Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a digital cognitive test for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease that is intended for use in primary care. “This digital test, which patients perform on their own with minimal involvement from healthcare personnel, improves the primary care physician's ability to determine who should be further examined by blood tests for Alzheimer's pathology ear

The role of gut microbiota in disease and health has become one of today’s hottest fields of research. In her thesis, Louise Brunkwall, nutritionist and doctoral student at Lund University in Sweden, studied overweight, obesity and the importance of diet quality in relation to our gut microbiota.  Obesity arises when the energy intake from what we eat is greater than the energy we consume. However

New results from the Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study showed an association between prolonged enterovirus infection and the development of autoimmunity to the insulin-producing pancreatic beta-cells that precedes type 1 diabetes (T1D). Notably, researchers also found that early adenovirus C infection seemed to confer protection from autoimmunity. The full findings

Farshid Jalalvand has a PhD in infection biology and vaccine development, and he has appeared frequently in the media during the debate on the Covid-19 vaccine. “When you work, as I do, with vaccines and you understand how they work, it feels important to try to explain it so that people can take decisions based on solid evidence”, he says. A lot of the criticism against vaccines occurs on social

In the past decade, knowledge of how lifestyle affects our genes, a research field called epigenetics, has grown exponentially. Researchers at the Lund University Diabetes Centre have summarised the state of scientific knowledge within epigenetics linked to obesity and type 2 diabetes in a review article published in the scientific journal Cell Metabolism.

Patients with diabetes or Parkinson’s disease can be cured with stem cells at a clinic in China. Multiple sclerosis, stroke and cerebral palsy are treated at a stem cell clinic in Mexico, and in Thailand, the deadly disease ALS can be cured with stem cells... at least according to advertising from these and other clinics around the world. Desperate individuals travel there in what has been called

How does migration and globalisation shape the lives of individuals in various countries and how does it affect the children of immigrants in terms of integration, identity, and cultural expressions? Do they themselves use the word integration?

What happens if there is a power cut and the heating stops working for a long period of time? Besides the obvious consequences – that technology doesn’t work and it gets cold – how do we, as a society, prepare for such a crisis? Do we know who is supposed to do what when it happens? And who gets to decide on the crisis plans? There are many different unexpected and sudden events that can happen. A

What are AI writing tools and how do they affect our assessments? Three main options for considering AI writing tools in assessment are: 1. to ban their use, 2. to assume that they may be used, and set tasks which incorporate them or 3. require them to be used – to fully incorporate the tools in the assessment.

Att resa har människor gjort i alla tider. Den som reser en lite längre sträcka behöver både mat och boende. Så uppstod hotell och restauranger. I dag är besöksnäringen bland de snabbast växande branscherna. Nu finns en bok som beskriver utvecklingen ur ett kulturgeografiskt perspektiv. Hotell och restauranger fanns det redan för omkring 5 000 år sedan. Det visar fynd från både Mesopotamien och Kr

For the first time, researchers have been able to measure the quantum state of electrons ejected from atoms that have absorbed high-energy light pulses. This is thanks to a new measurement technique developed by researchers at Lund University in Sweden. The results can provide a better understanding of the interaction between light and matter. When high-energy light with a very short frequency in
