Profilområdet utvecklar tvärvetenskapliga och gränsöverskridande hälsofrämjande strategier och metoder för proaktivt åldrande. Området fokuserar särskilt på kognitiv och muskuloskeletal hälsa som förutsättningar för aktivitet och delaktighet. Profilområdet ska utveckla metoder för att tidigt identifiera individer och grupper i riskzonen för ohälsa eller annan utsatthet med hjälp av ekonomiska, socThe profile area develops transdisciplinary health promotive strategies for proactive ageing. It focuses particularly on cognitive functions and musculoskeletal health as prerequisites for activity and participation. The profile area will develop methods for early identification of individuals and groups at risk of poor health or other vulnerabilities, using economic, social as well as biological

The laboratory consists of a XenX x-ray irradiator (XStrahl) for experimental radiobiology, with supporting equipment for cell culture applications, such as laminar flow cabinets, CO2 incubators, and a hypoxia workstation. The XenX unit is designed as a radiotherapy machine in miniature. It consists of a 225 kV x-ray source, mounted on a rotatable gantry allowing irradiation of specimens from all The laboratory consists of a XenX x-ray irradiator (XStrahl) for experimental radiobiology, with supporting equipment for cell culture applications, such as laminar flow cabinets, CO2 incubators, and a hypoxia workstation.

Forskare inom profilområdet fokuserar på ekosystembaserade sätt att hantera förlust av biologisk mångfald och klimatförändringar, och hur de sammanflätade kriserna kan kopplas till hållbar samhällsutveckling.

För att de naturbaserade lösningarna ska kunna accepteras och implementeras och leda till sociala och politiska förändringar krävs också perspektiv som kan identifiera synergier, rättvisThe profile area focuses on ecosystem-based approaches to handle biodiversity loss and climate change, and how the intertwined crises can be linked to sustainable societal development.

For nature-based solutions to be accepted and adopted – leading to social and political change – they need perspectives that can identify synergies, address equity issues, and consider historical and contempora

Målgruppen för vår forskning är vuxna med begränsningar i delaktighet och vardagsliv på grund av sjukdom, skada eller ålder. Forskningen baseras på teorier och modeller hämtade bland annat ur arbetsterapi och aktivitetsvetenskap, gerontologi, rehabilitering, hälsoekonomi, utvärdering och implementeringsforskning. Forskargruppen är knuten till Centre for Ageing and Supportive Environments, CAThe target group of our research is adults with limitations in participation and everyday life due to illness, injury or age. Our research is based on theories and models derived mainly within occupational therapy and occupational science, gerontology, rehabilitation, health economics, evaluation and implementation research. The research group is linked to the Centre for Ageing and Supportive

LTH:s profilområde Livsmedel och bioteknik fokuserar på hållbar mat och biobaserade processer och produkter. Området arbetar för ett samhälle med minimalt miljöavtryck och noll utsläpp av växthusgaser, vilket resulterar i ett verkligt hållbart och cirkulärt samhälle.LTH Profile Area Food and Bio focus on sustainable, healthy, accessible food and bio-based processes and products. The area is working for a society with minimal environmental footprint and zero emission of greenhouse gases, resulting in a truly sustainable and circular society.

Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative joint disease, and a rapidly growing cause of musculoskeletal disability, chronic pain, and reduced quality of life in an ageing European population. Our aims are to gain novel insights into osteoarthritis - its etiology, occurrence, natural history, treatments, prediction, disease monitoring, and disease burden - to allow for better care, decision making, Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative joint disease, and a rapidly growing cause of musculoskeletal disability, chronic pain, and reduced quality of life in an ageing European population.

This article presents an empirical study, which analyzes the characteristics of those social housing projects implemented in the medium-sized city of Liberia, in Costa Rica, and their relationship to the territorial distribution of inequality and urban poverty. The dynamic economic growth of the province of Guanacaste and in particular of its capital, the city of Liberia, is widely recognized in C

MERGE (ModElling the Regional and Global Earth system) står för modellering av jordens klimatsystem, med fokus på vegetation och terrestra ekosystem. Målet för den nationella strategiska plattformen är att öka kunskapen om klimatet med speciellt fokus på hur atmosfär, markyta, vegetation och ekosystem samverkar. Verksamheten omfattar avancerad forskning, disciplinär och tvärvetenskaplig forskarutbMERGE is a Strategic Research Area working with modelling the regional and global Climate System with focus on the interactions between the climate and the terrestrial biosphere. MERGE brings together more than 150 researchers collaborating across five Swedish universities - Lund University, Chalmers, University of Gothenburg, KTH and SMHI. The cutting-edge research environment are experts on the
