Ungefär en av tjugo personer drabbas av långdragna covid-19-symtom, men vilka är de? Uppdaterad version 2021-04-15 Den 29 april anordnas ett webinar om långdragna symtom vid covid-19. Läs mer om detta här. Tillsammans med våra kollegor på King’s College London och Massachusetts General Hospital i Boston har vi studerat personer med långdragna covid-19 symtom. I en studie som analyserat data från d

Den som rapporterar regelbundet i appen kommer i dag att upptäcka att de frågor som ställs vid eventuell sjukdomskänsla har uppdaterats. Förändringarna gäller deltagarna i samtliga tre länder där appen används i forskningssyfte (Storbritannien, Sverige och USA). Uppdateringen sker dels för att det ska bli enklare för studiedeltagare som har sjukdomssymtom att navigera i appen, dels för att forskar

Nu ökar antalet bekräftade covid-19 fall och sjukhusinläggningar i Sverige snabbt. Under sommaren var det relativt få deltagare som rapporterade symtom men vi ser nu en klar uppgång även i våra data. Andelen deltagare med symtom som överensstämmer med covid-19 ligger nu på en nivå som motsvarar månadsskiftet maj/juni. En fördel med vår appdata är att den är jämförbar över regioner och att den kan

Den 4 november uppdaterades appen med nya symtom som vi redan skrivit om här. En av de frågor som uppdaterades var den viktiga frågan kring lukt och smak. Den här frågan är mycket central i vår modell då den representerar det symtom som skiljer sig mest åt mellan personer som har ett positivt PCR-test för covid-19 och personer som inte har det. Frågan har gjorts mer specifik och delats upp i två f

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have launched a free app to help map the spread of infection in Sweden and increase knowledge of the coronavirus. “Data from the app will give us a clearer picture of the development of the disease and why some people only experience mild symptoms while others get seriously ill and die”, says Paul Franks, professor of genetic epidemiology. It takes approxim

Although Lund University’s 350th anniversary celebrations are drawing to a close, some projects will live on, along with the working method known as the jubilee model. Carina Jensen, soon to step down from her role as jubilee coordinator, talks about Sunday’s big kick-off for the future, which is open to all. “It will start with an open house event in the main University building, celebrating the

Large science publisher Elsevier does not meet the requirements of Swedish universities and research institutes. The agreement will be cancelled 30th of June. This means that employees and students at Lund University will not have access to journal articles published by Elsevier after June 30, 2018. However, one can still read Elsevier articles published between 1995 and 30 June 2018. LU researche

The expression “Sweden’s green gold” has a new meaning. Forests are now not only to provide timber and paper – but also save the climate. Chemical engineering researcher Christian Hulteberg has managed to transform a residual product from pulp manufacturing into a liquid that is chemically identical to petrol. The plan is to have Swedish forest fuel available at service stations by 2021. “This is

Ninety thousand people die in Sweden every year. Despite 80 percent of Sweden’s population stating they would like to donate their organs after death, fewer than 200 people actually become organ donors each year. Why? This is due to, among other reasons, our limited legislation and organs not being made available because of a shortage of intensive care beds. Simply dying is not enough to become an

“Superbosses” are exceptional at attracting talented people and getting them to perform at their best – while also developing them to become new, good leaders. Are superbosses to be found at the University? “I’m convinced that we would also find superbosses at Lund University if we looked”, says Christine Blomquist, who adds that there are many good leaders here.

Long ago, Carl Borrebaeck worked side by side with one of this year’s Nobel Prize winners for chemistry, Sir Gregory Winter, on the publication of an innovative technology within what was then a hot new research field: antibody engineering. In 1989, within the same couple of weeks, both researchers published findings on the technology which has now resulted in a Nobel Prize for chemistry. Since th

Broke and depressed – that’s how doctoral students risk ending up if they don’t complete their studies in time. The Doctoral Student Ombudsman, Aleksandra Popvic, says supervisors and the University must take more responsibility for the structure of the thesis work, a view supported by a survey conducted by the Swedish Union of Civil Servants (ST).

Migration is a talking point everywhere – in politics, in the media, and not least in academia. It is often presented as problematic and demanding on resources, seldom as something which contributes to economic, cultural, and indeed intellectual development. But without migrants where would academia be exactly? That’s the question being asked by Mine Islar who has been a driving force behind the P
