Lund University collaborates and cooperates with top universities all over the world through international networks, programmes and platforms. Global Dynamic Engagement (GDE) is Lund University's approach to enhance our international impact in research, education, innovation and cooperation. In this work, democracy, human rights, academic freedom, and accountability are core values.Through GDE, we
En domstol är skyldig att genom s.k. materiell processledning verka för att ett mål blir tillräckligt utrett. Kravet gäller under hela rättegången och i alla instanser. Mitt syfte med denna uppsats är att fastställa hur långtgående materiell processledning i dispositiva tvistemål bör vara och vilka omständigheter som bör spela in när omfattningen av sådan processledning i enskilda fall bestäms. D
Submerged breakwaters (SBWs) are becoming a popular option for coastal protection, mainly due to their low aesthetic impact on the natural environment. However, SBWs have rarely been employed for coastal protection in the past and therefore, their efficacy remains largely unknown. The main objective of the present study was to investigate the structural and environmental conditions that govern the
The COVID-19 crisis introduced telecommuting and distance schooling into households all around the world. When national authorities enforced mitigation measures, they not only limited the spread of the disease, but also altered the lifestyle of many people. The joint effect of millions of people adapting to the new reality gave rise to an altered residential energy consumption pattern. Knowledge a
Old age is associated with an enhanced susceptibility to stroke and poor recovery from brain injury, but the cellular processes underlying these phenomena are only partly understood. Therefore, studying the basic mechanisms underlying structural and functional recovery after brain injury in aged subjects is of considerable clinical interest. Behavioral and cytological analyses of rodents that have

Rapid and adaptable diagnostic capabilities are of great importance in the face of emerging infectious diseases. In an outbreak, timely establishment of diagnostic routines is crucial to identifying cases and preventing the spread of the disease, especially when faced with high-consequence pathogens. In this article, we describe a multiagency exercise including the rapid deployment and diagnostic
This paper aims to evaluate the effect of the U.S. monetary policy on the bitcoin price. In particular, how monetary policy easing affects the bitcoin returns. One of the main tenets of bitcoin is that it is a hedge against inflation caused by a large increase in the money supply. Inspired by that idea, this study intends to analyze bitcoin’s instant response to the Federal Reserve’s monetary poli
Natural capital has emerged as the dominant response to revaluing nature in the context of deepening ecological degradation. The belief is that we make the contribution of nature to our well-being visible by seeing it as a form of capital alongside human-produced capitals. This would, it is assumed, help correct the observed imbalances between the capitals and prevent further ecological destructio
Agri-environmental schemes have been applied with the goal to mitigate negative effects of agriculture on biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. However, on evaluating the schemes the results have been variable and shown both positive and neutral effects. These variable effects can be attributed to not taking into account important factors affecting the variables at test, such as biodiversity. Th
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a very efficient treatment for severe depression. However, cognitive side effects have raised concern to whether ECT can cause cellular damage in vulnerable brain regions. A few recent animal studies have reported limited hippocampal cell loss, while a number of other studies have failed to find any signs of cellular damage and some even report that electroconvul
Bacteria and fungi are the two principal decomposer groups in soils, determining rates of biogeochemical cycling. Rewetting of dry soils induces enormous dynamics in biogeochemistry. Bacteria have been shown to exhibit large variation in growth over time upon drying-rewetting (D/RW), however, in studies to date, fungal growth has shown limited responsiveness. Here we investigated whether fungal gr
