Upcoming CMES Symposium: Beyond Sacred/Secular Cities: Imagining the Nation in Urban Space

How do ideas about ’the nation’ take place locally? How are imaginaries of ’a people’ represented and challenged in urban memory and forgetting? With what effects on community formation, polarisation, and everyday urban life? Concluding the three-year CMES project Beyond Sacred/Secular Cities: Exploring the Politics of Memory, Space, and Religion, this symposium assembles scholars of multiple disc

New biobank provides insights into Parkinson’s disease

Around 20 000 Swedes are currently suffering from Parkinson’s disease, yet there are still only treatments to alleviate symptoms. Through a new biobank, researchers gain access to the genetic profiles of 1000 Parkinson’s patients together with comprehensive information about their lifestyles and medical histories. “I am convinced that many researchers will use the biobank over the next few years,

Oral insulin delayed onset of type 1 diabetes in some children with increased risk of the disease

An international team of researchers has investigated whether oral insulin can prevent early signs of type 1 diabetes and clinical diagnosis in children with an increased risk of developing the disease. Although treatment with oral insulin could not prevent development of diabetes-related autoantibodies, oral insulin delayed the rate of disease progression in children who developed such autoantibo

14 new projects funded by BECC

A major benefit of being part of BECC is the possibility for researchers to apply for project funding. Recently, 14 new projects that will contribute to delivering world leading research on biodiversity and ecosystem services under global change were granted funding. At the end of 2022, 14 new research projects were funded by BECC. Most of them are interdisciplinary and collaborations between Lund

What makes blood stem cells transform? Regulation of RNA splicing may be an answer

Researchers at Lund University Faculty of Medicine have determined a novel mechanism linking the metabolism of ribonucleic acids, RNA, to the development of leukemia in myelodysplastic syndrome patients, MDS. In a study published in the Molecular Cell journal, they explain what makes hematopoietic stem cells acquire malignant traits in cancer. RNA splicing is a major nexus of gene expression regul

Hard on the heels of a Nobel laureate

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

Welcome to our new PhD student from Ukraine

Since 24 February, nothing has been the same for Ukrainian researchers. In this urgent situation, we have been able to offer one of them a Ph.D. position. We welcome our new colleague, Nadia Kravchenko, who is eager to share her thoughts about how we may all contribute to this period to be as constructive as possible, despite the threatening circumstances. It is impossible not to be touched by the

The role of vitamin A in diabetes

There has been no known link between diabetes and vitamin A – until now. A new study suggests that the vitamin improves the insulin producing β-cell´s function. The researchers initially discovered that insulin-producing beta-cells contain a large quantity of a cell surface receptor for vitamin A.“There are no unnecessary surface receptors in human cells. They all serve a purpose but which, in man
