A research group from Lund Stem Cell Center aims to understand a specific type of neuron that could underlie several brain disorders including schizophrenia, epilepsy and autism, and are developing exciting new strategies to treat them. For the brain to function properly, signaling – be it excitatory or inhibitory – must be properly balanced. This is where a nerve cell known as interneurons come i

The fight against COVID-19 continues. In Lund, researchers have been awarded a large Vinnova grant to identify a compound that could be used to prevent viral infection, and thus save lives. The project is a co-operation between preclinical, clinical researchers and a company, an efficient way for creating synergies in research. Project Manager for the study is researcher Sinem Tas, Fellow in Darcy

We are very happy to announce that Emma Hammarlund and the Evolution of Stemness Control and Multicellularity research group have joined Lund Stem Cell Center! Emma and her team aim to understand how the rise of animals on Earth relates to the evolution of stemness control, an event we know very little about. Why animals evolved on the Earth remains poorly understood. As does what drove unicellula

Researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center highlight the importance of controlling viral elements that reside in the genome and how their activation during development may contribute to brain disorders later in life. Around 10% of the human genome is composed of DNA sequences originating from viruses that infected our ancestors throughout the millions of years of our evolution. Under normal conditions

In recent years, therapeutic antibodies have transformed the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases. Now, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new, efficient method based on the genetic scissors CRISPR-Cas9, that facilitates antibody development. The discovery is published in Nature Communications. Antibody drugs are the fastest growing class of drug, and several therapeu
