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

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have made two new discoveries with regard to the beta cells’ ability to release insulin. The findings can also provide a possible explanation as to why smokers have an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. The study was conducted on mice and donated beta cells from humans, and is now published in the scientific journal Cell Reports.The researchers have discove

And does your cat understand what you are saying? The new research project “Melody in human-cat communication” at Lund University in Sweden may find the answer. “We want to find out to what extent domestic cats are influenced by the language and dialect that humans use to speak to them, because it seems that cats use slightly different dialects in the sounds they produce”, says Associate Professor

A new analytical model for e-sports developed by researchers in Sweden, Denmark and Germany, not only helps game developers better understand how players perform, but can also predict the outcome of the game. E-sports is the term used for the increasingly popular phenomenon of competitive computer and video gaming, where individuals or teams play against each other in various online environments.

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

Uganda has one of the harshest standpoints on homosexuality in the world. Homosexual acts are prohibited by law and have previously been suggested to warrant the death penalty. However, a study from Lund University in Sweden shows that homosexuality among young people is as common in Uganda as in other countries. The results are based on a survey with nearly 3,000 participating students in south-w

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
