Idag är Alzheimers sjukdom den vanligaste dödsorsaken för personer med Downs syndrom. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har därför, i samarbete med Alzheimer’s Biomarker Consortium – Down Syndrome i USA, undersökt biomarkörer i blodplasman hos denna grupp. Dessa markörer kan hjälpa till att förutsäga framtida förändringar i hjärnan och kognitiv nedsättning vid Alzheimers sjukdom, för personer med Dow

Med en improviserad hemmastudio, gratis mjukvara och en intensivkurs på nätet i filmredigering kunde lärare ta sitt samhällsansvar och producera digitalt undervisningsmaterial från karantän. I ett fall på avdelningen för konstruktionsteknik visade kursutvärderingen på en klar förbättring från föregående år. Ett trevligt resultat med bitter eftersmak.

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

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
