The recent COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need of non-pharmaceutical interventions in the first stages of a pandemic. Among these, lockdown policies proved unavoidable yet extremely costly from an economic perspective. To better understand the tradeoffs between economic and epidemic costs of lockdown interventions, we here focus on a simple SIR epidemic model and study lockdowns as solutions to
It is generally considered that the brackish Baltic Sea has relatively low biodiversity levels of both fish and invertebrate fauna, compared to the more saline waters of Kattegat and Skagerrak on the Swedish west coast. However, a trend has been noticed, showing higher biodiversity and biomass levels of Fucus-associated fauna on the east coast of Scania, i.e. within the Baltic Sea, compared to the

An insight into the proteome status of today is presented, covering aspects of market values, new scientific literature sources, new technology initiatives and future developments. The authors give a personal view of the importance and the expected progress of microtechnology in proteome research. The background to some of the fundamental analytical technologies where for example, chromatography h

Three potential filter materials, granular activated carbon, bone meal and iron fines, were evaluated for treatment of heavy metal contaminated landfill leachate. All materials could sorb some metals to a high extent; more than 90 % of some metals were removed. However, all filters suffered from the drawback of releasing unwanted substances. Geochemical modelling was used to elucidate sorption mec

Although entrepreneurship education is promoted through an active learning approach, critical concerns regarding how to educate potential entrepreneurs has increased. To remedy this, we pose the question: “Who is the student entrepreneur?” Building on conceptual work from developmental psychology, expertise research, pedagogy, and andragogy, we problematize based on the key characteristics of the
This master thesis examines if the German welfare state is following the social investment strategy in relation to one of its core components, the dual earner family model. The thesis considers four, interrelated policy areas that promote the dual earner family. Regarding the appropriate design of parental leave, formal childcare services, part-time employment regulation and the taxation of spouse
LTRs of endogenous retroviruses are known to affect expression of several human genes, typically as a relatively minor alternative promoter. Here, we report that an endogenous retrovirus LTR acts as one of at least two alternative promoters for the human beta1,3-galactosyltransferase 5 gene, involved in type 1 Lewis antigen synthesis, and show that the LTR promoter is most active in the gastrointe
The objective of this paper is to examine the long-run relationship between CO2 emissions, economic output (GDP), and energy consumption in the US during the period 1960-2015. Energy consumption is investigated in its aggregated and disaggregated form i.e. Fossil Fuel, Nuclear, and Renewable energy to elicit a more precise diagnosis of the emission-energy-GDP nexus. The paper contributes to existi
Particles, climate change, and health have thought-provoking interactions. Air pollution is one of the largest environmental problems concerning human health. On the other hand, aerosol particles can have a cooling effect on climate and a reduction of those emissions may result in an increased temperature globally, which in turn may have negative health effects. The objective of this work was to i
