Kirkeby Group Our researchThe human brain is a highly complex structure, consisting of hundreds of different subtypes of neural cells; each of which fulfil a specific function in the brain network. When some of these neurons are lost – such as in neurodegenerative diseases – our brains become malfunctioning. The goal of our research is to develop stem cell-based neural cell therapies to replace lo

Hammarlund Group Our ResearchWhy animals evolved on Earth remains poorly understood. In fact, we lack understanding of both what made unicellular ancestors become multicellular and why animals and plants alone managed to become so complex (organ-grade) and diverse. Since long, the rise of animals has been associated with a presumed rise in atmospheric oxygen. Currently, no geological evidence conc

Kokaia Group Our ResearchAvailable experience, intellectual potential and manpower, technology platforms, transgenic animals, methodological and clinical “know-how”, and close interaction between clinicians and basic scientists provide added value, strongly supporting the feasibility of our work. We are transplanting different types of neuroblasts generated either from human skin cell-derived indu

Leigh Group Our ResearchInjury results in a range of regenerative responses, varying from scarring to perfect regeneration. This is highly dependent on the tissues damaged and importantly the organism in which this damage occurred. We are focused on understanding why some species are able to regenerate complex structures, such as limbs, whereas others species (e.g. humans) are limited in their reg

Nilsson Group Our ResearchThe Nilsson lab focuses on how inborn genetic variation influences blood cell formation and blood cancer risk in humans.In a first line of research, we study genetic predisposition for multiple myeloma (MM). Studies going back to the 1920s support familial aggregation of MM. Recently, we and others discovered sequence variants influencing MM risk, including common variant

Reagents The facility will stock many packaging systems available for lentiviral- and oncoretroviral vectors. These reagents can be made available to investigators provided that they have permission from the original source to use them. An effort will be made to stock the most up-to-date packaging systems to be able to provide investigators with state-of-the-art advice and reagents for their gene

Excessive growth of administrative staff is a well recognized phenomenon that spans many types of organization within both the public and private sectors. It is often considered to be a plague. Whereas some qualitative explanations are well known, few or no quantitative approaches in terms of dynamical modeling have been pursued.
