A new blood test demonstrated remarkable promise in discriminating between persons with and without Alzheimer’s disease and in persons at known genetic risk may be able to detect the disease as early as 20 years before the onset of cognitive impairment, according to a large international study published today in the J

AI-chatten kan svara på frågor, översätta, skriva kod, eller författa en spännande novell. Möjligheterna fascinerar och kanske oroar en del, men vad är ChatGPT? – I mina ögon fyller chat-botten främst två funktioner; som coach och som produktivitetsverktyg, säger Björn Svensson, studierektor och universitetsadjunkt i informatik på Ekonomihögskolan. Björn Svensson ingår i en arbetsgrupp som univers

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Pimaindianerna i USA har världsrekord i diabetes. 38 procent har sjukdomen. Det är fem gånger mer än bland det genetiskt lika sårbara broderfolket i Mexiko. Pimafolkets situation i USA är ett åskådligt men tragiskt exempel på konsekvenserna av en kraftfull kollision mellan arv och miljö. Pimaindianerna kom från norr

Innovation och framgångsrika lärosäten går hand i hand. På rak arm är det svårt att komma på något välrenommerat universitet som inte är duktig på innovationsfrågor. Vid Lunds universitet har vi under lång tid arbetat med innovationsfrågor på många olika sätt, inte minst vad gäller forskningsresultat som i sin tur resulterat i företag i form av start-ups. Många av dessa företag har även kunnat ta

För tio år sedan verkade det som en sanning. Då lanserade läkemedelsbolaget Pfizer "Exubera", ett insulin som skulle inhaleras. Men sagan blev kort, bara ett år efter lanseringen 2006 drog Pfizer till många

Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center 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 leu

Two issues that have taken up a relatively large part of my time since I became pro vice-chancellor five years ago are the management of research data and IT security. Both were areas in which LU did not really live up to the expectations of a top 100 university. There are, naturally, many points of contact between the areas, and both require a larger element of university-wide solutions than what

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have taken an important step on the road to understanding the underlying mechanism of how and why animals can feel pain in connection with cold or heat. However, according to the study, temperature is just one triggering factor – horseradish, mustard, cinnamon and wasabi have a

Great tits in urban environments have lower levels of stress hormone than those living in woodland habitats. This according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Certain animals are able to adjust well to environments that have been created or altered by human activity. We live in an age in which urbanisation is proceeding at an ever-faster rate, something that also affects fauna. The gre

During the unusually dry year of 2018, Sweden was hit by numerous forest fires. A research team led from Lund University in Sweden has investigated how climate change affects recently burnt boreal forests and their ability to absorb carbon dioxide. The boreal forests form a single biome that spans the entire Northern Hemisphere. These forests play a key role in the global climate system by absorbi

Research at Lund University in Sweden has found a new way to create nano-sized magnetic particles using ultrafast laser light pulses. The discovery could pave the way for new and more energy-efficient technical components and become useful in the quantum computers of the future. Magnetic skyrmions are sometimes described as magnetic vortices. Unlike ferromagnetic states – which occur in convention

By analyzing DNA with the help of artificial intelligence (AI), an international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has developed a method that can accurately date up to ten-thousand year-old human remains. Accurately dating ancient humans is key when mapping how people migrated during world history. The standard dating method since the 1950s has been radiocarbon dating. The method, wh

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Over the past 50 years, the water in lakes and watercourses has turned increasingly brown. The so-called browning has a negative impact on both drinking water production and ecosystems. If nothing is done, the water is likely to turn even browner – however, there is hope. Supported by a new study, researchers from Lun

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Extremely acute vision and the ability to rapidly process different visual impressions – these two factors are crucial when a peregrine falcon bears down on its prey at a speed that easily matches that of a Formula 1 racing car: over 350 kilometres per hour. The visual acuity of birds of prey has been studied extensiv

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Biologists at Lund University in Sweden have in a recent study shown that the great tit, a common European songbird, has a tremendous capacity for self-control. Up to now, such impulse control has been primarily associated with larger cognitively advanced animals with far larger brains than the great tit. According to
