If you thought a book about thesis writing would make for wearisome reading, think again! In seven entertaining and enlightening chapters, Mikael Sundström sheds light on the trials and tribulations of academic writing, offering guidance on how to become a doyen of academic disaster – and, more importantly, how to avoid that fate.Prepare to consider your academic writing in a whole new way.

BACKGROUND. Understanding the genetic architecture of cardiac structure and function may help to prevent and treat heart disease. This investigation sought to identify common genetic variations associated with inter-individual variability in cardiac structure and function. METHODS. A GWAS meta-analysis of echocardiographic traits was performed, including 46,533 individuals from 30 studies (EchoGen
Soil protists are increasingly recognized as key players in organic matter turnover, yet their role as direct decomposers (i.e., saprotrophs) remains underexplored compared to that of bacteria and fungi. Here, we synthesize ecological, physiological, and genomic evidence to highlight the potential of protists to actively decompose organic matter and influence soil carbon cycling. We distinguish tw
The compositions of alternative jet fuels can vary radically, and the consequences of these differences are a subject of ongoing investigation. Numerical combustion simulations are vital to this research and require chemical reaction mechanisms that efficiently and accurately capture the chemical pathways of combustion. Here, we present the recently developed Z79 collection of small pathway-centri
Carbon-14 (14C) is an important contributor to the collective effective dose to the public due to releases from nuclear power plants (NPPs). In Sweden, only airborne emissions of 14C from NPPs are currently routinely monitored, and the existing data on waterborne 14C discharges are limited. A recent study of 14C in brown algae (Fucus spp.) in Swedish coastal waters showed higher F14C values collec
Ribbed channel flows play a crucial role in various engineering systems where turbulence enhancement and improved heat transfer are required, such as in turbine blade cooling and combustor wall applications. Numerical simulations have emerged as an essential tool for analyzing the intricate turbulence dynamics and flow separation phenomena, which are fundamental for optimizing the channel performa
We demonstrate that finite impulse response (FIR) models can be applied to analyze the time evolution of an epidemic with its impact on deaths and healthcare strain. Using time series data for COVID-19-related cases, ICU admissions and deaths from Sweden, the FIR model gives a consistent epidemiological trajectory for a simple delta filter function. This results in a consistent scaling between the
While air pollution data in Ethiopia is limited, existing studies indicate high levels of both ambient and household air pollution; rapid urbanization also threatens the preservation of urban green spaces. In this study, environmental injustice, or the disproportionate burden of environmental exposures on persons of lower socioeconomic status (SES), was explored among women in Ethiopia using a mot
This study assesses the potential benefit of Blue-Green Solutions (BGS), green rooftops, rain gardens, permeable pavements, and bioswales, in Lisbon, Portugal. These proposed mitigation measures are applied using TFM-DYN (Nilsson et al., 2021) to simulate potential fluvial flooding distributions from a 10- and 50-year rain event.Water depth of over 30 centimeters can cause damage to infrastructure
The TFM-DYN model represents a significant advancement from static flow accumulation estimations into dynamic hydrological modeling (Nilsson et al., 2021). It incorporates variable precipitation in time and space as input together with high-resolution topography and includes functions for friction and infiltration to produce results such as water depths, flow velocity, inundated areas, flow pathwa
Lean, premixed, swirl-stabilized flames are widely used in modern Dry Low Emissions gas turbine combustors; however, the turbulent combustion process under those conditions is known to be extremely sensitive and prone to instabilities. Numerical simulations can be a valuable tool in predicting the effects of alternative fuels; however, the sensitivity of the results to different models ought to be
The combustion of conventional Jet A, alongside two alternative jet fuels, C1 and C5, is simulated with Large Eddy Simulations (LES) in a generic single-cup spray combustor during idle and cruise conditions. The spray is modeled using Lagrangian particle tracking and the combustion chemistry of each fuel is modeled by skeletal reaction mechanisms. The volatility and atomizability of each fuel dire
In numerical combustion research, accurate chemical reaction mechanisms for heavy hydrocarbons are essential to investigate the flame dynamics of Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) relative to conventional jet fuels. However, accounting for hundreds or thousands of reactions makes Finite-Rate Chemistry (FRC) Large Eddy Simulations (LES) impractical for realistic engineering scenarios. In the present
Agricultural intensification at field and landscape scales, including increased use of agrochemicals and loss of semi-natural habitats, is a major driver of insect declines and other community changes. Efforts to understand and mitigate these effects have traditionally focused on ecological responses. At the same time, adaptations to pesticide use and habitat fragmentation in both insects and flow
During epileptic seizures, neuronal network activity is hyper synchronized whereby GABAergic parvalbumin-interneurons may have a key role. Previous studies have mostly utilized 4-aminopyridine to induce epileptiform discharges in brain slices from healthy animals. However, it is not clear if the seizure-triggering ability of parvalbumin-interneurons also holds true without the use of external conv
