Epilepsi är den vanligaste neurologiska sjukdomen efter stroke och huvudvärk, ca 60 000 personer har aktiv epilepsi i Sverige. Vi har idag tillgång till en rad mycket effektiva läkemedel, bara sedan 1989 har åtta nya epilepsimediciner registrerats.

Since Abney (1987), generative syntax has invested much interest in the structure of the Noun Phrase, producing numerous theoretical as well as descriptive studies. Within the field of Scandinavian Noun Phrase studies, Delsing (1993) was a groundbreaking work that has since been followed up by several important studies, including Vangsnes et al. (2003) and Julien (2005). This field of inquiry is e

Impingement and forced convection are preferable methods for cooling gas turbine components. However, influences of various design parameters like crossflow and surface enlargements (like ribs) are not well understood. Thus there is a request for reliable and cost effective computational prediction methods, due to the experimental difficulties. such methods could be based on the numerical solution

In this study, we explored the implications of a groundwater development project on women's workload and their experience of marital violence in a Bangladesh village. We believe that the project facilitated irrigation water but also that it resulted in seasonal domestic water shortages. Men used deep motorized pumps for irrigation, and women used shallow handpumps for domestic purposes. Many handp

Despite progress in gender equality, cultural, economic, and structural factors continue to influence parental work patterns across European countries. Using survey data from the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP),

In the post-World War II era, international lawyers have occupied the front seat in the study of international organisations (IOs). During the past decade, this disciplinary hierarchy has grown to feel increasingly unsatisfying. This chapter offers an anthropological take on the study of IOs building both on the past decade of anthropological work and my ethnography at the UN Human Rights Committe

Multi-Key Homomorphic Signatures (MK-HS) enable clients in a system to sign and upload messages to an untrusted server. At any later point in time, the server can perform a computation C on data provided by t different clients, and return the output y and a short signature σC,y vouching for the correctness of y as the output of the function C on the signed data. Interestingly, MK-HS enable verifie

Frivilligarbete har efter ett par avgöranden i EU-domstolen kommit under särskild belysning också av Parlamentet. Rättspraxis har skjutit frivilligarbete allt närmare definitionerna av anställning och förvärvsarbete, i vart fall avseende vissa bestämmelser. Artikeln konstaterar att frivilligarbete är ett betydande del av det svenska civilsamhället - exempelvis organiseras i princip all sjöräddning
