The Conference was held in July 2022 and Dina Al Nahhas was awarded for best poster presentation.

New gene technology can reveal how well medicine works. Behind it, you will find the new company BioPhenyx

Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have started a new company which, on the basis of gene technology, shall make the development of medicine faster and more precise. According to the researchers behind the…

Fur trading in Viking Age Denmark is now proven: ‘The black furs are worn by Arab and non-Arab kings’

For the first time, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have found 'smoking gun' evidence that Denmark participated in international fur trading in the Viking Age. Fur was an international status symbol for th…

Novel insight into cell killing by anticancer agents

PP2A is a known tumor suppressor and given that its function is suppressed in many cancers, there is an interest in developing compounds that can reactivate PP2A for cancer treatment.

Your alcohol consumption could put your liver in danger – but this tool warns you

Led by University of Copenhagen, researchers now present a revolutionizing tool to predict whether an individual has alcohol-related liver disease and if the disease progresses in the individual patient.

Cancer vulnerabilities could get exposed by ‘game changing’ method

Research from University of Copenhagen shows that a new method called “Deep Visual Proteomics” may be able to help doctors get closer to an answer and expose cancer tumor’s vulnerabilities.

New proteomics method can identify mammalian species from a single chip of archaeological bone

The Olsen Group has in collaboration with Danish and international partners developed a new streamlined and high-throughput “Species by Proteome INvestigation” (SPIN) workflow for rapid species identification of…

Huge study unveils the consumption of drugs by Danes

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen and Statistics Denmark have analysed more than one billion prescriptions issued by general practitioners. In the long term, the analysis may help to optimise prescription…

This molecule is vital to our survival. Now we know what it looks like

In order to live, all mammals depend on the function of a large molecule in our nerve cells made up of four proteins.

Genetic researchers can now explain different types of migraine

The world's largest gene study on migraine describes, for the first time, the genetic differences between migraine with and without aura.

New discovery may pave the way for more targeted treatment of cancer patients

Women with certain mutations in BRCA2 have an increased risk of breast and ovarian cancer. The new study can pave the way for more targeted treatment of a group of cancer patients with mutations in BRCA2.

‘Bacterial arch-enemy’ paves the way for new gene editing

Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have mapped the structure of CRISPR-Cas12j to know exactly how it functions and how it can be used for genome editing in plants and humans.

New method provides unprecedented insight into the biology of cells and disease

Researchers have developed a method for identifying distinct cell states by using proteomic profiles, thereby ensuring that tissue can be very accurately characterized to assist in making clinical decisions.

The death marker protein cleans up your muscles after exercise

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen’s Department of Nutrition, Exercise and Sports have demonstrated that physical activity prompts a clean-up of muscles as the protein Ubiquitin tags onto worn-out proteins,…

A successful ENABLE week

The 2nd European PhD and postdoc symposium ENABLE, hosted on 7th-9th of November in Copenhagen, was a big success. Four European institutes (CPR - Copenhagen, IRB Barcelona, RIMLS - Nijmegen and SEMM - Milan), that were…
