Trots banbrytande forskning når många cell- och genterapier inte hela vägen till patienterna. Forskare och kliniker i Lund presenterar nu en ny samarbetsmodell som ska korta ledtider och minska kostnader – med målet att ge fler tillgång till avancerade, potentiellt botande behandlingar. Detta är en gemensam nyhet från Lunds universitet och Skånes universitetssjukhus.I korthet:Varför lovande cell-

The income and education levels of a child’s environment determine their relationship to nature, not whether they live in a city or the countryside. This is the finding of a new study conducted by researchers at Lund University, Sweden. The results run counter to the assumption that growing up in the countryside automatically increases our connection to nature, and yet the study also shows that na

All particles that reach the atmosphere cause different chemical reactions. Particles come partly from natural sources such as volcanic eruptions and forest fires, and partly from pollution and emissions. Aerosol researcher Johan Friberg studies particles at high altitudes. He fears that the global increase in forest fires could have a significant impact on the ozone layer. “I study the air in the
