ROBIN: Boosting Biomedical Spinouts

Nov 21, 2024 | health.au.dk | Line Rønn

Jane Palsgaard’s door in the Skou Building is always open - metaphorically speaking. Together with Innovation Professor Claus Elsborg Olesen, she has formalized support for employees at the Department of Biomedicine who dream of entrepreneurship or partnerships with industry. This initiative is offered through the Research Office for Biomedical Innovation (ROBIN), launched in August 2024. At ROBIN, researchers can get assistance regardless of how far along they are in their plans.
Wastewater will reveal consumption of drugs of abuse among Danes

Oct 30, 2024 | health.au.dk | Line Rønn

Wastewater is increasingly used as a source of information to improve public health. Now, the Department of Forensic Medicine at Aarhus University and the Danish Health Authority have launched a wastewater measurement project across six cities—Copenhagen, Næstved, Odense, Esbjerg, Aarhus, and Aalborg—to monitor the consumption of common drugs of abuse.
"The kidney has always been my favourite organ"

Ina Maria Schiessl will never forget the first time she saw a working kidney. It was her very first day as a PhD student. She stood in a laboratory at the University of Southern California in the USA. A rat was being examined using intravital microscopy, a technique that captures images of biological processes in living animals. The researchers injected dye into the rat.

FORENSICSNew Method for Fingerprint Analysis Holds Great PromisePublished 17 September 2024Overlapping and weak fingerprints pose challenges in criminal cases. A new study offers a solution and brings hope for using chemical residues in fingerprints for personal profiling. A groundbreaking study has made it possible to extract much more information from fingerprints as evidence than what is currently achievable.
Chemical imaging method holds promise for separate overlapping fingerprints

Sep 13, 2024 | phys.org | Line Rønn

A new study from the Department of Forensic Medicine at Aarhus University is the first in the world to analyze fingerprints on gelatin lifters using chemical imaging. This could be crucial in criminal cases where current methods fall short.

A fine spray of solventA solution is presented in the new study from the Department of Forensic Medicine at Aarhus University, recently published in the scientific journal Analytical Chemistry. "We are presenting a method that has the potential to be integrated into the police's traditional workflow. If this happens, more fingerprints from crime scenes could be used and evaluated both visually and chemically," says postdoc Kim Frisch, who is behind the study.
Music can reveal which areas of the brain are affected by aging

Sep 4, 2024 | medicalxpress.com | Line Rønn

Older people are just as capable as younger individuals of remembering musical pieces—but certain parts of their brains must work harder. This is shown in a new study from Aarhus University, recently published in the journal Communications Biology. The study is remarkable because it combines classical music and neurophysiology to map the changes that occur in the brain with age.

New safety checklist aims to prevent side effects in patients with arthritis

Aug 5, 2024 | medicalxpress.com | Line Rønn

Inappropriate prescription of an antirheumatic drug for an unsuitable patient can lead to severe side effects such as intestinal perforations, blood clots, heart failure, or liver damage. To address this issue, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at Aarhus University and the Rheumatology Department at the University Clinic for Innovative Patient Pathways in Silkeborg have developed a comprehensive safety checklist for the newer medications used in treating rheumatic diseases.
Research explains why virus causing cold sores does not spread to devastating brain infection

Aug 5, 2024 | medicalxpress.com | Line Rønn

More than half of us are carriers of chronic herpesvirus infections. But even though the herpesvirus can infect our nerve cells, it rarely causes serious infection of the brain. Researchers from Aarhus University have now discovered a key element of the explanation. The researchers have discovered a previously unknown defense mechanism in the body that is the reason why herpes infection causes a serious and potentially fatal brain inflammation in only one out of 250,000 cases.
