Superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity without resistance and are used in electromagnets, antennas and power lines. Researchers have now studied a multifaceted superconductor that exhibits a so-called vortex lattice when exposed to a magnetic field. The discovery could revolutionise technological development. Smart superconductors are predicted to change our everyday lives fund

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Kan insulin som intas i små doser via maten redan under småbarnsåren vänja immunsystemet vid insulin och därmed fördröja - eller förhindra - typ 1-diabetes? 
I POInT, en studie som startar i Skåne i höst, hoppas forskarna finna svaret. Nyfödda barn i Skåne med hög risk att drabbas av autoimmun diabetes (typ 1-diabet
