Popular science ArRiyadh, the capital city of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the fastest growing cities in the world. During the last decade the population of the city has been increased to five million due to heavy migration towards the city. Due to this population pressure, the living conditions in the different neighborhoods of the city are different. The residents in any city are mainly
Olyckor vid vägarbetszoner är ett ihållande trafiksäkerhetsproblem i många europeiska länder. IRIS-projektet (Incursion Reduction to Increase Safety in road work zones) finansierat av CEDR samlade in information om bästa praxis inom trafikledning vid vägarbetsplatser. En analys av olyckor i arbetszonen och en översyn av bästa praxis gjordes. Psykologiska problem för att förbättra säkerheten i arbe
Objectives: At a European Society of Neuroradiology (ESNR) Annual Meeting 2015 workshop, commonalities in practice, current controversies and technical hurdles in glioma MRI were discussed. We aimed to formulate guidance on MRI of glioma and determine its feasibility, by seeking information on glioma imaging practices from the European Neuroradiology community. Methods: Invitations to a structured
Sweden has an ambitious plan to fully decarbonise district heating by 2030 and to contribute with negative emissions of greenhouse gases in 2050. The vagaries of the energy market associated with climate, political, and social changes entail cross-sectoral integration that can fulfill these national targets. Fifth-generation district heating and cooling (5GDHC) is a relatively new concept of distr
This study focuses on the part of the policy process called implementation. Theorists like Lipsky (1980) and Rice (2012) assign the street-level bureaucrats a major role in this process. The street-level bureaucrats of object in this study are personnel on group homes for unaccompanied minors. Since the children do not have anyone else to look after them, it is the welfare states responsibility to
Arbetet med att uppmuntra allmänheten att skaffa sig en elementär beredskap för att kunna klara av till exempel längre elavbrott eller föroreningar i dricksvatten behöver förbättras på en rad olika punkter, visar ett examensarbete skrivet av Joel Rödström, Lunds Tekniska Högskola. I det moderna samhället förlitar vi oss på att leveranser av el, mat, vatten och värme fungerar. Att vi vant oss vidThe urban human of today is becoming increasingly dependent on different functions of the society to survive, such as electricity and communications, functions which are sensitive to e.g. storms. The on-going climate change is and will further put a pressure on these functions. Concerns have risen that today’s public is limited in its ability to independently deal with the consequences of societal
Surrogacy is prohibited in many European states. However, such a ban is not global. This can create problems when individuals from states where surrogacy is prohibited travel to other states where it is allowed and become legally recognised parents of children born through surrogacy in the latter states. The implications of cross-border surrogacy come into reality when the intended parents return
During the past decade, scholars have produced a vast amount of research using linked historical individual-level data, shaping and changing our understanding of the past. This linked data revolution has been powered by methodological and computational advances, partly focused on supervised machine-learning methods that rely on training data. The importance of obtaining high-quality training data
There is a need for ground-breaking technologies to boost crop yield, both grains and biomass, and their processing into economically competitive materials. Novel cereals with enhanced photosynthesis and assimilation of greenhouse gasses, such as carbon dioxide and ozone, and tailored straw suitable for industrial manufacturing, open a new perspective for the circular economy. Here we describe the

The number of individuals suffering from neuropsychiatric disorders (NPDs) has increased worldwide, with 3 million disability-adjusted life-years calculated in 2019. Though research using various approaches including genetics, imaging, clinical and animal models has advanced our knowledge regarding NPDs, we still lack basic knowledge regarding the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. Moreover
