Is all the material you have in the freezer actively used in your research? If not, it should be classified as biobank material and instead stored in Region Skåne's Biobank. On 9 April, a digital seminar will be held (in Swedish) on freezer storage options and news in the new Biobank Act. There is a shortage of freezers and space for new freezers in the faculty's premises. Roger Lindskog is an exp

Dear students and colleagues, Lund University is a place for objectivity, open conversation and the gratifying quest for knowledge. We are an organisation with a unique task – to produce, discuss and communicate knowledge. We are an organisation of, and for, experts. I myself am an expert on insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. To be frank, that is pretty niche and nerdy. Yet here, at Lun

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

Our blood stem cells generate around a thousand billion new blood cells every day. But the blood stem cells’ capacity to produce blood changes as we age. This leads to older people being more susceptible to anaemia, lowered immunity and a greater risk of developing certain kinds of blood cancer. Now for the first time, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has succeeded in rejuvenating bloo
