Trump’s intervention in Venezuela was physical, concrete, and armed. What is happening now is decisive for the country’s future, but it also affects the entire region, according to Andrés Palacio, researcher at LUSEM. Historically, the United States has on several occasions asserted Central America, the Caribbean, and South America as its sphere of interest. Since the end of the Second World War,

It can take a long time between words and action at the University, sometimes a little too long. This is one of the reasons the University management has developed a platform for strategic work. It speaks to what is most important to the University right now and will help it to act much faster as the world changes. Pandemic, war in Europe, fake news, increased polarisation at home and abroad and,

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

For many years there has been an on-going discussion about how academic freedom is being challenged in many parts of the world, including Sweden. And when even some of the strongest academic bastions in the world such as Harvard are now fighting for their independence against the American federal administration’s political directives, it is clear that academia has not been crying wolf. Academic fr

Petra Holmberg won the Researchers’ Grand Prix heat in Helsingborg on 7 October. She presented her research – on the risks involved when 80 per cent of Gen Z use chatbots to manage stress or anxiety – to an audience of over 500 upper secondary school pupils. In her presentation she talked to an animated chatbot to illustrate how AI can give destructive advice to young people who already feel unwel

Narkosgaser är potenta växthusgaser vars totala globala påverkan hittills varit okänd. Nu publiceras en studie i The Lancet Planetary Health ledd från Lunds universitet som visar att utsläppet från växthusgaser från narkosgaser minskar med 27 procent över de senaste tio åren. Genom att ersätta den narkosgas som har störst klimatpåverkan, hade klimatpåverkan från narkosgaser kunnat minska med ytter

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har gjort den hittills mest detaljerade kartläggningen av epigenomet i de celler som styr kroppens blodsocker. Studien, som publiceras i Nature Metabolism, visar hur kemiska förändringar på DNA påverkar både insulinproducerande betaceller och glukagonproducerande alfaceller – och hur dessa mönster förändras vid typ 2-diabetes. Alla celler i kroppen har samma uppsättn

Nästan hälften av alla demensfall kan bero på riskfaktorer som vi själva kan påverka, till exempel rökning och högt blodtryck. En ny studie från Lunds universitet visar vilka riskfaktorer som är förknippade med två av våra vanligaste demenssjukdomar - Alzheimers sjukdom och vaskulär demens. Under livet påverkas risken att utveckla demens av aspekter som vi inte kan förändra – såsom ålder, kön och
