The Swedish energy agency has warned of an energy deficit and the posibility of rolling blackouts that might follow if we don't flatten the curve of energy consumption. The main reason for the shortage is due to repairs on some of our nuclear power facilites. The Swedish government and Lund University asks us to help save energy in these times, to prevent rolling blackouts. Electricity shortage Th

Significant inflation in Sweden means a raised Customer Price Index. This in turn raises our rents to the different property owners of our housing areas. This means that in most of our student housing areas, we will have to raise the rent. Not all areas are affected, however. Due to significant inflation in Sweden, we will have to increase the rent at most of our student housing areas by 8%. As y

A new regulation from the government that takes effect on 1 January 2023 decides how universities are allowed to supply housing to its students. This means some groups we have previously housed, are no longer eligible to get housing with us in the new year. Note however that current contracts and contracts already offered before 1 January 2023 are still valid and go by the higher precedent of "pos

Here's what you should know and what investors look for. Most startup companies need investment at some point in their journey, but a lot of companies struggle to find it. Investors come in many shapes and at different times of the journey, from perhaps early investors like family and friends to business angels and later-stage venture capital. It is not one-size-fits-all, so make sure to consider

Ideation is a creative process for generating ideas, lots of ideas. It can help you to think outside-the-box, and is an essential part of the design process. First of all, you need to come up with a problem or challenge that you want to solve. Look around - what problems do you or people in your surroundings encounter? When you've located this and narrowed the problem down, you need some technique

The incretin hormones GLP-1 and GIP act like the yin and yang on the body´s blood vessels. While GLP-1 has been associated with protective effects according to new research GIP can contribute to an increased risk of stroke. The findings are published in the scientific journal Diabetes.

Do you eat a lot of chicken, pasta, cheese, dressing and oils? Or are you one of those who consume a lot of yogurt with cereal, but stay away from coffee and meat? Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have studied different food patterns and found that some consumption patterns are healthier than others. The result may perhaps not seem particularly sensational. It seems that what we usually re

The islets of Langerhans in the pancreas contain not only insulin-producing cells, but also four other hormone-producing cell types. Using a new method, researchers are to study their interaction by mapping previously unknown genetic networks. “It will give us new possibilities to direct medicines at new targets”, says associate professor Nils Wierup who will present the first part of the study at

The complement proteins that circulate in our blood are an important part of our immune system. They help identify bacteria, viruses and other harmful organisms, making it easier for our white blood cells to find and neutralise dangerous microbes. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now discovered a previously unknown function of the central complement protein, C3, which describes how C3

The TEDDY Study has increased our knowledge about what happens prior to the onset of autoimmune diabetes (type 1 diabetes) and has shown that a stomach infection can trigger coeliac disease.

Can insulin absorbed in small doses through food in early childhood get the immune system accustomed to insulin and thereby delay – or prevent – type 1 diabetes? Researchers hope to find the answer through POInT, a study starting in Skåne this autumn. Newborn babies in Skåne with a high risk of autoimmune diabetes (type 1 diabetes) can take part in the study. The infants from Skåne, together with

By blocking a protein, VDAC1, in the insulin-producing beta cells, it is possible to restore their normal function in case of type 2 diabetes. In preclinical experiments, the researchers behind a new study have also shown that it is possible to prevent the development of the disease. The findings are published in the scientific journal Cell Metabolism. The researchers at Lund University in Sweden
