When Jesper Wallentin returned to Lund eleven years ago, MAX IV was still under construction and the X-ray methods he wanted to use were not available in Lund. Since then, he has followed its development at close quarters – from the first, fairly rudimentary experiments to today’s considerably more mature research environment. At the same time, MAX IV has shaped his own path as a researcher. “I pr

It has been just over ten years since MAX IV was inaugurated on the longest day of the year in 2016. It is hard to believe, as it feels like only yesterday. Much has happened over the past decade, and the facility has developed into a fantastic resource for research at Lund University, as well as for researchers from across Sweden and around the world who come here to conduct experiments.It has be

As certain tumor cells are able to conceal themselves in the body, it often means that patients with aggressive cancers experience a recurrence of the cancer after treatment. By programming genetically modified killer immune cells to seek and destroy the hiding tumor cells and tumor stem cells, it is hoped that we can develop more effective treatment options. An international research project, wit

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund University have designed a new bioink which allows small human-sized airways to be 3D-bioprinted with the help of patient cells for the first time. The 3D-printed constructs are biocompatible and support new blood vessel growth into the transplanted material. This is an important first step towards
