Cancer- och diabetessjukdomarnas gåtor. Ökad spridning av demokrati och mänskliga rättigheter. Global uppvärmning och mänsklig klimatpåverkan. Alla utgör de några av vår tids största utmaningar. Få, eller ingen, kan ensam lösa dessa problem. Men tillsammans kan vi göra skillnad. Många mindre gåvor gör att vi skapar förutsättningar för stora forskningsgenombrott.Nedan kan du läsa mer om forskningsu

Internationella avdelningen ger råd och stöd i internationaliseringsfrågor till fakultetsledning och institutioner. Avdelningen arbetar med internationella studentutbyten, avtalshantering och samordning av fakultetsgemensamma utbildningar på grundnivå, avancerad nivå och forskarnivå. Avdelningen har en strategisk och operativ roll i att samordna, utveckla och stärka fakultetens internationella arbThe International Office provides advice and support on internationalisation issues to faculty management and departments. They also work with international student exchange and faculty-wide international programmes and courses at first, second and third cycle levels.

Educational reforms including community-based educational initiatives maintain crucial roles in the processes of democratization in the Middle East. The patterns of reform are diverse and reflect domestic factors as well as varying linkages to global forces. Among the factors driving and defining the effects of reform we find: 1. Socio-economic development;2. Growth of the civil society;3. New modEducational reforms including community-based educational initiatives maintain crucial roles in the processes of democratization in the Middle East.

OBJECTIVE: The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) trial investigated rates of progression to diabetes among adults with prediabetes randomized to treatment with placebo, metformin, or intensive lifestyle intervention. Among women in the DPP, diabetes risk reduction with metformin was greater in women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) compared with women without GDM but with one or more

How should we respond to a criminal offence committed by a young person? It is obvious that this is a very complex question. Multiple factors play important roles: the offence itself, but also the juvenile’s background in terms of education, socialization, prior convictions, etc. Every case is unique, but the criminal legal system has to follow the principles of legal certainty and predictability.How should we respond to a criminal offence committed by a young person?

BACKGROUND: This is an open-label, single-arm, single-center pilot study using 7-Tesla in vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) to measure brain cortical glutathione concentration at baseline before and during the use of oral fumarates as a disease-modifying therapy for multiple sclerosis. The primary endpoint of this research was the change in prefrontal cortex glutathione concentr

PURPOSE: Reliable molecular diagnostic tools are still unavailable for making informed treatment decisions and monitoring the response in patients with castration resistant prostate cancer. We evaluated the significance of whole blood circulating androgen receptor transcripts of full length (AR-FL) and splice variants (AR-V1, AR-V3 and AR-V7) as biomarkers of abiraterone acetate treatment resistan

High concentrations of salts in agricultural soils are an environmental problem that has plagued human civilization from its very beginning. Already the earliest civilizations in ancient Mesopotamia struggled with increasing concentrations of salt on irrigated fields. Also in modern times, salinization of soils, particularly of agricultural soils is still a problem restricting agricultural productSoil salinization is a pressing agricultural problem in many areas of the world, particularly in areas heavily reliant on irrigation agriculture. While the negative effects of salinity on crop plants have been widely studied, its effects on soil microorganisms have received less attention, and the impact of soil salinity on both microbial community structure and functioning is not well understood.

The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) was designed in accordance with the framework protocol approach, which comprises treaty bodies such as Conferences of the Parties (COP) and compliance mechanisms and sets out broad standards to be made more precise through the making of protocols.

The objective of this study was to correlate the relative transcription of Listeria monocytogenes (strains C5, 6179) stress- (gad2, sigB) and virulence- (prfA) associated genes following habituation at twenty-five pH (4.8, 5.0, 5.2, 5.5, 6.4) and NaCl (2, 4, 6, 8, 10% w/v) combinations at 7 °C, with the survival against subsequent exposure to severe acid stress (pH 2.0 at 37 °C). Our findings poin

We found that engagement of beta 2 integrins on human neutrophils increased the levels of GTP-bound Rap1 and Rap2. Also, the activation of Rap1 was blocked by PP1, SU6656, LY294002, GF109203X, or BAPTA-AM, which indicates that the downstream signaling events in Rap1 activation involve Src tyrosine kinases, phosphoinositide 3-kinase, protein kinase C, and release of calcium. Surprisingly, the beta

Purpose: The quality of the study design and data reporting in human trials dealing with the inter-individual variability in response to the consumption of plant bioactives is, in general, low. There is a lack of recommendations supporting the scientific community on this topic. This study aimed at developing a quality index to assist the assessment of the reporting quality of intervention trials

Genetic susceptibility to insulin resistance is associated with lower adiposity in adults. Insulin resistance, and therefore adiposity, may alter sensitivity to Growth Hormone (GH). We aimed to determine the relationship between adiposity, genetic susceptibility to insulin resistance or insulin secretion, and response to GH treatment in short children born small for gestational age (SGA).

The 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011 triggered not only giant tsunami waves, but also caused significant land subsidence followed by land rise in the Sendai Coastal Plain areas. These impacts resulted in severe damages to the coastal infrastructure and induced coastal morphology changes along Japan's northeast coast. It was observed that the maximum downward deformation in the Se

Climate warming is driving changes in species distribution, but habitat characteristics can interact with warming temperatures to affect populations in unexpected ways. We investigated wintering waterbird responses to climate warming depending on habitat characteristics, with a focus on the northern boundary of their non-breeding distributions where winter climatic conditions are more extreme.
