Researchers at Karolinska Institutet had in 2021 developed a technique making possible to examine how different versions of histones bind to the genome in tens of thousands of individual cells.

But by visualizing the cancer cells, researchers have now gained a better understanding of what the tumors look like.

Researchers have created a tool that maps how breast cancer grows in previously unseen detail, and highlights how the cells around the tumor may be the key to controlling the spread of disease.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning are becoming increasingly important to map the proteins in our cells and how they interact with each other.

Martin Högbom, professor in biochemistry, Head of the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, and Wallenberg Scholar, talks about his research in this video from the Knut och Alice Wallenberg Foundation.

The novel mechanism could help scientists design better antibiotics by targeting a pathogen’s ability to reproduce.

Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) is an essential enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of DNA building blocks.

By understanding why certain nerve cells and the muscles they control are resistant to fading in the deadly disease ALS, it is possible to create new possibilities for treatments.

Through molecular genealogy, Pål Stenmark (professor of biochemistry) has found a new family of botulinum toxins, where a variant can fight malaria mosquitoes.

Researchers at Stockholm University shed new light on how transporter-protein exchangers the movement of sodium ions across cell membranes with the movement of protons.

We offer a broad selection of specialized courses held in English that can be taken both as freestanding courses or as part of one of our Master's programmes.
