Direct cell reprogramming converts fully differentiated cells into other cell types by forced expression of defined sets of cell-type specific transcription factors (TFs). This enables studies of biological processes and disease mechanisms in neural cells that today are hampered by limited accessibility of human tissue. Astrocytes are crucial for brain function and their dysfunction is associated
Sagem Défense et Sécurité (now Safran Electronics & Defense), a French space and defense company of the SAFRAN group, is working on the next generation of Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). This UAS features a fully automatic Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) equipped with a state-of-the-art navigation system. This navigation system relies mainly on a high-accuracy Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) coupl
The society of today relies heavily on transportation. Goods and people are transported across the globe at an unprecedented scale and volume and the internal combustion engine is an integral part of the world's transportation systems. Combustion engines emit greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming, one of the most serious global threats today. One of several ways to increase effici
Phenomenology beyond the Standard Model is a wide subject and our group is specialised in a few areas as listed below. Projects can be developed in all these areas, and adjacent ones. You are always welcome to contact us to discuss details, or if you have a project idea that you think could fit.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Personer som arbetar med joniserande strålning inom t.ex. sjukvård, kärnteknik och forskning använder så kallade dosimetrar för att registrera hur mycket joniserande strålning (vilken stråldos) personen blivit utsatt för under ett arbetspass eller en arbetsmånad. Den stråldos som en dosimeter mäter ger ett mått på risken för eventuella sena hälsoeffekter i form av en ökIn the event of a radiation accident, it is crucial to make rapid estimates of the absorbed dose received by both emergency workers, so-called first responders, and members of the public. Today, only personnel in rescue teams responding to nuclear emergencies have access to individual dosemeters. To make accurate assessments of the radiological consequences of an emergency situation, methods of re
A major challenge for a person with diabetes is to adapt insulin dosage regimens and food intake to keep blood glucose within tolerable limits during daily life activities. The accurate prediction of blood glucose levels in response to inputs would support the patients with invaluable information for appropriate on-the-spot decision making concerning the management of the disease. Against this bac
The Lund University Academic Orchestra was established in 1745 to provide music for the University’s ceremonies and is thus Sweden’s third-oldest orchestra. Today, it is the symphony orchestra of Lund's university students and has about 60 members. The Conductor and Artistic Director is the University’s Director of Music, Patrik Andersson. The orchestra today Since it was foun

Moraxella catarrhalis (M. catarrhalis) is a human-restricted commensal of the normal bacterial flora in the upper respiratory tract of children, and - during the previous two decades - has been recognised as a true human pathogen. M. catarrhalis is the third most common pathogen causing acute otitis media in children, which is the most common reason to visit a paediatrician during childhood. Acute
Interest in Jane Austen’s fiction and life has never been greater than today. Her narrative works and worlds live on 200 years after their publication not only through their own popularity, but also through numerous re-presentations in the forms of novels, movies, television series, and fan fictions that keep flourishing from her fictional worlds and characters. Austen’s novels, her settings, and
Is the language and terminology used in the Church of Sweden understandable to young people? Many scientists have investigated the religiosity of youth and the liturgical language, but there is no completed study on the relationship between the language that young people use in discussions about existential issues and the language of the representatives of the Church of Sweden.

12 December 2023 to 29 February 2024 Research for a new mixed reality walk for graveyards. A pressing issue today is how we manage the earth’s resources to create a sustainable future, and how we create respectful relationships for peaceful coexistence. In this project Marika Hedemyr tackles these issues artistically. The conceptual starting point is that the smallest ingredients that make up our

The department that exists today can be traced back, on the one hand, to the statistical program organised starting in 1889 by Pontus Fahlbeck (1850–1923), who was professor of political science and statistics at Lund University, and on the other hand, to the research done by Professor Carl Charlier (1862–1934), an astronomer with a strong interest in statistics.

Today it is a matter of course to build airtight buildings both in terms of obtaining a good indoor climate as well as meeting the energy requirements. In the near future the energy requirements will be even tougher which demands for even better solutions than there are today. JM is one of the leading companies in its line of building energy efficient buildings but despite this they have been expe
This report presents the work developing a modular sailboat interior system that offers an easy and affordable way for recreational sailors to customize the interiors of their sailboats according to their different and changing needs. Cruising sailboats are like floating houses or cottages, with the difference that the interior is permanent. They have a long product life and often last for decade
Det finns alltid en strävan att kunna uppskatta stråldoser på bättre och mer effektiva sätt. Om det så handlar om människor som blivit exponerade för joniserande strålning vid en olycka, ett attentat med radioaktiva ämnen eller för att mäta stråldoser på t ex. sjukhus. Idag finns det många kommersiellt tillgängliga alternativ för att utföra dosmätningar, så kallade dosimetrar. Samtidigt hade det vThere is always a need to improve and develop new ways of estimating effective doses to people and environments that have been exposed to ionizing radiation. Dose monitoring is also important in hospitals and the nuclear industry. Today there are several commercially available dosimeters, the most common being thermoluminescent dosimeters, TLDs, made from LiF. These are widely used for personal do
För skapa ett transporteffektivt samhälle kommer kollektivtrafiken att spela en allt större roll i framtidens transportsystem. Om kollektivtrafiken utgör ett reellt alternativ till bilen kan den bidra till både sänkta utsläpp av växthusgaser och marknära partiklar och bidra till en mer effektiv användning av stadens yta. Speciellt i större städer ställs allt högre krav på en effektiv markanvändninIn order to create a more transport efficient society public transport has to play an even bigger role in the future transportation system. If public transport constitutes a realistic alternative to the car it can contribute to both the decrease of greenhouse gases and particles harmful for health, as well as contributing to a more efficient use of city spaces. Especially in larger cities ever hig

Further improvements in the clinical care of our most vulnerable patients-preterm infants-are needed. Novel diagnostic and surveillance tools facilitate such advances. The GASMAS technique has shown potential to become a tool to, noninvasively, monitor gas in the lungs of preterm infants, by placing a laser source and a detector on the chest wall skin. It is believed that this technology will beco
