Identification of novel biomarkers for early diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment decision will be instrumental for improving disease outcome for patients suffering from complex diseases, such as cancer and autoimmune disorders. Within personalized medicine, the use of circulating biomarkers will allow clinicians to tailor medical treatment based on individual characteristics of each patient, using
Based on a previous content analysis work, there is nowadays a need for assessing a list of strategies related to the management of supply chains and logistics discipline, such as postponement, customisation, centralisation/decentralisation, etc. The need for environmental assessment of these strategies stems from the challenging necessity for bridging two fields: logistics/supply chain management
We compared manual lymph drainage (MLD) with sequential pneumatic compression (SPC) for treatment of unilateral arm lymphedema in 28 women previously treated for breast cancer. After 2 weeks of therapy with a standard compression sleeve (Part I) with maintenance of a steady arm volume, each patient was randomly assigned to either one of two treatment regimens (Part II). MLD was performed according
Taking as the starting point the increasing interest for utilizing public procurement as a means to stimulate innovation, this paper explores some considerations for curriculum development for teaching public procurement of innovation. A basic understanding of what is a curriculum was used as a foundation for the development of a master level course in public procurement of innovation in a univers
In this paper, we propose a new methodology for optimal memory mapping of data and instructions to Scratch-Pad Memories (SPM). In the mapping process, we optimize, as the main priority, the number of memory accesses to minimize power consumption. Minimization of external memory accesses lowers switching activity and therefore power consumption. The optimization is done by finding Pareto-points, us
The Swedish HE Ordinance requires all supervisors of doctoral students to undergo introductory training. The content, goals, learning outcomes and duration is not specified by the Ordinance and thus practices vary between institutions. In 2009/2010, a new study program for doctoral supervisors was launched at Lund University. The program was designed to:- provide research-based support for doctora
The traditional sheet metal forming process, including cast steel die tool and conventional work materials, is fairly well established and analysed. Developments of new alternative materials make great demands upon new forming processes and manufacturing methods. A general goal for the manufacturing industries is to reduce the weight of metal parts, reduce batch sizes and reduce the lead-time of n
