A new international commission will pave the way for a global boost in maternal and newborn health. The project is led by a researcher at Lund University in Sweden, whose motivation stems from a formative experience witnessing a woman bleed to death unnecessarily during childbirth. “The time has come to put maternal and newborn health back at the heart of the global health agenda,” says Mehreen Za

Vad hände med generationen som upplevde Jasminrevolutionen i Tunisien som unga? Hur skiljer sig deras uppfattningar från de som bara var små barn, och inte kommer ihåg förhoppningarna om ökad frihet och ett bättre liv? Studier i fokusgrupper, där både generation Z och milleniegenerationen Y finns representerade, ger oväntade svar, men visar ändå på en viss optimism om ytterligare demokratisering.

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har lyckats tillverka storskaliga och sfärformade LED-ytor vilket tidigare har varit en teknisk utmaning. Experimentet, som möjliggjordes av en enkel kemisk reaktion, kan bli avgörande för en betydligt billigare produktion av lysdioder. Perovskit är ett medelhårt mineral som upptäcktes i Uralbergen 1839 och tillhör kalciumtitanoxidfamiljen. Vad den tyske mineralogen

Med hjälp av röntgen- och neutronspridning har ett forskarlag i Lund lyckats kartlägga fibrillstrukturen hos proteinet beta-amyloid 42 som bidrar till Alzheimers sjukdom. Den nya kunskapen kan bli en viktig pusselbit i den framtida jakten på effektiva läkemedel. Vid Alzheimers sjukdom förtvinar nervcellerna i hjärnan vilket leder till minnesproblem och svårigheter att tolka intryck. Till en början

The Islamic presence in Europe is becoming normalised. But integration also leads to increased conflict, according to Oliver Scharbrodt, Lund University’s new Professor of Islamic Studies. Oliver Scharbrodt came to the University last spring after taking up Sweden’s only professorship in Islamic Studies. “I was attracted by the fact that Lund is one of Europe’s classic top universities and that th

Successful mainstreaming means that climate adaptation will be considered by ‘default’, because it is built into the system, says Christine Wamsler, Professor at LUCSUS, and au

For decades, large stretches of human DNA were dismissed as ‘junk’ and considered to serve no real purpose. In a new study in Cell Genomics, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show that the repetitive part of the human genome plays an active role during early brain development and may also be relevant for understanding brain diseases.

Work is now in progress on procuring a landlord who wants to be part of the development of Nanolab Science Village. This means another milestone for Lund University’s establishment at the emerging Science Village – where the production of nanomaterials and semiconductor components will take place next door to the major research facilities ESS and MAX IV.

Altruism – to give unselfishly so that society will function by sharing your blood is a linchpin of healthcare. At least that is the case in Sweden.

A species of ordinary gut bacteria that we all carry flourishes when the intestinal flora is knocked out by a course of antibiotics. Since the bacteria is naturally resistant to many antibiotics, it causes problems, particularly in healthcare settings. A study led from Lund University in Sweden now shows how two molecular mechanisms can work together make the bacterium extra resistant. “Using this

One result of climate change is that spring is arriving earlier. However, migratory birds are not keeping up with these developments and arrive too late for the peak in food availability when it is time for breeding. By getting the birds to fly a little further north, researchers in Lund, Sweden, and the Netherlands have observed that these birds can give their chicks a better start in life. Globa
