4MOST Consortium Survey 2: The Milky Way Halo High-Resolution Survey
We will study the formation history of the Milky Way, and the earliest phases of its chemical enrichment, with a sample of more than 1.5 million stars at high galactic latitude. Elemental abundances of up to 20 elements with a precision of better than 0.2 dex will be derived for these stars. The sample will include members of kinematically coherent substructures, which we will associate with their
4MOST Survey Strategy Plan
The current status of and motivation for the 4MOST survey strategy, as developed by the Consortium science team, are presented here. Key elements of the strategy are described, such as sky coverage, number of visits and total exposure times in different parts of the sky, and how to deal with different observing conditions. The task of organising the strategy is not simple, with many different surv
Transport av stallgödsel – lärdomar från Nederländerna och Danmark
I det moderna lantbruket blir gårdarna allt större och mer specialiserade. En följd kan bli överskott av stallgödsel i områden med mycket djur, vilket ökar risken för näringsläckage. Samtidigt är stallgödsel en värdefull resurs som tillför näringsämnen till marken och gör den bördig. Skulle transporter av stallgödsel till områden med växtodling kunna bidra till att minska näringsläckaget i djurtät
Seasonal influenza vaccine effectiveness against laboratory-confirmed influenza in 2015-2016 : A hospital-based test-negative case-control study in Lithuania
Objective A case-control study was conducted to assess seasonal influenza vaccine effectiveness (SIVE) during the 2015-2016 influenza season. Methods A study was performed in three departments in Lithuania between 1 December 2015 and 1 May 2016. Data on demographic and clinical characteristics including influenza vaccination status were collected from the patients recommended to receive the season
Växtvärldens uppkomst och utveckling
Tre forskare med olika specialinriktningar skildrar hur växternas förfäder för länge sedan uppstod genom att bakterier och andra enkla mikroskopiska varelser slog sig samman till en mer komplicerad organism. Från ett liv i vatten tog föregångarna till dagens växter steget upp på land. De förändrade vår planet på många sätt, och gjorde det möjligt för oss djur och människor att leva här. Växterna p
Effectiveness of A(H1N1)pdm09 Influenza Vaccine in Adults Recommended for Annual Influenza Vaccination
Introduction:Because of variability in published A(H1N1)pdm09 influenza vaccine effectiveness estimates, we conducted a study in the adults belonging to the risk groups to assess the A(H1N1)pdm09 MF59-adjuvanted influenza vaccine effectiveness.Methods:VE against influenza and/or pneumonia was assessed in the cohort study (n>25000), and vaccine effectiveness against laboratory-confirmed A(H1N1)pdm0
Comparatively low attendance during Human Papillomavirus catch-up vaccination among teenage girls in the Netherlands : Insights from a behavioral survey among parents
Background: The Dutch Human Papillomavirus (HPV) catch-up vaccination program in 2009 appeared less successful than expected. We aimed to identify the most important determinants of refusing the vaccination. Methods: Two thousand parents of girls born in 1996 targeted for HPV vaccination received an invitation letter to participate in a questionnaire study. Two study groups were defined: the first
2015/16 seasonal vaccine effectiveness against hospitalisation with influenza a(H1N1)pdm09 and B among elderly people in Europe : Results from the I-MOVE+ project
We conducted a multicentre test-negative case–control study in 27 hospitals of 11 European countries to measure 2015/16 influenza vaccine effectiveness (IVE) against hospitalised influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and B among people aged ≥ 65 years. Patients swabbed within 7 days after onset of symptoms compatible with severe acute respiratory infection were included. Information on demographics, vaccination
Predictors of seasonal influenza vaccination among healthcare workers in hospitals : A descriptive meta-analysis
Objective: Vaccinating healthcare workers (HCWs) against influenza is one of the most important methods of decreasing influenza transmission among at-risk patients in healthcare facilities. However, despite recommendations, the rate of uptake of influenza vaccine among HCWs remains low. The objective of this metaanalysis was to determine the most important predictors of seasonal influenza vaccine
Effectiveness of the Q fever vaccine : A meta-analysis
In the Netherlands, the number of notified human Q fever cases showed a steep increase over the last three years and is not expected to disappear in the next few years. Since vaccination might be an option to prevent Q fever cases in the general population, evidence is needed about its effectiveness. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to determine the evidence base for effectiveness for Q feve
Seasonal influenza vaccine effectiveness against influenza in 2012-2013 : A hospital-based case-control study in Lithuania
Background: Due to scarce information on seasonal influenza vaccine effectiveness (SIVE) against severe clinical influenza outcomes in risk populations, we conducted a case-control study to assess its effects against laboratory-confirmed influenza in hospitalized patients during the 2012-2013 influenza season. Methods: We conducted a test-negative case-control study among ≥18 years old patients wi
4MOST Scientific Operations
The 4MOST instrument is a multi-object spectrograph that will address Galactic and extragalactic science cases simultaneously by observing targets from a large number of different surveys within each science exposure. This parallel mode of operation and the survey nature of 4MOST require some distinct 4MOST- specific operational features within the overall operations model of ESO. The main feature

A novel, robust method for quantification of multiple kynurenine pathway metabolites in the cerebrospinal fluid
Aim: Kynurenine metabolites are potential modulators of psychiatric disease. We aimed to develop a highly sensitive biochemical analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) tryptophan (TRP) metabolites, to investigate the stability of metabolites and to confirm our previous findings of aberrant CSF quinolinic acid (QUIN) and picolinic acid (PIC) in suicide attempters using this method. Methodology &
The Gaia -ESO Survey : Detection and characterisation of single-line spectroscopic binaries
Context: Multiple stellar systems play a fundamental role in the formation and evolution of stellar populations in galaxies. Recent and ongoing large ground-based multi-object spectroscopic surveys significantly increase the sample of spectroscopic binaries (SBs) allowing analyses of their statistical properties. Aims: We investigate the repeated spectral observations of the Gaia-ESO Survey intern
Democratising the experience of learning to play a musical instrument
The purpose of this presentation/paper is to contribute to a deeper understanding of the infinite number of experiences of what it is to learn to play a musical instrument. By providing a theoretical platform to visualise and discuss these experiences, the aim is further to support the posing of questions regarding the future of teaching and learning music across all ages, genres and levels of exp
