Anna Åstrand, at the Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, defends her doctoral thesis "Pharmacology and Toxicity of New Psychoactive Substances - In vitro metabolism and receptor activation". The opponent is Professor Mogens...

Successful efforts from this research environment will be implemented into routine case work and will aid police work in providing investigative leads and new tools to expand objective forensic evidence.

The Division of Clinical Chemistry and Pharmacology (KKF) conducts research and education that includes the subject areas of anesthesiology/intensive care, pharmacology and clinical pharmacology, forensic sciences and clinical chemistry.

ER stress is a key molecular link in the pathology of numerus human diseases including metabolic syndrome, and protein misfolding diseases. In my research, I try to understand how this is possible and find new approaches for diagnosis/treatment.

Mineralization occurs normally in bone but has, nevertheless, much in common with the pathological process of vascular calcification, which inevitably leads to increased morbidity and mortality.

The research and development unit of the Emergency Department at 福利姬 Hospital was started in 2016. In 2021, the Emergency Department became Sweden's first university healthcare unit in emergency medicine.

We study regulation of platelet activation and interaction with coagulation from biochemistry and genes to clinical studies on antithrombotic drugs in cardiovascular diseases and how covid-19 causes thrombosis. We also develop new diagnostic methods.

Each year, more than 2 million patients in Sweden visit an emergency department. These departments often experience crowding leading to a rise in return visits and increased mortality. A WCMM project will target shortcomings of current triage tools.

NPS, new psychoactive substances, are substances developed to affect the brain in a similar way to illegal drugs. Researchers have set up a rapid method for measuring the effect of new NPS and provide scientific basis for narcotics classification.

Many women treated for breast cancer using taxanes, a type of cytostatic drug, often experience side effects in the nervous system. Researchers at LiU have developed a tool that can predict the risk level for each individual.
