Four-stranded DNA in a new type of cancer therapy
Nasim Sabouri has discovered proteins that regulate four-stranded DNA in the cell. Her findings are already forming the basis for efforts to develop new cancer therapeutics.
Mapping brain mechanisms that shape our culture
As a Wallenberg Academy Fellow, Lindström is examining the neurobiological och psychological threads that intertwine to enable humans to learn from each other.
Understanding damage to mitochondrial DNA can pave the way for new drugs
Some mitochondrial diseases are not caused by energy shortage; they are the result of stress signals from the mitochondria. Paulina Wanrooij wants to use the opportunity as a Wallenberg Academy Fellow to study the signals sent by mitochondria in the cell.
Using chaos to stabilize organic semiconductors
Organic semiconductors are expected to be the platform for a revolution, in economic and sustainability terms. But this will require a simple manufacturing process and high stability. Swedish researchers are hoping to meet this challenge – with the help of more chaos.
