New findings reveal why some Chronic Myeloid Leukemia patients respond better to treatment
Researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have made new strides in understanding why some patients with chronic myeloid leukemia respond better to treatment than others. Their study, recently published in eLife, suggests that the amount of healthy blood stem cells at diagnosis could be a key factor in predicting how well patients will respond to standard therapies. Chronic myeloid leu

A nose for noses
Giving up research has never been an option for Ronald Kröger, professor in biology with a specialisation in fish lenses and dog noses. “I conduct research with all of my heart!” He is, however, at least as dependent on his brain – and it has really suffered. It is nearly five years since the Saturday morning when Ronald Kröger woke up and thought he was getting a cold or flu. It did not stop him

AI, crisis and quantum – Lund University in Almedalen
Lund University is returning to Almedalen with a broad programme to strengthen the public discussion about higher education and research. Since the university's first participation in 2009, the commitment has grown, and this year around 50 employees are participating. The programme offers discussions on everything from preparedness and AI to the future of food. ”Universities play an important role

Inexpensive spectrometer triggers chemistry students’ curiosity
A team of NanoLund researchers sought ways to make students understand what is actually happening inside the “magic black box” of a commercial spectrophotometer. “This set promotes discovery in a natural and self-motivating way. By changing samples in the spectrometer, we can explore a variety of materials and their properties,” says NanoLundian Jens Uhlig, one of the researchers behind the work.

New study shows that Lake Mien was formed by a meteoric impact
Volcano or meteorite? Over the past 100 years, two different theories have been put forward to explain the formation of Lake Mien. However, researchers from Lund University can now definitively state in a new study that the lake in Småland was formed by a gigantic celestial object. It was long thought that the circular Lake Mien in southern Småland was the remains of a volcano. However, in 1910 th

Microscopic foraminifera – likely winners in tomorrow’s increasingly deoxygenated oceans
They are called foraminifera and have lived in the world’s oceans for 545 million years. A research team has established in a new study that some species of this protist will probably cope swimmingly even in a climate-impacted future. This is due to their ability to respire nitrate. One consequence of climate change is higher water temperatures and reduced oxygen levels in the world’s oceans. This

Bacteria could become a future source of electricity
In recent years, researchers have tried to capture the electrical current that bacteria generate through their own metabolism. So far, however, the transfer of the current from the bacteria to a receiving electrode has not been efficient at all. Now, researchers from institutions including Lund University have achieved a slightly more efficient transfer of electrical current. One of society’s grea

Arctic wildlife uses extreme method to save energy
PhD Student Carlos Velez explores the role of Indigenous Traditional Knowledge in relation to wildlife consumption
What do you explore in your PhD-project? I explore the role that Indigenous Traditional Knowledge (ITK) plays in the regulation of Wildlife consumption in the Colombian Amazon. This is quite interesting, and a key topic as there are around 65 indigenous ethnic groups living in the Colombian Amazon forest. Working, and learning with them, about sustainable use of this ecosystem, is without a doubt
Open letter to Chancellor Torbjörn von Schantz regarding the unequal representation on the LU Business council
Last week, a new council for business (Näringslivsråd) was announced by Lund University, the main focus of which is to “be a natural forum for cooperation, where questions such as regional development, research, education, innovation and infrastructure are to be discussed”. The proposed council consists of 18 men and 3 women, a line-up that has been the subject of extensive internal as well as ext
The mobile that will save children’s lives in Malawi
Infant mortality in Malawi is among the highest in the world. In a new EU-funded project, researchers from Lund, Cork and Oxford will develop new mobile technology to help health care staff in the country diagnose and treat serious diseases earlier and more effectively. In rural Malawi, aid organisations’ health care staff use a disease manual called IMCI, developed by the World Health Organisatio
