This project aims to develop incretin therapy as a glucose-reducing strategy in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Its particular focus is to understand the mechanisms of incretin therapy and to optimize its clinical positioning. This mission is achieved by an interdisciplinary approach with complementary studies in subjects with T2D, healthy volunteers and experimental animals.

Enheten för forskningsdata (Research Data Office, RDO) stöttar forskare vid Lunds universitet i hela forskningsprocessen genom att ge vägledning till rätt stöd,verktyg och tjänster för hantering av forskningsdata. Enheten har en samordnande roll och ska verka för att stärka kvaliteten och genomslaget i forskningen, exempelvis genom att stötta forskare att göra data mer tillgänglig, säker och hållbLund University Research Data Office (LU RDO) supports researchers at Lund University throughout the research process by providing guidance on the right support, tools and services for managing research data. The office has a coordinating role and will work to strengthen the quality and impact of research, for example by supporting researchers to make data more accessible, secure and sustainable,

BACKGROUND: The effectiveness of mammography screening for women ages 40 to 49 years still is questioned, and few studies of the effectiveness of service screening for this age group have been conducted. METHODS: Breast cancer mortality was compared between women who were invited to service screening at ages 40 to 49 years (study group) and women in the same age group who were not invited during 1

If one were to study Management Consultancy, they could be spoilt for choices on what to research on. Bombarded by several images of imperviousness, merky business practices , shady deals, compromise, self service, competitive morality and many other forms of euphemisms, the researchers, would see these notions, appear loud and resplendent, especially when, ‘seen through’ client consultant relatio

Operation med konstgjorda ledproteser i höft och knä ger generellt mycket lyckade resultat. Fortfarande förekommer dock lossning och slitage av komponenterna som ett problem, och alla patienter blir inte fullt nöjda. I ett flertal forskningsprojekt studerar vi faktorer av betydelse för fixation och funktion av proteskomponenterna. Vi utvärderar hur man optimerar de biomekaniska ledförhållandena viTotal joint replacements, both in the hip and knee, are generally very successful operations. Still, however, component loosening as well as wear remains a problem, and all patients are not fully satisfied with their new joint. In a number of ongoing investigations, we are studying different factors involved in the fixation and function of the prosthesis components. We are exploring how to optimiz

The state authorities in Germany used to fund public sector research without controlling the performance of the research units. This has changed during past decade, where the dominant mechanism by which formerly unconditional state funds are allocated nowadays is indicator-based performance measurement. The indicator sets used to measure the research-related performance in the German public scienc

This thesis concerns the successive use of fixed-term contracts under Clause 5 of the Framework Agreement in the sector of sports and whether such usage provides protection from dismissal for pregnant workers. This was done by using a legal dogmatic method in the field of EU law. The paper starts with identifying the role of sports in EU labour law. It was held that sports have a special standing

We regard the classic Thue–Morse diffraction measure as an equilibrium measure for a potential function with a logarithmic singularity over the doubling map. Our focus is on unusually fast scaling of the Birkhoff sums (superlinear) and of the local measure decay (superpolynomial). For several scaling functions, we show that points with this behavior are abundant in the sense of full Hausdorff dime

Forskningen fokuserar på prekonceptionell hälsa, psykisk ohälsa, förlossningsrädsla, födande och förebyggande av bristningar, postpartumvård och amning samt pedagogik inom barnmorskeprogrammet. Våra forskningsfrågor utgår från barnmorskans profession med fokus på vården före, i samband med och efter barnafödande. Barnmorskans verksamhetsområde innehåller hälsofrämjande arbete och prevention genoThe research in our group focuses on pre-conception care, mental health, fear of birth, the birth process, prevention of perineal tears, post-partum care and breastfeeding. Pedagogical aspects within midwifery training are also studied. Our research questions stem from the midwifery profession, focusing on care provide before, during and after pregnancy. Midwifery encompasses health promotion be
