Private Rivers is a study of contested processes whereby use rights to water are privatised for electricity production. It engages with the issues of renewable energy solutions and the sustainability of run-of-river hydro projects in Turkey by investigating the connection between these policies and justice for rural populations, whose livelihood depends on the rivers. Since 2001, water privatisati

Maligna lymfom är tumörer utgående från immunsystemet. De innefattar ca 50 olika undergrupper med vitt skilda kliniska förlopp. Målet för vårt arbete är att förbättra överlevnad och livskvalitet för patienter med maligna lymfom, också med hänsyn tid långtidseffekter av behandling, samt att förbättra metoder för diagnostik och prognostik för dessa sjukdomar. Vår grupp har sedan många år bedriviThe area of research for our group is malignant lymphomas – aiming for the improvement of the quality of life and survival of these patients. The paradigm behind most of current health care is evidence –based medicine. The evidence basis is primarily derived from clinical trials, but data can also be extracted from alternate sources such as national or regional data registries. The objective of ou
This manual has been produced by the Swedish partners within the Innovation project CONTECVET (IN30902I). The chaper “General Introduction” is produced by the British partner BCA. The lead in drafting this report was taken by Lund Institute of Technology. The project has been co-ordinated at European level by BCA and at national level by GEOCISA in Spain and CBI in Sweden.
The positive effects of foreign direct investments have encouraged several developing countries to offer preferential treatment of foreign investors. In addition to creating employment opportunities, it is argued that one of the most important contributions of foreign direct investments is the transfer of skills and knowledge i.e. spillover effects. While several studies have measured these spillo
Currently, the focus of the group’s research has been on the relationship between room acoustics and voice use in teachers. This work, supported by AFA insurance, examines the prevalence and aetiology of voice disorders in teachers in Southern Sweden, applying a blend of techniques: questionnaires, high-speed laryngeal imaging, acoustic and perceptual voice analysis, and field studies of voice use
Vi utvärderar behandlingsmetoder för svårbehandlade psykiatriska tillstånd, med målet att förbättra behandlingsresultat och klinisk praxis. KetECT-studien, som jämförde ketamin med elektrokonvulsiv terapi (ECT) vid unipolär depression, har bidragit till att ketamin nu är ett alternativ för vissa patienter. Blodprover och kognitiva data från KetECT kommer att analyseras för att identifiera biomarköWe evaluate treatment methods for refractory psychiatric conditions, aiming to improve outcomes and clinical practice. The KetECT study, which compared ketamine with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in unipolar depression, has led to ketamine being considered an alternative for certain patients. Blood samples and cognitive data from KetECT will be analyzed to identify biomarkers that can predict tr

Current EU policy calls for decreased emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) by i.e., replacing fossil fuel in the transportation sector with sustainable biofuels. To avoid indirect land use change (iLUC), the EU at the same time strives to limit the use of crops and to increase the use of residues. In this study we compare climate impact and production cost for biogas and ethanol based on wheat grai
Design has received increased attention not least of all in the business press and journals. The concept of design thinking – how to approach problems in a designerly way – is sometimes attributed as being the savior of business, making companies creative and innovative. This kind of exaggeration does more harm than good to industrial design consultancies (IDCs) and their client firms (CFs). And y
Purpose: The aim of this paper is to find out how the PMM system can be used to remain resilient to a change in the environment and so continue to provide appropriate guidance to managers in real time. Methodology: The paper is based on a qualitative research method with primarily an abductive approach to derive insight about a PMM system’s use to remain resilient to a change in the environment.
Avdelningen för konsthistoria och visuella studier forskar om äldre, modern och nutida konst, arkitektur och design utifrån historiska, samhälleliga och estetiska infallsvinklar. Konsthistoria är en humanistisk disciplin i betydelsen ett studium av det mänskliga. Det vi kallar konst är en människans spegel – äldre än historiens textbaserade källor och idag levande och mångfacetterad. Samtidigt äThe Division of Art History and Visual Studies researches old, modern and contemporary art, architecture and design, from historical, social and aesthetic perspectives. Art History is a humanistic discipline, a study of that which is human. What we call art is a mirror for the human, older than textual sources and vibrant and multifaceted today. At the same time, artworks are linked to their time
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the possible role of FCGR2A 519A>G and FCGR3A 559A>C functional polymorphisms in the genetic predisposition to susceptibility to systemic sclerosis (SSc) or clinical phenotype. METHODS: A total of 1566 patients with SSc and 2271 geographically matched controls were included in our study. We analyzed the genotype and allele frequencies of the FCGR2A 519A>G and FCGR3A 559A>
Biomass residues have been identified as potentially promising resources for production of bio-based products and fuels with low climate impacts. Unlike primary biomass such as crops, using residual biomass may avoid issues such as competition over land for food and feed production. To assess the climate impacts of products made from residual biomass, a life cycle assessment (LCA) may be used, but
