutralising antibodies could also provide

New research is underway at Lund University, led by Dr. Vivien Horvath, a postdoctoral researcher at Lund Stem Cell Center. Supported by a new grant from the Collaborative Center for X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP), Vivien aims to improve our understanding of XDP, a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by the recent insertion of a transposable element. Transposable elements, also known as '

Allow stories to speak and weave in memories. A multidimensional vision could make urban development less stereotypical, according to ethnologist Elisabeth Högdahl, who is the manager of the research project ‟Developing and Building Locations Through Human Memories”. ‟I hope that the site developers of tomorrow will think more broadly and allow space for people’s stories.” Can memories build place

Investigation of a metre-long front flipper, uniquely preserved with fossilized soft tissues, has revealed that the giant ichthyosaur Temnodontosaurus was equipped with flow control devices that likely served to suppress self-generated noise when foraging in dimly lit pelagic environments about 183 million years ago. Thus, this visually guided megapredator relied on underwater stealth—or ‘silent s

The stiffness of tumour tissue plays a role in how cancer spreads. Furthermore, stiff tumour tissue leaves traces in the affected cells. This is shown by two recent research studies from Lund University. "This helps us to better understand how the mechanical properties of the tumour microenvironment actively drive cancer development and spread,” says Vinay Swaminathan, senior lecturer at Lund Univ
