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,

Hudcancer, inklusive malignt melanom, keratinocytcancer (tidigare icke-melanomhudcancer) och också mer sällsynta hudcancerdiagnoser ökar snabbt i de flesta ljushyade populationer. En hudcancerdiagnos ger inte bara inverkan på hälsoekonomiska mätvärden utan också främst på individens livskvalitet. I vår forskargrupp fokuserar vi på kliniskt baserad och registerbaserad hudcancerforskning men även tiSkin cancers, including malignant melanoma, keratinocyte cancer (formerly non- melanoma skin cancer) and also more rare skin cancers are increasing rapidly in most fair-skinned populations. A skin cancer diagnosis has impact not only on health economics but also on the quality of life of the individual. In our research group we focus on clinical skin cancer research as well as on translational ski
Pufendorfinstitutet är ett tvärvetenskapligt institut med syfte att stimulera till samarbete mellan forskare från olika discipliner inom Lunds universitet. I "Teman" och" Advanced Study Groups" ges forskare från alla universitetets fakulteter möjlighet att tillsammans utforska vetenskapliga problem .The Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies is an interdisciplinary institute with the aim to stimulate collaboration between researchers from different disciplines within Lund University. In "Themes" and "Advanced Study Groups", researchers from all faculties of the university are given the opportunity to jointly explore scientific issues.
Background: Although research shows that social interaction is related to occupational engagement among adults with mental illness of all ages, this relationship is underexplored among older mental health service users. Factors suggested as relevant for such relationships are, for example, social network characteristics, anxiety/depression, physical problems, and gender. Aim: This study aimed to e
The focus of this master’s thesis was aimed at E.ON’s electricity saving project, 100koll, in collaboration with IT-consulting firm Data Ductus.The 100koll users demand high availability, which creates a complex underlaying system-infrastructure. The processes of deploying and preparing new releases to the system is presently done manually. Data Ductus is requesting an investigation on whether or
In order to move away from fossil fuels many governments and industries are focusing their new investments in electricity and alternative fuels such as green hydrogen from electrolyzers using renewable electricity. High investment costs and electricity costs are a hindrance for the future development of a hydrogen economy which can utilize an increasing intermittent power generation. The aim of th
Forskningen på avdelningen är mångsidig och länkas samman genom seminariet i medierad kultur och information. Forskningen genomsyras av en kritisk analys av digitaliseringen av kultur och samhälle som inkluderar forskningsteman såsom kulturarvsinstitutioner, informationens infrastruktur, kulturpolitik, förlag, bokmarknad, konsumtion och digitalt vardagsliv, läsning, lyssning och förändrade litteraThe research conducted at the division is multifaceted and include several disciplines, all of which get regularly presented at our joint seminar “Mediated Culture and Information. A critical analytical perspective on the digitalization of culture and society permeates our research, which focuses on themes such as cultural heritage institutions, infrastructures of information, cultural policy and
Background: Evidence-based guidelines are needed for effective delivery of home oxygen therapy to appropriate patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and interstitial lung disease (ILD). Methods: The multidisciplinary panel created six research questions using a modified Delphi approach. A systematic review of the literature was completed, and the Grading of Recommendations Asse
Gruppens huvudsakliga forskningsområde är systemisk behandling av spridd cancersjukdom med hjälp av terapeutiska radionuklider. För att optimera dosleveransen till tumörceller konjugeras radionukliderna till målsökande molekyler, t.ex. antikroppar, som söker sig till cancerspecifika antigen. Olika behandlingsstrategier utvärderas prekliniskt för bästa effektivitet. Multimodala bildgivande system The main research area of the group is systemic treatment of metastasized cancer using therapeutic radionuclides. To optimize dose delivery to tumor cells, radionuclides are conjugated to tracer molecules, e.g. antibodies or antibody fragments, targeting cancer-specific epitopes. Preclinical evaluation of treatment combinations and strategies aim to improve treatment efficacy. Multimodality imagin
Centrum för ekonomisk demografi består av ett trettiotal medarbetare inom ekonomisk historia, nationalekonomi, samhällsmedicin, social arbete och statistik som i sin forskning tar upp ekonomiska samhällsfrågor med koppling till demografi ur ett historiskt och internationellt perspektiv. 2006 beviljades centret ett av de 20 s.k. Linnéstöd som ingår i Vetenskapsrådets nya satsning på långsiktig finaThe Centre for Economic Demography consists of more than thirty collaborators in economic history, economics, social medicine, social work and statistics that in their research focus on socioeconomic issues from a historical and international demographic perspective. In 2006 the Centre was awarded one of the so-called Linnaeus grants that form part of the Swedish Research Councils new emphasis on
In TSP with neighborhoods (TSPN) we are given a collec-tion X of k polygonal regions, called neighborhoods, with totally n ver-tices, and we seek the shortest tour that visits each neighborhood. TheEuclidean TSP is a special case of the TSPN problem, so TSPN is alsoNP-hard. In this paper we present a simple and fast algorithm that, givena start point, computes a TSPN tour of length O(log k) times
Flow-ELISA measurements of the monoclonal antibody concentration in cultivation broth containing murine hybriboma cells were carried out using a small expanded-bed column (0.5×2.5 cm) charged with protein A. A new specialised pellicular agarose/stainless steel matrix designed for high flow rates with fast mass transport properties was used. Special care was taken to get an efficient flow dist
