A consortium led by Paul Bourgine has been awarded EIC Transition grant with 2,5 million Euro over three years. This covers activities that are typically hard to finance - researchers refer to the famous « valley of death » illustrating the difficulty of translating promising basic research into human clinical practice.

Med hjälp av röntgen- och neutronspridning har ett forskarlag i Lund lyckats kartlägga fibrillstrukturen hos proteinet beta-amyloid 42 som bidrar till Alzheimers sjukdom. Den nya kunskapen kan bli en viktig pusselbit i den framtida jakten på effektiva läkemedel. Vid Alzheimers sjukdom förtvinar nervcellerna i hjärnan vilket leder till minnesproblem och svårigheter att tolka intryck. Till en början

Birds fly more efficiently by folding their wings during the upstroke, according to a recent study led by Lund University in Sweden. The results could mean that wing-folding is the next step in increasing the propulsive and aerodynamic efficiency of flapping drones. Even the precursors to birds – extinct bird-like dinosaurs – benefited from folding their wings during the upstroke, as they develope

The areas of research remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumer researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe developments in retail research over the past ten years. "In one of our latest reports, we call it “Retail as unusual”. There is no longer a ‘normal’ state in retail, no ‘business as usual’. Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan

In March this year, LINXS received a new organisational placement within the Faculty of Science. Rather than being part of the Department of Chemistry, LINXS is now established as a separate unit reporting directly to the Dean. The decision follows a strategic review and an external evaluation of the organisation conducted last year, both of which yielded very positive results.Established in 2017,
