His ambition is to awaken our longing for a life which doesn’t revolve around wage labour. “If I had a citizen’s salary, I would do the same things I do now – read, write and have an occasional go with a scrubbing-brush, to make life more real. Others might play computer games, which would of course be perfectly OK”,

The Pereira research group has previously shown that it is possible to reprogram human skin cells into dendritic cells that strengthen the immune system. However, the efficiency of these reprogrammed cells has been shown to be very low. New studies now indicate that there are ways to increase the efficiency of these reprogrammed cells by over 75%. These findings provide mechanistic insights into h

Earlier this month, Simon Hultmark defended his Ph.D. thesis. In pursuit of his long-standing fascination for stem cells, his research over the last several years has focused on blood stem cells and cancer. All in an effort to contribute to the development of improved clinical therapies for patients with a type of blood cancer known as acute myeloid leukemia. In this interview, he tells us about h

Men with severely reduced fertility are at greater risk of developing other health conditions later in life. A research team from Lund University in Sweden has now shown that these men are also more likely to develop colorectal cancer and thyroid cancer. The link between male infertility and an increased risk of disease is a relatively new area of research in reproductive health. Previous studies

And what makes the Lamino armchair into the furniture design of the century while Norrgavel’s Länstol chair isn’t even considered a classic? “I believed, rather naively, that it was quality that determined whether a piece became a Anna Wa

A new research project led by LUCSUS will examine immobility as an adaptation strategy. Through a novel research approach, and field work in different areas affected by sea level rise and erosion, it will shed light on the communities who are unable – or unwilling – to move despite negative effects on their environment. Average sea levels have swelled about 23 cm since 1880, with about 7 cm in the

Different species of migrating bird have different genetically programmed procedures that signal when it is time to head off and when it is time to return. It may have to do with factors such as daylight, temperature, weather and the Earth’s magnetic field. These migration programmes have been studied before, but new technology and computational capacity make it possible to process large amounts o

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the abnormal accumulation and spread of the tau protein in the brain. An international study can now show how tau spreads according to four distinct patterns that lead to different symptoms with different prognoses of the affected individuals. The study was published in Nature Medicine. “In contrast to how we have so far interpreted the spread of tau in the

By reprogramming tumour cells to become the body’s defenders, Filipe Pereira and his colleagues hope to improve current cancer treatments. Right now, some of the immune system’s most important players, the dendritic cells, are patrolling your body in search of foreign substances.
