Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a computational model which is effective in detecting and identifying genetic mutations in breast tumours. The study, the largest of its kind in the world, includes results from over 3 200 patients with breast cancer. The researchers used RNA sequencing, a sensitive, precise tool which has very gradually started to be applied clinically, alth

SWEAH's travelers left an almost 30-degree Sweden and arrived in typical September rain and Stirling half as hot. But then the sun came and a packed program with, among other things, lectures and workshops on quantitative and qualitative methods, and a competition where the best presentations were crowned. The postdoctoral students competed in their own class, where Thomas Lowe from the Netherland

Gabriel Börner preferred playing pinball to studying at upper secondary school and therefore failed to get into a medical programme. Today, he is a senior consultant in surgery at Helsingborg Hospital and a researcher at Lund University. He has invented a “sewing machine” to suture patient’s wounds after abdominal surgery. Although the journey there was longer than he could ever have imagined, he

We are very happy to announce that Professor Anna Falk has joined Lund Stem Cell Center. Anna and her research team are focused on understanding the mechanisms that control human brain development and how defects in these may contribute to the development of brain disorders. The Falk group are also exploring the regenerative potential of induced pluripotent stem cell derived neural cells for their

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,

Using machine learning and a large volume of data on genes and existing drugs, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have identified a combination of statins and phenothiazines that is particularly promising in the treatment of the aggressive form of neuroblastoma. The results from experimental trials showed slowing of tumour growth and higher survival rates. The childhood cancer, neuroblastoma

Neuroblastoma is a tumor disease that primarily affects young children. The survival rate is the lowest of all childhood cancers. Now, a research team at Lund University has discovered that a specific gene is associated with a poorer prognosis. The study is published in the journal Science Advances. Every year, about twenty children in Sweden are diagnosed with neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma is a ca

When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, some shopping geographies had difficulties while others proved to be more resilient. Devrim Umut Aslan discusses what we can learn from these resilient places. A global pandemic hit the world, radically changing how shoppers shop and how they move around in cities. Sweden’s handling of the pandemic had been rather ‘relaxed’; it had not enforced any strict lock-downs

Lao Saal has a mission; to make it possible to – just by testing a blood sample – reveal, not only if you have cancer, but also which therapies may be most effective, and how well is the cancer actually responding to treatment. His idea is to trace the genetic material that escapes from tumours and into the blood circulation. “It’s a great feeling when you can go the whole way from having an idea
