Carin Alegre Castegren When entering the lower gallery (KHM1) of Malmö Art Academy to see the MFA exhibition entitled “Tremeluz” by Carin Maria Alegre Castegren, I was met by numerous paintings, which all seemed to be in a state of flux. They had a lightness to them, an openness as well as something allusive. When reading the exhibition text, it was clear that Castegren had been thinking of light

Bete är en nyckelåtgärd för att bevara naturbetesmarker, några av Sveriges viktigaste livsmiljöer ur natur- och kulturvårdssynpunkt. Det är dock en utmaning att hitta rätt nivå på betet vilket leder till att många värdefulla marker betas för hårt, medan andra marker växer igen. För att diskutera utmaningar med ett högt betestryck, och öppna dörren till möjliga lösningar, bjöd LU Land in till ett f

LUND SPRING SYMPOSIUM – När Katherine A. High började arbeta med genterapi var fältet nytt, lovande – och fyllt av osäkerhet. Hennes forskning har lett till behandlingar som förändrat livet för patienter med ärftliga sjukdomar. Men vägen dit var allt annat än enkel. När Katherine A. High klev in i genterapins värld var konceptet mer teoretiskt än praktiskt. Hon minns de tidigaste försöken i fältet

Being able to predict diseases before they develop has become somewhat akin to the search for the Holy Grail. The difference is that research has a greater chance of success in finding what they are looking for than King Arthur's knights did. And in many cases, there are significant health benefits to being able to predict disease risk early: prevention is better than cure. Biomarkers are trace el
