Forskarna inom detta område arbetar med forskning om bruk, skadligt bruk och beroende av alkohol och andra droger, ofta ur ett socialvetenskapligt perspektiv. Även beroendeproblem kopplade till spel om pengar och dopning berörs. Forskningen rör såväl människors livsvillkor och erfarenheter som vårdens, socialtjänstens och andra samhällsaktörers arbete. Forskningen har en bred metodologisk ansats oResearchers in this area study the use, harmful use, and dependence on alcohol and other drugs, often from a social science perspective. Gambling-related addiction problems and doping are also included. The research addresses both people’s living conditions and experiences, and the work of healthcare services, social services, and other societal actors. It takes a broad methodological approach and

Vård av svårt och kritiskt sjuka patienter är avancerad och innebär stöd av vitala funktioner. Användningen av t.ex. respirator och dialysmaskin är livräddande, men innebär också risker för komplikationer f.f.a. sekundära infektioner. Medicintekniska produkter, såväl apparater som förbrukningsmaterial skall vara så säkra som möjligt att använda. Projektet har två inriktningar, båda syftande till pSupport of vital body functions is the essence of the care of severely and critically ill patients. Use of mechanical ventilation and dialysis is life saving but also increases the risks for complications, above all secondary infections. Medical technical devices, apparatus as well as single use articles should be as safe as possible to use. Our group has two lines of interest both aiming at prop

IMPORTANCE: Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most prevalent sustained arrhythmia, portends higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and is associated with quantifiable impairment in quality of life. While physical activity is widely recognized for its cardiovascular benefits, recent evidence challenges its role in the development of AF. OBSERVATIONS: Emerging data suggest a U-shaped rel

Sweden's ATMP ecosystem is rapidly expanding, solidifying its place as a key player in Europe. Currently ranking among the top three countries among the EU9 for identified therapeutic ATMP companies, Sweden's strategic investments are further reinforcing its leadership (MSC 2020). This includes ongoing initiatives to establish industrial-scale ATMP manufacturing capabilities, enhancing the country

BioMS is the national infrastructure for biological mass spectrometry (MS). BioMS offers access to qualified projects in proteogenomics, targeted protein quantitation, glycoproteomics, hydrogen-deuterium exchange MS, glycomics, lipidomics, and chemical proteomics. Detailed information and the project application forms can be found at www.bioms.se. BioMS is hosted by Lund University with support fr

In markets with fierce competition and low switching costs, the capability to keep customers is just as important as the capability to get new customers. One of the cornerstones of efficiently keeping customers from churning is the ability to identify customers that are more prone to leaving the company than others. This way, churn prevention resources and measures can be efficiently directed towa

Background: The plumage of birds is important for flying, insulation and social communication. Contour feathers cover most of the avian body and among other functions they provide a critical insulation layer against heat loss. Feather structure and composition are known to vary among individuals, which in turn determines variation in the insulation properties of the feather. However, the extent an

Gruppen driver forskning kring mätning och behandling av svår kronisk andnöd (dyspné) samt behandling av kronisk andningssvikt. Gruppen har nära samarbete med ledande forskare nationellt och ett internationellt forskningsnätverk kring klinisk dyspnéforskning. Studier inkluderar epidemiologiska analyser, Cochrane meta-analyser, kliniska kohortstudier samt randomiserade kontrollerade behandlingsstudThe research group focuses on the mechanisms, measurement and treatment of severe chronic breathlessness (dyspnea) and management of chronic respiratory failure. The research is conducted in close collaboration with leading researchers nationally and an international research network. Studies include epidemiological analyses, Cochrane meta-analyses, clinical cohorts and randomized controlled trial

Enheten för psykiatrisk epidemiologi och folkhälsa studerar ämnesområden som exempelvis psykossjukdomar, suicidologi, beroendetillstånd och neuropsykiatriska tillstånd med klassiska och moderna epidemiologiska metoder. Dessa frågor belyses dels utifrån ett kliniskt perspektiv med traditionella frågeställningar gällande riskfaktorer, utfall, överlevnad och farmakoepidemiologi, dels utifrån ett folkThe Unit for Psychiatric Epidemiology and Public Health studies subject areas such as psychotic disorders, suicidology, substance use disorders, and neuropsychiatric conditions using classical and modern epidemiological methods. These issues are examined both from a clinical perspective, with traditional research questions regarding risk factors, outcomes, survival, and pharmacoepidemiology, and f

In diffusion MRI (dMRI), images are sensitised to water diffusion by the application of magnetic field gradients. Cell membranes hinder the diffusional motion and thereby contribute to the contrast in dMRI. Thus, the diffusion of water molecules is used a probe of tissue microstructure. Data from dMRI is often analysed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which yields image biomarkers that reflecIn diffusion MRI (dMRI), images are sensitised to water diffusion by the application of magnetic field gradients.

We report on the use of a sacrificial AlAs segment to enable substrate reuse for nanowire synthesis. A silicon nitride template was deposited on a p-type GaAs substrate. Then a pattern was transferred to the substrate by nanoimprint lithography and reactive ion etching. Thermal evaporation was used to define Au seed particles. Metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy was used to grow AlAs-GaAs NWs in the

The construction industry is ranked number one compared to other sectors when it comes to waste generated in the European Union. Reuse of products is a priority within the European Union to reduce the need for virgin materials and to reduce waste. Looking back at past practices, various approaches have been suggested to increase reuse of construction products, although these approaches have fallen
