The Synergistic Effects of Climate Change and Human Activities on Runoff and Sediment Transport Changes of the Yellow River in China

Understanding the synergistic impacts of climate change and human activities on runoff and sediment dynamics is crucial for sustainable watershed management in the Yellow River Basin. This study examined hydrological variations in the Helong section of the Chinese Loess Plateau from 1980 to 2020. The Mann?Kendall and Pettitt tests were used to detect trends and abrupt changes in precipitation, run

Normalizing flows are capable models for bi-manual visuomotor policy

The field of general-purpose robotics has recently embraced powerful probabilistic diffusion-based models to learn the complex embodiment behaviours. However, existing models often come with significant trade-offs, namely high computational costs for inference and a fundamental inability to quantify output uncertainty. We introduce Normalizing Flows Policy (NF-P), a conditional normalizing flow-ba

Medieval highly decorated redware from Lund and Roskilde : A comparison

Among historians and archaeologists, the medieval towns of Roskilde and Lund have been perceived as almost twin towns. Both were founded in the late 10th century, with bishop’s seats established in the 11th century. Both quickly rose to become the most politically, economically, and culturally important ecclesiastical centres in southern Scandinavia, with similar urban landscapes dominated by nume

Handel och logistik på cirkulärt vis : populärvetenskaplig slutrapport

Handelns omställning mot mer cirkulära affärsmodeller lyfts ofta fram som en central del i utvecklingen mot en mer hållbar ekonomi. Samtidigt visar praktiken att cirkulär handel innebär betydande utmaningar, inte minst för handelns logistik och operativa strukturer.Denna rapport är resultatet av ett tvåårigt forskningsprojekt som syftar till att öka förståelsen för hur logistiknätverk behöver utfo

Towards Trustworthy Machine Learning in High-Stakes Decision Making

The reliable integration of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) into safety-critical settings requires guarantees that extend beyond empirical accuracy. Despite strong prediction performance, DNNs remain vulnerable to adversarial perturbations, information leakage, and disparities across different populations. Addressing these limitations demands scalable methods for formally analyzing network behavior un

ExposoGraph : An Interactive Platform for Carcinogen Bioactivation and Detoxification Pathway Visualization

Despite extensive cataloging of carcinogenic exposures by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and pharmacogenomic variation by resources such as PharmVar and CPIC, few platforms unify exposure, metabolic activation and detoxification, DNA damage, and genetic annotation within a single interactive visualization framework. This gap limits systematic evaluation of gene-environment

Integrated Host Genetics and Skin Microbiome Profiling Suggest an HLA-C-Peptostreptococcus Axis in Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated disease driven by genetic susceptibility and environmental factors, including microbial exposure. While HLA-C-linked variants represent the strongest genetic risk factors, their relationship with the cutaneous microbiome remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to investigate host-microbiome interactions in psoriasis through integrative multi-omics a

Dwelling and new ruralities : collective artistic research in a design studio at Lund School of Architecture (2021–2025)

This publication presents a collective investigation into contemporary rural transformation developed through a series of design studios at Lund School of Architecture between 2021 and 2025. Focusing on the notion of “new ruralities,” the work explores how changing relationships between habitation, work, mobility, technology, and ecology are reshaping conditions of dwelling in the countryside.The

Exhibition rural dwelling in Grönby : projects by students at Lund School of Architecture

This exhibition presented the architectural projects and models developed within the Dwelling and Space design studio at Lund School of Architecture. The work explores contemporary rural living through design proposals situated in the village of Grönby.The exhibition was held in Grönby and formed part of an ongoing artistic research investigation into new ruralities. It was organized in collaborat

Tryptophan metabolism in embryo implantation and decidualization

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid for the human body and is crucial for protein synthesis. It is primarily metabolized through the kynurenine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, and indole pathways. The various bioactive compounds produced through tryptophan metabolism can regulate a range of physiological functions, including digestive, metabolic, immune responses, and neurological functions. New evidence

Possibilities and pitfalls of educating first and second year students in one design studio

This paper identifies a challenging situation in the architectural education. It discusses the case of mixing two levels of students, working in a group albeit with the same assignment in one studio. Precisely, having the first and the second year students of Architecture in one design studio at Lund University/ Sweden. The paper examines this situation from four different didactic perspectives, s

Widespread exposure to GLP-1RAs and weight loss-related discourse : Considering potential public health implications

Incretin-based therapies, including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), are approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and related conditions, and have demonstrated significant benefits for individuals with these conditions. However, in recent years, public interest and demand for GLP-1RAs-often driven by media, social media influencers, advertising, and public disco

Free or Framed? : The shifting ecospheres of guldgubbar

This paper explores guldgubbar, small gold foil figures from Vendel Period Scandinavia (c. 550–800 CE), through a new materialist lens, moving beyond representational interpretations rooted in Cartesian thought, that usually frames images to be in stasis. Instead of seeking a singular meaning, the study focuses on the figures’ materiality, affective qualities, and ontological openness. Drawing on

Surface orientation-dependent electro-oxidation of a polycrystalline gold electrode

The activity and stability of an electrocatalyst is governed by the structural and chemical changes occurring at the solid–liquid interface. While single crystal electrodes have often served as model systems to elucidate structure–function relationships, extending these insights to more realistic polycrystalline electrodes requires experimental techniques with spatial resolution that can operate u

Synergin mellan Strål- och Immun-Terapi : Nästa Generation av Tumörterapi?

Denna berättelse om Synergi mellan Strål- och Immun-Terapi har sitt ursprung i resultaten av försök som utfördes år 2001 vilka avsåg att kombinera tumörvaccin-behandling med strålterapi av Fischer-344 råttor med gliom-tumörer inokulerade i hjärnan.Med 3 omgångar tumörvaccin kombinerat med endast en fraktion strålterapi á 5Gy, överlevde sex av åtta behandlade djur (ca.75%). Detta dramatiska resulta
