There were fewer cases of breast cancer between two screening rounds, and of the cancers that did develop, fewer were advanced or aggressive. The final results from Lund University's MASAI trial are now available, and they show further benefits of AI-supported breast cancer screening. The study has already shown that AI support in mammography screening contributes to a 29 percent increase in detec

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have carried out the most detailed mapping to date of the epigenome in the cells that regulate the body’s blood sugar levels. The study, published in Nature Metabolism, shows how chemical changes to DNA affect both insulin-producing beta cells and glucagon-producing alpha cells – and how these patterns change in type 2 diabetes. All cells in the body have t

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden collected wild flatworms from Malmö’s largest park, Pildammsparken. These creatures are masters at regenerating after injury. Now, for the first time, the worms’ unique ability to regenerate has been harnessed to help accelerate wound healing in human skin models. A research team at Lund University was recently contacted by researchers at a Korean skincar

Almost half of all dementia cases can be attributed to risk factors that we potentially can influence ourselves, such as smoking and high blood pressure. A new study from Lund University shows which risk factors are associated with two of our most common causes of dementia – Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. During our lifetime, the risk of developing dementia is influenced by aspects tha

Jonna Bornemark är en av Sveriges mest inflytelserika samtida filosofer. Hon har bidragit till att ompröva vår syn på etik, omdöme och människosyn inom medicin och hälso- och sjukvården. Nu är det är helt rätt tid att vara filosof. Vi befinner oss mitt i en samhällelig kris, där bland annat miljö- och migrationsfrågor gör de existensiella frågorna viktigare än någonsin.  – Filosofiska frågor är in

En katalysator som kommer att modernisera naturvetenskapliga fakulteten, både i Brunnshög och på Sölvegatan. Dekan Sven Lidin må ha blivit ”närsynt, lönnfet och medelålders” under sina tio år i symbios med Science Village. Men hans framtidsvisioner är vitalare än någonsin. Det är en sådan där blek septemberförmiddag då de digitala mötena avlöser varandra. Men några minuter över 11 kommer naturvete

What obstacles stand in the way of user-centred working, and what is needed to succeed? Many organisations want to adopt a user-centred approach, but a new doctoral thesis shows that success is elusive when conflicting demands and a lack of organisational support throw a spanner in the works. Today, there is considerable pressure on organisations to work in a user-centred way. There is talk of use
