Lund University is proposing changes to clarify how its operations in Helsingborg are strategically managed. The reason for this is that it is not always clear at present who is responsible for what, and that there is sometimes overlap between different parts of the organisation.

Researchers at the Lund Stem Cell Center, Lund University, have discovered that a population of B cells formed shortly after birth store long-term immune memory and, in mice, can give rise to leukemia much later in life. Published in Cell Reports, the findings reveal how immune events at the very beginning of life can leave lasting biological imprints, linking early development to disease in old a
