Forskare vid Lunds universitet har utvecklat en teknik för att mäta elektriska signaler från 128 hjärnområden samtidigt hos vakna råttor. Den har de sedan använt för att mäta vad som händer med nervcellerna när råttorna får psykedeliska droger. Resultaten visar på en oväntad och samtidig synkronisering bland nervcellerna i flera områden i hjärnan. Idén om att elektriska svängningar, oscillationer,

In a study led by Lund University and the Amsterdam University Medical Center, researchers used PET to analyse aggregates of tau pathology in more than 12,000 people from all over the world. The study – the largest ever of its kind – examines the connection between genetic predisposition, gender and age in relation to tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The study is published in Nature Neuroscie

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed an algorithm that combines data from a simple blood test and brief memory tests, to predict with great accuracy who will develop Alzheimer's disease in the future. The findings are published in Nature Medicine. Approximately 20-30% of patients with Alzheimer's disease are wrongly diagnosed within specialist healthcare, and diagnostic work-up

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the “recipe” for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have now created a library of the 400 factors needed for reprogramming and have begun the work of finding the right combination – the recipe – for each type of immune cell.
