Background: Policy implications are seldom more than a paragraph or two at the end of empirical papers. The aim was therefore to explore social determinants of mental health across life through qualitative analysis of meta-synthesis of empirical publications from a 27-year school-leaver cohort. From the actionable empirical results, we suggest policies for primary prevention aimed at equitable men
The gasification of biomass is a promising route to increase the share of renewable sources in the energy mix. Besides having an overall higher thermal efficiency than combustion, it also offers the possibility of producing gaseous and liquid biofuels that can be used in the transport sector. The use of biomass gasification for energy purposes can help lower the net emissions of greenhouse gases,
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
Sweden's ATMP ecosystem is rapidly expanding, solidifying its place as a key player in Europe. Currently ranking among the top three countries among the EU9 for identified therapeutic ATMP companies, Sweden's strategic investments are further reinforcing its leadership (MSC 2020). This includes ongoing initiatives to establish industrial-scale ATMP manufacturing capabilities, enhancing the country

The replacement of fossil fuels by renewable fuels such as biogas and biohydrogen will require efficient and economically competitive process technologies together with new kinds of biomass. A two-stage system for biogas production has several advantages over the widely used one-stage continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). However, it has not yet been widely implemented on a large scale. Biohydro
Vi är Avdelningen för Datorseende och Maskininlärning (Math-CVML) vid Matematikcentrum, Lunds Tekniska Högskola. Vi bedriver forskning och undervisning i datorseende och maskininlärning i flera olika former. Huvudsyftet med vår forskning är att bidra till den snabba utvecklingen inom detta fält. Vi strävar efter att utveckla matematiska metoder för att hantera olika utmaningar med ett brett användWe are the Division of Computer Vision and Machine Learning at the Centre for Mathematical Sciences. Our focus involves both research and teaching in diverse aspects of Computer Vision and Machine Learning. Our research aim to actively contribute to the rapid advancements in these fields. We strive to develop mathematical methodologies to address various challenges within this domain. Our work has
In diffusion MRI (dMRI), images are sensitised to water diffusion by the application of magnetic field gradients. Cell membranes hinder the diffusional motion and thereby contribute to the contrast in dMRI. Thus, the diffusion of water molecules is used a probe of tissue microstructure. Data from dMRI is often analysed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which yields image biomarkers that reflec
The methodology behind this work has been to use the concept of algorithm-hardware co-design to achieve efficient solutions related to the digital front-end in mobile receivers. It has been shown that, by looking at algorithms and hardware architectures together, more efficient solutions can be found; i.e., efficient with respect to some design measure. In this thesis the main focus have been plac
One organizational innovation introduced by the clean energy for all Europeans package (CEP) is that of the energy community (EC), including the renewable energy community (REC) and citizen energy community (CEC). The translation of related directives into national legislation is underway in Sweden, and the Swedish Energy Market Inspectorate (Ei) has proposed a new law on ECs, which has been sent
Kliniskt centrum för hälsofrämjande vård integrerar forskning, undervisning och utbildning samt implementering och evaluering av klinisk hälsopromotion. Vår kliniska forskning är gränsöverskridande och syftar till att förbättra patientsäkerheten och hälsan på kort och lång sikt för den enskilda patienten och dennes familj, personalen, hälso- och sjukvården och samhället som stort. Våra aktiviteteThe Clinical Health Promotion Centre integrates research, teaching & training and implementation & evaluation of clinical health promotion. Our clinical research is cross-border and aims to improve patient safety and health benefits on short and long term of the individual patients and their family, the staff, the healthcare and society as a whole. The activities focus on improving prevention, t
The district heating sector in Sweden is today facing several challenges due to competition from other heating alterna-tives as well as decreasing heat demand in buildings. To increase its competitiveness, the district heating companieshave to find ways to keep their production costs at a more or less constant level. One way of doing this is to increasethe efficiency of the district heating syst
Battery cell assembly and testing in conventional battery research is acknowledged to be heavily time-consuming and often suffers from large cell-to-cell variations. Manual battery cell assembly and electrolyte formulations are prone to introducing errors which confound optimization strategies and upscaling. Herein we present ODACell, an automated electrolyte formulation and battery assembly setup
Using a range of different methods including extensive reviews, workshops and an electronic conference, 70 key research recommendations and 12 priority research needs to integrate the ecosystem services approach into biodiversity conservation policy and funding were identified by a cross-disciplinary group of over 100 scientists and 50 stakeholders, including research funders and policy-makers.
