Report from a Minor Field Study

In the spring of 2015 Lisa Hindström and Aleksandra Goreczna wrote their bachelor thesis about sex education in Grenada, after receiving an MFS scholarship for field studies. This is the report from their travels. When we decided to apply for a Minor Field Studies scholarship from The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency, we were both abroad on international placements in different

Svårt hjärntrauma aktiverar vilande kroppsegna retrovirus i hjärnan

I en studie ledd från Lunds universitet kan forskarna för första gången visa att traumatiska hjärnskador aktiverar vilande endogena retrovirus som under årmiljonernas gång infogats i människans DNA. Att dessa aktiveras kan vara drivande för att starta en inflammation som förvärrar hjärnskadan. Studien är publicerad i Cell Reports. Läs artikeln här: Single-cell transcriptomics of human traumatic br

Dagens Nyheter: Nya behandlingar för sjukdomar som tidigare var omöjliga att bota

"Tack vare ny teknik har Storbritannien precis godkänt en behandling som botar två genetiska sjukdomar. Nu ligger vägen öppen för att behandla andra sorters lidande." "– Vi kommer att kunna utveckla botande behandlingar för många ovanliga sjukdomar som inte går att bota i dag, säger Johan Jakobsson."För att läsa artikeln, vänligen gå till Dagens Nyheter: https://www.dn.se/varlden/nya-behandlingar-

How Hidden Genetic Elements Trigger a Rare Neurodegenerative Disorder

Researchers from the Jakobsson Group at Lund University have discovered how a hidden piece of DNA, known as a transposable element, disrupts normal gene function in a disease called X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP). Published in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology, their findings uncover the epigenetic processes that lead to changes in gene expression linked to XDP, offering new insights i
