Most patients with mycosis fungoides, a rare form of lymphoma, live for years with a relatively mild disease. But in some cases it develops into a more serious condition. Angelica Johansson has identified biological changes that may help explain why the disease progresses in about a quarter of patients. Her work also shows that patients report unexpectedly high quality despite living with a chroni

Föreställningen om att äldre förr i tiden levde tryggt i storfamiljer och försörjdes av sina barn är en romantiserad överdrift. I sin doktorsavhandling i ekonomisk historia visar Anton Svensson hur äldre hushåll i 1800-talets Stockholm i verkligheten tvingades navigera en oskyddad tillvaro, där skillnaden i levnadsstandard var djupt ojämlik. I dagens debatt kontrasteras ofta det moderna välfärdssa

Anton Svensson from Economic History demonstrates how elderly households in 19th-century Stockholm were in reality forced to navigate a vulnerable existence, where differences in living standards were deeply unequal. In today's debate, the modern welf
