New research project examines immobility as an adaptation strategy

By noomi [dot] egan [at] fsi [dot] lu [dot] se (Noomi Egan) - published 26 June 2023 Falsterbo, outside Malmö, is one of the places the researchers will focus on as part of the ITACHA project, which examines immobility as an adaptation strategy. A new research project led by LUCSUS will examine immobility as an adaptation strategy. Through a novel research approach, and field work in different are

How do dementia diseases affect our brains?

By Pia [dot] romare [at] fsi [dot] lu [dot] se (Pia Romare) - published 23 August 2018 “We must understand the ageing process itself in order to help people with conditions such as Alzheimer’s and dementia, and to possibly enable us to prevent these diseases from arising”, says Henrik Ahlenius of the Stem Cell Centre at Lund University. His aim is to develop an experimental model for human nerve c

Making an aircraft wing from a feather

By Pia [dot] romare [at] fsi [dot] lu [dot] se (Pia Romare) - published 23 February 2018 The CT-scanned feather details (left) need to be converted to a complete 3D model of the feather (right) in order to develop numerical tools to realise a geometric model of the feather. This model in turn will be the basis for the development of a highly Birds are masters of flight and can even outperform airc

Improving conditions for autonomous ships

Published 10 February 2021 Operator remotely controls a real boat, and is in a virtual world above a virtual boat. The virtual world gets a 360°-image from the real boat. In the image, the operator takes a bearing against a landmark, thereby improving the accuracy of the positi Just like self-driving cars, we can expect autonomous ships to become more common in the coming years. However, two safet

How cells are able to turn

Published 22 January 2018 Researchers have long wondered how our cells navigate inside the body. Two new studies, in which Lund University researcher Pontus Nordenfelt has participated, have now demonstrated that the cells use molecular force from within to steer themselves in a certain direction. This knowledge may be of great significance in the development of new drugs. Pontus Nordenfelt, resea

Mechanism vital to keeping blood stem cells functional uncovered

Published 6 April 2018 High-resolution electron microscopy images illustrate significant differences in cell size between a normal (left) and PUS7-deficient (PUS7-KO, right) human embryonic stem cell. Hematopoietic stem cells, that form mature blood cells, require a very precise amount of protein to function – and defective regulation of protein production is common in certain types of aggressive

Prostate cancer questions could be answered through Big Data project

Published 11 June 2018 Data from more than 400 000 patients in different countries will be used to increase knowledge and improve treatment of prostate cancer. This is all taking place within the international big data for better outcome (BD4BO) project PIONEER, in which Lund University has a prominent role. Despite intensive research, there are many unanswered questions concerning prostate cancer

Nuclear weapons tests provide information on dangerous atherosclerosis plaque

Published 8 April 2010 At the time of the atmospheric nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s, the level of carbon-14 in the atmosphere increased dramatically. Now researchers from Lund University have developed a method for measuring the carbon-14 content in atherosclerotic plaques in patients. The measurements reveal how old and dangerous the plaques really are. "On the one hand it’s impo
