De nya blodproven för att diagnostisera Alzheimers sjukdom ger allt bättre möjligheter till tidig diagnos, men en utmaning är att markörerna som mäts förändras långt innan symtom utvecklas. Forskning ledd från Lunds universitet visar nu att en tidigare inte använd blodmarkör kan, när den kombineras med dagens blodmarkörer, betydligt minska risken för att personer får missvisande besked om sjukdom.

Five years after the opening of the prestigious Wallenberg Centre for Molecular Medicine, nothing has turned out as planned. The “tandem pairs” that were supposed to develop research together are now cheating on each other with other researchers. Private and work life have become intertwined and families often barbecue together. It’s a cold Sunday afternoon and the ground is covered in a thin laye

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden collected wild flatworms from Malmö’s largest park, Pildammsparken. These creatures are masters at regenerating after injury. Now, for the first time, the worms’ unique ability to regenerate has been harnessed to help accelerate wound healing in human skin models. A research team at Lund University was recently contacted by researchers at a Korean skincar
