Han vill väcka vår längtan efter ett liv där allt inte handlar om lönearbete. – Om jag hade medborgarlön skulle jag göra samma sak som nu – läsa, skriva och också ta ett tag med skurborsten ibland, det gör livet mer verkligt. Andra skulle kanske spela dataspel vilket så klart vore helt okej, säger sociologen Roland

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Nationalekonomen och forskaren Andreas Bergh är starkt engagerad i samhällsdebatten. Få saker gör honom riktigt arg. Det skulle vara dumhet i så fall. Som när Malmö stad missar att skapa enkla instegsjobb genom orimliga krav på dem som vill starta rullande matbilar – så kallade food trucks. – Så fungerar den tröga s

Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain’s support cells into parvalbumin-positive cells. These cells act as the brain’s rapid-braking system and are significantly involved in schizophrenia, epilepsy and other neurological conditions. Parvalbumin cells play a central role in keeping brain activity in equilibrium. The

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the “recipe” for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have now created a library of the 400 factors needed for reprogramming and have begun the work of finding the right combination – the recipe – for each type of immune cell. Our immune system c

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show how a cell-free cartilage structure can safely guide bone repair without triggering strong immune responses. The transplant has been successfully tested in animal models, and the next step is to evaluate the tissue engineering approach in humans.

Despite groundbreaking research, many cell and gene therapies do not make it all the way to the patients. Researchers and clinicians in Lund have now presented a new model for cooperation that will shorten lead times and reduce costs – with the aim to give more patients access to advanced, potentially curative treatments. In recent years, cell and gene therapies have shown promising results in eve

For many cancer patients, successful treatment depends on whether the disease is detected early or responds to existing therapies. With new grants from the Swedish Cancer Society (Cancerfonden), three postdoctoral researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center will investigate new drivers of cancer development and how the immune system can be more effectively mobilised against tumors.
