I nästa vecka håller FN ett toppmöte om Agenda 2030. Tidigare studier har visat att arbetet mot agendans 17 hållbarhetsmål går dåligt. Därför föreslår en grupp forskare fyra reformer för att vända utvecklingen. Reformerna publiceras i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Science. År 2015 antog FN:s medlemsstater Agenda 2030 med 17 mål för en hållbar global utveckling. Målen ska uppnåtts, eller vara på go

Researchers at Lund University are developing a new type of gene therapy that reprograms cancer cells within tumors into immune cells that can help the immune system fight cancer. Their approach, now published in the journal Science, could lead to more effective treatments for hard-to-treat cancers. Cancer is known for its ability to hide from the immune system, making it tough to fight. But what

This Regional Outlook focuses on the obstacles of delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza and the challenges of rebuilding and reconstructing the area after the war. In 2007, the blockade imposed by Israel and Egypt in Gaza transformed the Strip into an area entirely dependent on humanitarian aid and external support, with the movement of people and goods under Israeli and Egyptian control. The 7 Octo

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

A blood biomarker yet to be used in cardiac arrest care can give a clearer picture of the extent of brain damage after a cardiac arrest. This has been shown in a large international multicentre study led by researchers at Lund University that has been published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine. Worldwide, around four million people each year suffer a sudden cardiac arrest. “This will transform c
