Under slutet av maj och början av juni arrangerar Pufendorf-Teman sina slutevenemang. Här presenterar de det interdisciplinära arbete som forskargrupperna har ägnat sig åt vid Pufendorfinstitutet under det senaste läsåret. Evenemangen har olika format och målgrupper – vissa är öppna för alla, medan andra riktar sig till särskilt inbjudna gäster, beroende på innehåll och syfte. Neurofutures: Promis

De senaste åren har de digitala vårdalternativen för patienter med knä- och höftartros ökat kraftigt – inte minst på grund av pandemin. Men hittills har det inte gjorts några studier som har jämfört effekten av de digitala vårdinsatserna med de traditionellt fysiska. I en studie som publiceras i tidskriften JAMA Network Open, har forskare jämfört de två artrosskolorna. Cirka var fjärde person över

Att rekrytera artrospatienter med mycket smärta till kliniska studier, kan ge felaktigt resultat om forskaren inte tar hänsyn till den naturliga smärtvariationen som förekommer. En forskargrupp från Lunds universitet uppmärksammar nu fallgroparna i forskningsstudier kring artros och publicerar sina rön som en kommentar i The Lancet Rheumatology. Artros är en livslång ledsjukdom som blir allt vanli

Forskaren och läkaren Hannes Holm Isholth tilldelas Bundy Academys lilla pris i kardiologi på 500 000 kronor för sin forskning om kopplingen mellan hjärtkärlsystemet och hjärnans hälsa och funktion. Hannes Holm Isholths studier är framför allt baserade på befolkningsregister, men tillsammans med  forskargruppen studerar han även hur samspelet mellan hjärta och kärl ser ut för patienter med hjärtsv

At the end of October Laura Duran Lozano successfully defended her Ph.D. thesis. Motivated by the idea of helping patients and families impacted by cancer, and as part of the EU CanFaster Program, she has spent the past four years working to identify predisposing genes for a type of bone marrow cancer known as Multiple Myeloma. In this interview, we learn how her collaborative research efforts hav

On 20 December, 2022 Kristijonas Zemaitis will defend his Ph.D. thesis. With the goal to improve the availability of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for the treatment of patients with blood disorders, he has spent the past several years working to better understand HSCs and how they are regulated to one day propagate these stem cells in the lab for therapeutic purposes. In this interview, we

Science should be able to be reproduced, but in reality, this is a step that is often overlooked. Researcher Burak Tunca at Lund University School of Economics and Management sees several possible measures that could make research better – and more open. “Researchers should always pre-register their studies and be open with their data. That way we can avoid bias and hypotheses being changed during

A surprising behaviour of atoms is giving scientists new insights into one of the most fundamental phenomena in nature: the absorption of light. A new physical phenomenon for light pulses has been discovered. The study, published in the prestigious journal Physical Review Letters, was conducted by physicists at Lund University. In the world of atoms, the laws of nature as we know them do not apply

Nature-based solutions offer excellent opportunities to address environmental and social challenges. They can help mitigate climate change and protect biodiversity. However, better governance and funding, complemented by clear political priorities, are needed to scale up such solutions in the Nordic region. This is the finding of a new research report from the Nordic Council of Ministers, in which

After screening 15 000 women over a period of five years, a major clinical study in Sweden has shown that 3D mammography, or breast tomosynthesis, detects over 30% more cancers compared to traditional mammography – with a majority of the detected tumours proving to be invasive cancers.

An international research project led from Lund University is now awarded 33 million SEK by the European Innovation Council, EIC Pathfinder. The idea behind the project is to use drugs to reprogram cancer cells into immune cells, in order to increase the body's natural anti-tumor response and fight cancer. And it is small molecules that will do the work. The research project that has received fund

Climate researchers often emphasise the fact that reducing carbon emissions is in everyone’s best interest, and should involve all of us. But how good are they at minimising their own carbon footprint? A new study carried out jointly by Lund University in Sweden and the University of Lausanne in Switzerland shows that some of them use up half their annual carbon allowance in a single week. There a
