We conducted a first pilot study on healthy women living in two countries with different dietary habits, Granada in the south of Spain and Malmo in the south of Sweden, in order to compare their levels of plasma phospholipid fatty acids, and to examine the relationship between the differences in food consumption. This study is part of a pilot study which is nested in the European Prospective Inves

An overview of current status and prospects of the development of quantum computer hardware based on inorganic crystals doped with rare-earth ions are presented. Major parts of the experimental work in this area have been done in two places, Canberra, Australia and Lund, Sweden, and the present description follows more closely the Lund work. Techniques will be described that include optimal filter

Soils provide the foundation for human well-being but are increasingly degrading from land use change or types of intensive land use like agriculture. In Europe, soil natural capital is degrading over time and space because of compaction, erosion, and the loss of organic matter. This trend diminishes the soil’s ability to sustain a flow of ecosystem services, which are valuable to human well-being

Education for sustainability (EfS) has been regarded a promising approach for solving sustainability challenges. Results have been unsatisfying due to a knowledge-dissemination focus in the formal sector. Reasons are economic and political interests shaping formal education. Therefore, hopes are placed in the non-formal sector to close this knowledge-to-action gap. In this case study, I aim to und

Sedan 2015 har Sverige en uttalat feministisk utrikespolitik, med målet att ett genusperspektiv ska genomsyra all politisk verksamhet.

Genom att granska den statliga myndighet som ansvarar för beslut om krigsmateriel

Forskning visar att när patienter upplever att de blir dåligt bemötta av hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal drabbas patienternas möjligheter att vara delaktiga i sin egen vård. Då är det viktigt att det finns någonstans patienterna kan vända sig och klaga.

Att arbetsmarknaden är i ständig förändring råder det ingen tvekan om. Produktionen av både tjänster och varor efterfrågar nya former för förvärvande av arbetsprestationer. Mer eller mindre nya grepp inom företagsvärlden som till exempel utkontraktering och projektanställningar vittnar om detta. Förändringarna gör att gränsdragningen mellan att vara arbetstagare och uppdragstagare inte kan förväntThe labour market is constantly changing.

Syftet med vår uppsats är att utifrån svenska mindre aktiebolags, revisorers och expertorgans perspektiv redogöra för om förslagen i propositionen ”Förenklade redovisningsregler m.m.” och BFNs ”Allmänna råd för K2 - mindre aktiebolag” överensstämmer med vad de anser behöver förenklas. Syftet är också att redogöra för vilken funktion redovisningen har för de mindre aktiebolagen och vilka konsekvens

Syftet med examensarbetet är att analysera om BFN stötte på problem vid upparbetningen, samt om vår expert och redovisningsekonomerna tror samma problem kommer att uppstå vid tillämpningen. Ändamålet är även att beskriva varför dessa kommer att bli problematiska och om andra problem kommer att uppstå. I teorin beskrivs gällande regelverk och kommande K2-regelverket för belysta problemområden samt
