De 100 är i Sverige för återhämtning i det så kallade Repower-programmet under en vecka. Dagen i Forum Medicum inleddes med en tyst minut. Ett liknande besök hölls även förra året, då den ukrainska vårdpersonalen träffade personal vid SUS och fick berätta om sina upplevelser. Veckan hålls i SUS regi. Måndag är enda dagen som hålls i Forum Medicum.

Exercising too much and not getting enough rest is bad for your health. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the same is true for migratory birds. They need to rest not only to renew their energy levels but also in order to boost their immune system. After a period of physical exertion, vertebrates, including humans, usually need a period of recovery. Apart from the obvious – lowe

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have discovered higher levels of immune proteins in the blood before and after an epileptic seizure. The possible biomarkers can be identified using a simple blood test. Diagnosing epilepsy is currently resource intensive, and distinguishing it from other conditions can be challenging. Better diagnostic methods as soon as the patient seeks medical care af

Does green growth exist? Can we achieve a sustainable society with a GDP that grows year after year? Not if you ask Timothée Parrique. He is the economist who defied all the good advice and chose to research degrowth. Now his thesis has been downloaded 27,000 times, and he is a sought-after lecturer worldwide. At the end of February this year, renowned economist Paul Krugman wrote a column in the

Three researchers at Lund University in Sweden, all with a long list of significant research credentials, have been awarded the ERC Advanced Grant worth EUR 2.5 million each to further develop and advance their research projects. This concerns research on a fundamentally changed food system, chaperone proteins’ function in neurodegenerative diseases, and blood tests for rapid screening of drugs in

Despite sweet lupin, buck wheat and amaranth being nutritious and climate-smart crops, we eat them only rarely. Engineering students studying food technology at Lund University in Sweden have recently developed completely new experimental products in which those crops play a key role – and perhaps provide a clue to the range on offer in the food shops of the future. Each year a group of students o

Dense urban areas amplify the effects of higher temperatures, due to the phenomenon of heat islands in cities. This makes cities more vulnerable to extreme climate events. Large investments in the electricity network will be necessary to cool us down during heatwaves and keep us warm during cold snaps, according to a new study led by Lund University in Sweden. “Unless we account for extreme climat

A species of ordinary gut bacteria that we all carry flourishes when the intestinal flora is knocked out by a course of antibiotics. Since the bacteria is naturally resistant to many antibiotics, it causes problems, particularly in healthcare settings. A study led from Lund University in Sweden now shows how two molecular mechanisms can work together make the bacterium extra resistant. “Using this

Seeds and fat balls do more than just fill small birds’ stomachs. New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that feeding during the wintertime causes birds to be healthier, since they do not have to expend as much energy fighting infections. A small change in body temperature can be fatal for humans. Small birds, meanwhile, lower their body temperature at night by several degrees during th

Is it possible to improve the antibodies that the body produces to fight SARS-CoV2? In a study led by researchers from Lund University in Sweden, this was investigated by redesigning antibodies and combining them against the virus. The modified antibodies have been tested in human cells and with mice. Many antibodies used to treat covid infection during the pandemic have been so-called neutralizin

Implementing nature-based solutions requires better management and funding with clear political priorities. This is the conclusion of a new study by the Nordic Council of Ministers, in which researchers from Lund University participated. Nature-based solutions to climate change and the loss of biodiversity are increasingly highlighted, most recently during the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27)

Swapping concrete and asphalt for trees, ponds and green roofs is an example of how cities can be adapted to cope with heavy rain and climate change. But time is running out. For nature-based solutions to have a global impact, we need to act fast, according to researchers. A late summer’s day in August 2014, 100 mm of rain fell over the course of a 24-hour period in the Sofielund area in Malmö. Ba
