Many flying animals, like birds feeding their young, make commuting flights between a central place and foraging areas in the surroundings. Such central place foraging (CPF) represents a special case of foraging theory. We use simple geometry and trigonometry to analyse CPF flight performance (a round-trip cycle of outward flight from the central place and inward flight back along the reverse trac
Epilepsy is a devastating neurological disorder characterized by synchronous neuronal activity, which manifests as epileptic seizures. It usually develops after an initial insult, such as head trauma or stroke, which triggers the epileptogenic process. During epileptogenesis, the affected brain regions undergo multiple changes in connectivity and gene expression, and among the most affected genes Epilepsy is a devastating neurological disorder characterized by synchronous neuronal activity, which manifests as epileptic seizures.

Purpose: This article explores how public librarians understand and perform the democratic mission of public libraries in times of political and social turbulence, and critically discusses the idea of public libraries as meeting places.Methodology: Five group interviews conducted with public librarians in southern Sweden are analyzed using a typology of four perspectives on democracy.Findings: TwoPurposeThis article explores how public librarians understand and perform the democratic mission of public libraries in times of political and social turbulence and critically discusses the idea of public libraries as meeting places.Design/methodology/approachFive group interviews conducted with public librarians in southern Sweden are analyzed using a typology of four perspectives on democracy.Fi
Public engagement in local environmental planning and decision-making is often advocated on various grounds, both instrumental and normative. Yet in developed countries in the context of renewable energy infrastructure deployment, place attachment, place identity and place-protective action continue to be implicated in public objection. We set out an interdisciplinary change readiness hypothesis o
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
The Summary for Urban Policymakers (SUP) initiative provides a distillation of the IPCC reports into accessible and targeted summaries that can help inform action at city and regional scales. Volume I in the series, What the Latest Physical Science of Climate Change Means for Cities, identified the ways in which human-induced climate change is affecting every region of the world, and the cities an
Uppsatsen har undersökt huruvida spelföretaget Star Stable Entertainment AB marknadsföring av virtuella valutor och produkter till barn bryter mot EU:s konsumentskyddslagstiftning i ljuset av Sveriges Konsumenters anmälan mot företaget. Uppsatsen har även diskuterat om direktivet om otillbörliga affärs-metoder är anpassat för den digitala miljön med hänsyn till kommissionens aktuella fitness checkThe essay analyses whether the gaming company Star Stable Entertainment AB´s marketing of virtual currencies and other virtual products against chil-dren violates EU consumer law, considering the Swedish Consumers Associ-ation’s complaint against the company. The paper also discusses whether the Unfair Commercial Practice Directive (UCPD) is fit for the digital environ-ment, given the European Com
This master thesis examines disabled residents’ roles as citizens in a place branding process within the political framework of a place. This is in line with the resident approach in a political context within the research field of place branding. My contribution to the resident approach is a case study in the municipality of Borås, where I study the organized work of accessibility between citizen
We use a variational approach to find the best constants for certain Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities on the real line. To show the existence of a minimizer, we use the method of concentration-compactness.
This report titled Best available technologies and techniques for large point sources has been prepared within the framework of the programme on Regional Air Pollution in Developing Countries (RAPIDC), Phase III conducted during the period 2005-2008. RAPIDC is funded by the Department of Infrastructure and Economic Cooperation (INEC) of the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency SIDA
Brain organoid technology has seen significant development in recent years. This self-organized, three-dimensional, organ-oriented brain tissue model can recapitulate the process of neurogenesis and consists of diverse cell types and cellular architecture. Transplanting brain organoids in vivo could be a potential tool from bench to clinical research and has been studied for many purposes. To inve
Place branders express a desire for their work to aid in addressing crises such as climate change through sustainable developments that assist with brand positioning, yet little is known about how place branding professionals manage tensions and contradictions that arise between sustainability and investment development. This paper qualitatively explores how place branders talk about ecological su
Popular Abstract in Swedish Blommor använder färg och doft för att locka till sig pollinatörer. Hur använder sig svärmare av dessa olika signaler för att hitta blomman? För att få svar på denna fråga undersöktes två arter av svärmare, en dagaktiv, Macroglossum stellatarum, och en nattaktiv, Deilephila elpenor. Båda arterna har färgseende och den nattaktiva svärmaren kan skilja på olika färger äveFlowers use different cues to attract pollinators including colour and odour. How do hawkmoths use these cues to find the flowers? This question was investigated in two species of hawkmoth, the diurnal species, Macroglossum stellatarum, and the nocturnal species, Deilephila elpenor. Both species have colour vision and D. elpenor can discriminate colours under very dim light intensities. Both speci
In order to find out whether an interval appendectomy is necessary after an appendicitis with a palpable mass, we retrospectively studied the reports of 50 patients who underwent an interval appendectomy. Out of the 50 patients 5 (10%) developed complications of the appendiceal mass. Intraoperative findings of the interval appendectomy: 32 (64%) had adhesions; 2 (4%) appendices were resorbed; 2 (4
