The EAT-Lancet diet is a framework designed to promote environmental sustainability while also preventing common diseases such as type 2 diabetes. How do we know if the diet actually works? An international research team studied seven dietary scores and found that two of them were particularly good at evaluating adherence to the diet. Reliable diet scores are important when developing sustainable

Carin Alegre Castegren When entering the lower gallery (KHM1) of Malmö Art Academy to see the MFA exhibition entitled “Tremeluz” by Carin Maria Alegre Castegren, I was met by numerous paintings, which all seemed to be in a state of flux. They had a lightness to them, an openness as well as something allusive. When reading the exhibition text, it was clear that Castegren had been thinking of light

Close proximity between the laboratory and the clinic, an identity that is tied to the division and not only to the different research groups, and lunch conversations about everything between heaven and earth. Thoas Fioretos, Felix Mitelman and Fredrik Mertens. According to three professors, these are some of the reasons why the Division of Clinical Genetics within the Department of Laboratory Med

For a decade now, the Rehabilitation Medicine research group’s work on spinal cord injuries (SCI’s) has had a far-reaching impact. In many areas, this is research at the global cutting edge; not least, in terms of following the same group of individuals as they live – and age – with spinal cord injuries. Research group leader Jan Lexell is preparing to flex the group’s academic muscles further in

A new study by researchers at Lund University supports the notion that patients with type 2 diabetes should be divided into subgroups and given individualised treatment. The study demonstrates that there are distinct epigenetic differences between different groups of patients with type 2 diabetes. The epigenetic markers were also associated with different risks of developing common complications i

Much research on diabetes focuses on understanding what happens when the insulin-producing cells are destroyed. Researchers at Lund University have instead chosen to investigate what protects the insulin-producing cells. Their research shows that a protein of the immune system protects the insulin-producing cells from inflammation and death. The study, published in PNAS, is an example of basic res
