I en ny nationell registerstudie från Lunds universitet har forskare studerat kopplingen mellan prostatacancer och infertilitet. Studien som publiceras i the British Medical Journal omfattar över en miljon svenska män. – Män som söker sjukvård för barnlöshet och assisterad befruktning visade sig ha högre risk för prostatacancer än de som har blivit pappor på naturlig väg, säger Yvonne Lundberg Giw

För en tid sedan fick jag frågan ”vad vill Lunds universitet när det gäller AI och forskning?”. Först blev jag lite förvånad och tänkte ska universitetet ha en uttryckt önskan om detta. Men sedan började jag fundera på andra ambitioner vi tydligt uttalat. Vi vill vara ”ett universitet i världsklass”, vi vill ”förstå, förklara och förbättra vår värld och människors villkor” och vi vill ”öka vårt in

This Regional Outlook focuses on the obstacles of delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza and the challenges of rebuilding and reconstructing the area after the war.

Trump’s attack on US universities and their research is actually a broader attack on democratic values, according to historian of knowledge Johan Östling. By destroying them, the Trump administration is paving the way for a very different kind of society.  “We need to understand the breadth and depth of this offensive,” says Johan Östling.Could you put Trump’s actions against universities in the U

For a researcher to be successful, he or she not only needs to produce good research – it also has to gain exposure. However, there is competition for space in scientific and popular science journals. This has led to the growth of a grey area with unprofessional journals that take payment from researchers who want their work to appear. Kristoffer Holmqvist recommends the information on the Univers

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. An extensive study has confirmed that the risk of developing coeliac disease is connected to the amount of gluten children consume. The new study is observational and therefore does not prove causation; however, it is the most comprehensive of its kind to date. The results are presented in the prestigious journal JAMA

Researchers at Lund University have identified a previously unknown precursor stage of leukemia. The discovery may help explain why an especially aggressive form of blood cancer initiates already during fetal life. When we think of cancer, we usually imagine a disease that develops over many years in adults. But for one particular group of leukemia – acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) – it is quit
