Background: Research is needed on how to optimize the return-to-work process for persons with mental health problems.Objective: To develop a model that explains how employer and rehabilitation professional mental health literacy may influence strategies used in the return-to-work of persons with mental health problems.Methods: A grounded theory study design was used to collect and analyse intervie

Based on multiphase field conception and integrated with the idea of vectorvalued phase field, a phase field model for typical allotropic transformation of solid solution is proposed. The model takes the non-uniform distribution of grain boundaries of parent phase and crystal orientation into account in proper way, as being illustrated by the simulation of austenite to ferrite transformation in lo

Translationell cancerforskning bildades 2013 som en del av Lunds universitets cancercenter (LUCC) på Medicon Village. TCR består av nio grupper som arbetar med olika frågeställningar och tumörtyper, men med ett gemensamt mål att utveckla nya behandlingsmetoder. Frågeställningarna bearbetas multidisciplinärt med hjälp av cellbiologi, bioinformatik, musmodeller, humana vävnadsarrayer och avancerade The Division of Translational Cancer Research (TCR) was founded 2013 in conjunction with the formation of Lund University Cancer Center (LUCC) at Medicon Village. TCR consists of nine research groups with different areas of expertise, but together working on projects with the common goal of improving cancer diagnostics and cancer therapy. Our multidisciplinary experimental settings include human g

Enheten för psykosocial suicidforskning studerar suicidalitet utifrån ett integrerat samhälleligt, psykologiskt och epidemiologiskt perspektiv. Forskningen syftar till att fördjupa förståelsen av de komplexa och föränderliga processer som leder till och påverkar suicidalt beteende, genom att analysera samspelet mellan individuella livsvillkor, sociala relationer och strukturella faktorer. Vi kombiThe Unit for Psychosocial Suicide Research investigates suicidality through an integrated sociological, psychological, and epidemiological lens. Our research aims to advance theoretical and empirical understanding of the complex and dynamic processes that give rise to and shape suicidal behaviour, by analysing the interplay between individual life circumstances, social relationships, and structura

The energy transition of housing is accelerating in parallel with economic inequality reaching historically high levels. There is thus an opportunity to reduce inequalities in living conditions, but also a risk that the costs of the transition are unequally distributed and aggravate existing inequalities. In order to seize the opportunity for a just transition, and in tandem enable a meaningful in

Popular Abstract in English These days we hear a lot about sustainability and most of us try to live in a more sustainable way. We use less water and energy, we sort our household waste and we prefer to consume products that are produced with less negative human impact. However, when it comes to our own excreta we definitely think of it as waste. And we are glad enough that wastewater treatment syEutrophication or the nutrient enrichment of water bodies, typically by nitrogen and phosphorus has adversely affected the aquatic life and the quality of water. Governments have been forced to take actions in order to reduce the release of these nutrients into the environment. To date the main global effort has been to remove such nutrients at source. However, with an increase in awareness of the

Administrativa avdelningen ger stöd till avdelningarna inom LU Service gällande ekonomi, personal och andra administrativa rutiner. Enheten har även ansvar för universitetsbutiken, driften av LU parkeringsplatser, provsamordning för samhällsvetenskapliga fakulteten samt receptionen på Campus i Helsingborg.The administrative department provides support to the departments within LU Service regarding finances, personnel and other administrative routines. The unit is also responsible for the university shop, the operation of LU parking lots, test coordination for the Faculty of Social Sciences and the reception on the Campus in Helsingborg

Presentation at panel on Nordic Trust, International Anti-corruption Conference, Copenhagen. This paper argues that trust and control should not be seen as opposites, and that formulating a theory of Nordic corruption (which is based on networks and cronyism rather than bribery) a better approach is a hybrid concept of 'trusted control' or 'controlled trust'

Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative joint disease, and a rapidly growing cause of musculoskeletal disability, chronic pain, and reduced quality of life in an ageing European population. Our aims are to gain novel insights into osteoarthritis - its etiology, occurrence, natural history, treatments, prediction, disease monitoring, and disease burden - to allow for better care, decision making,

To combat climate change, it is anticipated that in the coming years countries around the world will adopt more stringent policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase the use of clean energy sources. These policies will also affect the industry sector, which means that industrial production is likely to progressively shift from CO2-emitting fossil fuel sources to renewable energy sourc

Traumatisk hjärnskada (THS) är en vanlig orsak till död och kvarstående handikapp och idag saknas effektiva behandlingar. Vår forskargrupp använder experimentella och kliniska tekniker att studera THS, från de allra svåraste skadorna till de mer milda skadorna som kan ses exempelvis efter hjärnskakning inom idrotten. Hjärnans egen förmåga till läkning är begränsad efter THS och ett viktig mål för Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common cause of death and disabilities and current treatment options are limited. The research group uses experimental and clinical approaches to study TBI, from the most severe brain injuries to the milder sport-related concussions. The brain´s own capacity for repair is poor and one research aim is to enhance brain recovery and repair following injury. TBI is al

Semiconductor nanostructure based devices provide new opportunities for contributing to a sustainable energy usage. This includes harvesting of energy (solar cells) and saving of energy, e.g. in lighting (light-emitting diodes, LEDs) and transfer of energy (power devices). However, development and improvement of nanostructure devices requires thorough characterization and understanding on a single
