This seminar series is organized by the three nanoscience hubs located in the Copenhagen-Lund area. The aim is to to increase awareness about our mutual capabilities and to inspire collaborations. Below, please find the talk abstracts and short bio of the speakers on the Photoluminescence topic. Within a radius of just 25 km, the Copenhagen-Lund region features three strong hubs for nanoscience, w

Organisations increasingly dominate our lives in today’s modern society, as they have a significant influence on the way we work, interact, understand, and live our lives. We believe that it is imperative to conduct interpretive and critical research in order to contribute with up-close and in-depth interrogations of organisations, to challenge them and to change them for the better. Our research

The apparent realities of the communist dystopia lead to specific expectations from the transition to capitalism: the replacement of communism should cause not only a boon in human happiness, but also a resurgence of social life. Two types of observations in the past 20 years challenge these expectations. First, people from former-communist countries are often nostalgic and pessimistic when discus

textcopyright 2017 John Wiley Sons Ltd. The effective population size (N e ) is a central factor in determining maintenance of genetic variation. The neutral theory predicts that loss of variation depends on N e , with less genetic drift in larger populations. We monitored genetic drift in 42 Drosophila melanogaster populations of different adult census population sizes (10, 50 or 500) using poole

Effective societal responses to rapid climate change in the Arctic rely on an accurate representation of region-specific ecosystem properties and processes. However, this is limited by the scarcity and patchy distribution of field measurements. Here, we use a comprehensive, geo-referenced database of primary field measurements in 1,840 published studies across the Arctic to identify statistically

Lindqvist D, Janelidze S, Erhardt S, Träskman-Bendz L, Engström G, Brundin L. CSF biomarkers in suicide attempters - a principal component analysis. Objective: The objective of the present study was to identify biological patterns (factors) among 20 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers in suicide attempters and subsequently analyse their association with suicidal behaviour. Method: We measured kyn

Smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) is an asymptomatic precursor state of multiple myeloma (MM). Recently, MM was redefined to include biomarkers predicting a high risk of progression from SMM, thus necessitating a redefinition of SMM and its risk stratification. We assembled a large cohort of SMM patients meeting the revised IMWG criteria to develop a new risk stratification system. We included 199

The principal inhibitor of fast charging lithium ion cells is the graphite negative electrode, where favorable conditions for lithium plating occur at high charge rates, causing accelerated degradation and safety concerns. The local response of graphite, both at the electrode and particle level, when exposed to fast charging conditions of around 6C is not well understood. Consequently, the conditi

Background and purpose: Biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy is commonly treated with salvage radiotherapy (SRT). In this prospective observational study we investigated the PSA decay rate, determined by predefined serial PSA measurements during SRT, as a predictor for treatment outcome.Materials and methods: Between 2013 and 2016, 214 patients were included in the study. The prescribed dose

Apolipoprotein M (apoM) participates in both high-density lipoprotein and cholesterol metabolism. Little is known about how apoM affects lipid composition of the liver and serum. In this study, we systemically investigated the effects of apoM on liver and plasma lipidomes and how apoM participates in lipid cycling, via apoM knockout in mice and the human SMMC-7721 cell line. We used integrated mas

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett poröst material är ett material med hålrum fyllda av gas eller vätska. Transport av molekyler genom ett poröst material beror på materialets struktur och har betydelse för områden som oljeutvinning, katalytisk avgasrening och blöjors uppsugningsförmåga. Porösa material vars struktur förändras beroende på vattenhalt är svåra att studera eftersom många av de traditioProton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was used to study the self-diffusion of water in porous systems that respond to a change in water content in order to elucidate the porous structure and the properties of the confined water. In the carbohydrate systems cellulose fibers and starch granules, water is free to move throughout the porous objects, albeit with a rate reduced from the value of the

Open Access definieras som fri, omedelbar, permanent tillgång till vetenskapligt material i fulltext. Redan idag använder sig universiteten av Open Access, och en stor andel forskare anger att de har kännedom om OA. Statistiska Centralbyrån (SCB) har gjort uppskattningen att nära 75% av alla pengar som investeras i svensk forskning kommer från privata företag. Trots detta verkar inte Open Access-dOpen Access (OA) is defined as the free, online, immediate, permanent access to scientific and scholarly material in full-text. Open Access practices have reached the universities and now nearly all university researchers report knowledge of OA. Statistics Sweden (SCB) has estimated that 75% of all money invested in research activities in Sweden is done by private companies. In spite of this, the

Excessive neutrophil activation is a major component in septic lung injury. Neutrophil-derived DNA may form extracellular traps in response to bacterial invasions. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential role of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in septic lung injury. Male C57BL/6 mice were treated with rhDNAse (5 mg/kg) after cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Extracellu

Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are characterized by deregulated proliferation. Ki-67 is a cell cycle antigen which may be elevated in proliferative states. We analysed Ki-67 expression in fixed and embedded tissues from STS in order to examine associations between proliferation, primary tumour characteristics, and metastasis. One hundred and eighty-two adult patients with trunk wall or extremity STS w

The efficacy and safety of an advanced category recombinant antihaemophilic factor produced by a plasma- and albumin-free method (rAHF-PFM) was studied in 111 previously treated subjects with haemophilia A. The study comprised a randomized, double-blinded, crossover pharmacokinetic comparison of rAHF-PFM and RECOMBINATE rAHF (R-FVIII); prophylaxis (three to four times per week with 25-40 IU kg(-1)

With grand canonical simulations invoking a configurationally weighted scheme, we have calculated interactions between charged surfaces immersed in a polyelectrolyte, solution. In contrast to previous simulations of such systems, we have imposed full equilibrium conditions (i.e., we have included diffusive equilibrium with a bulk solution). This has a profound impact on the resulting interactions:

Pig meat shows natural variations in the concentrations of precursors of heterocyclic amines (HCAs), which may affect formation of HCAs in cooked pig meat. To study this, 26 pigs with an inherent genetic variation (carriers and noncarriers of the RN- allele) were subjected to different feeding regimes (conventional feed compared with feed composed according to organic standards). In addition, the

We investigated whether exposure to heavy metal pollution affected the immune function of individuals in a free living population of a small insectivorous passerine bird, the pied flycatcher Ficedula hypoleuca. We measured humoral immune responses in two study areas: a polluted area in the vicinity of a copper smelter and a control area far from the smelter. Plasma corticosterone level and blood h
