Accumulation of the substance amyloid beta in the brain impairs the memory and cognitive ability in people with Alzheimer’s. New findings from Lund University in Sweden show that the cause of amyloid beta pathology might be more versatile than previously known. Researchers believe that these new findings may be of significance to the development of new medications. The accumulation of the protein

An article published in Nature by researchers at Lund University shows how different arrangements of atoms can be combined into nanowires as they grow. Researchers learning to control the properties of materials this way can lead the way to more efficient electronic devices. Nanowires are believed to be important elements in several different areas, such as in future generations of transistors, en

An important element in getting blood stem cells to multiply outside the body is to understand which of the approximately 20 000 genes in the human body control their growth. A research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied close to 15 000 of these genes alongside each other. The researchers have succeeded in identifying four key genes which, together, govern the growth and multiplication

Approximately one in five Swedish young adults (18–25) have experienced recurring problems with paying their bills in the past year. The group with recurring payment problems tend to make more unplanned purchases, are less likely to have a social network to discuss their financial problems with, and are less likely to have friends that could help them financially, than those who do not experience

Premature babies have a hard time getting the oxygen they need as their lungs are not sufficiently developed. Today you can only use X-rays to see how much air babies’ lungs contain, but, according to research from Lund University in Sweden, in the future, these types of tests could be done using laser light. “Multiple X-ray examinations involve a certain increase in the risk of developing cancer,
