How lifestyle and biology shape brain changes linked to dementia

Almost half of all dementia cases may be associated with modifiable factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. At the same time, some risk factors are built into our biology, such as age, sex, and genetics. But dementia is not a single disease, rather symptom of multiple underlying disorders. Therefore, risk factor profiles for various dementia subtypes are likely to vary. A new study highli

MultiPark Innovation Grants Have Generated Inventions Since 2011

Turning scientific knowledge into solutions that improve people’s lives is the ultimate goal of research. But the path from novel scientific data to an innovation that may impact health care is long; many promising ideas never get a fair chance. For 16 years, MultiPark Innovation has supported researchers in their first efforts in transforming discoveries into inventions that may benefit patients

New blood marker reduces the risk of a false diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease

New blood tests for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease are making early diagnosis increasingly feasible. However, the fact that the markers being measured change long before any symptoms develop represents a challenge. Research led by Lund University in Sweden shows that a previously unused blood marker, when combined with those markers already in use, can significantly reduce the risk of misleading d

New AI model can detect multiple cognitive brain diseases from a single blood sample

The symptom profiles of different neurodegenerative diseases often overlap, and diagnosing age-related cognitive symptoms is complex. A patient may have multiple overlapping disease processes in the brain at the same time. Now, researchers at Lund University have developed an AI model showing that it is possible to detect several neurodegenerative diseases from a single blood sample. The study is

World Parkinson’s Day: five MultiPark projects that could improve diagnosis, understanding, and future treatments

Simpler diagnosis using a smell test, mapping brain circuits behind symptoms linked to Parkinson’s, and significant funding for advanced gene therapies. And a recently completed clinical trial with promising results for stem cell-based transplantation in Parkinson’s patients. These are five examples from the strategic research area MultiPark over the past year. MultiPark conducts multidisciplinary

A drop of blood can detect Alzheimer’s – international award

The 2026 Jeffrey L. Morby Prize has been awarded to researchers from Lund University and Washington University for a study published in Nature Medicine. The paper describes a blood test capable of detecting changes in the brain associated with Alzheimer’s disease. Oskar Hansson, Professor of Neurology, and Gemma Salvadó, Research Associate – both at Lund University – are co-authors of the article:

MultiPark grows – A new research group focusing on Neural Circuits of Emotion

This spring, MultiPark has the pleasure of welcoming a new research group leader. The Neural Circuits of Emotion team focuses on how neural circuits and neuroimmune interactions regulate emotional and cognitive functions in health and neurodegenerative diseases. Say hello to Kaizhen Li! Thanks to the inclusion of Kaizhen Li as a new research leader, MultiPark increases its collective expertise in

Millions for brain research into dementia

The risk of neurodegenerative diseases increases markedly after a traumatic brain injury – particularly following repeated concussions. Professors Niklas Marklund and Tadeusz Wieloch have now received SEK 3.4 million from The ALBORADA Trust for their research into preventing dementia after brain injury. Brain injury is a major but often underestimated public health problem that particularly affect

STEM-PD announces first in-human clinical trial results for Parkinson’s disease cell therapy

A landmark study led from Lund, Sweden, has shown that transplanting stem-cell derived dopamine progenitor cells into the brain is feasible. Eight patients were transplanted in the first clinical trial, and no serious side effects linked to the transplanted cells were seen during the first year of follow up. The results are published in Nature Medicine. In Parkinson’s disease, patients lose nerve
