This article analyses the Europeanisation of Lund University from the mid-1980s until Sweden joined the European Union in 1995. At Lund University, internationalisation had long been high on the agenda but had not had any clear geographical focus. This was to change in the second half of the 1980s, particularly in 1987–1988, when the new emerging European market in research and higher education co
This special issue aims to deepen the understanding of the Europeanisation of universities from 1980 to the mid-1990s. By focussing on five universities situated in different European contexts, we aim to provide insight into how Europeanisation has taken place and changed higher education. The geographical diversity and the main differences between universities provide the opportunity to show both

The art of medicine in the semi-urban and poorly literate medieval Nordic countries was essentially a craft. Those skilled in medicine learned their profession by being apprenticed to people who were more experienced and knowledgeable. But unlike other crafts, such as that of the potter or the carpenter, one could not practice just any way. One could not start from scratch with one’s lump of clay
Svenska Dagbladet (SvD) kulturdebatt: På Polymarket kan du satsa pengar på såväl vardagliga händelser som vår tids ödesfrågor. Det väcker tankar om hur spel påverkar demokratin.
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) remains the standard method for axillary staging in breast cancer. However,for the majority of patients with early breast cancer, it offers no treatment benefit and carries a risk of long-termside effects. In the era of surgical de-escalation, reliable preoperative assessment of axillary lymph node metastasis isessential to avoid overtreatment and support treatmen
Background: Despite advances in surgical technique and perioperative care, liver surgery remains associated with high morbidity, varying oncological outcomes and postoperative pain. This thesis evaluates aspects of the surgical technique and perioperative pain management, and their influence on the postoperative recovery, morbidity and overall survival.Methods: The thesis includes four studies. Pa
Who benefited from agricultural commercialization in colonial Africa? Using social tables for three African economies, we identify a small group of rural capitalists who captured disproportionate gains. We demonstrate how their strategies of accumulation varied across contexts and shaped divergent and often unequal development trajectories.
Background: Scintigraphy of the renal cortex with technetium-99m labelled dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc-DMSA) is well established in the follow-up of pyelonephritis in children. This method allows detection of focal defects of renal function, as well as measurement of the relative contribution of each kidney to total renal function - split renal function (SRF). Within nuclear medicine, the long t
Background Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental condition influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Prenatal and perinatal exposures have been implicated in ASD etiology, but their influence may vary across clinical subgroups, including subgroups defined by co-occurring intellectual disability (ID). Methods We conducted a population-based case–control st
Background: This study evaluates deep learning (DL) using gene expression (GEX) and preoperatively available clinical data (PreopClinic) to predict sentinel lymph node macro-metastasis (SLNM), and explores their potential for guiding axillary surgery de-escalation and supporting prognostic assessment.Methods: We retrospectively included 6,836 clinically node-negative (cN0) T1-T2 patients with inva
The genus Mentha is highly valued in pharmaceutical, culinary, and personal care industries due to its rich aromatic and pharmacological traits. However, its complex taxonomy and genetic diversity create challenges for breeding programs focused on aroma and therapeutic qualities. To address these challenges, this study developedand validated a rapid, semi-quantitative metabotyping method to efficiThe genus Mentha is highly valued in pharmaceutical, culinary, and personal care industries due to its rich aromatic and pharmacological traits.

Att sluta begå brott handlar inte enbart om förändrade handlingar, utan också om hur individer omformulerar vem de är. Denna avhandling analyserar hur unga personer med erfarenhet av kriminalitet konstruerar och förhandlar sina identiteter i berättelser om brottsdebut, fortsatt brottslighet och upphörande med brott. Avhandlingen behandlar tre centrala frågor: (1) Vilka innehållsmässiga komponenterIn this thesis I explore how young people with a criminal record choose to construct and negotiate their identities in narratives about debut offences, re-offending, and desistance. I address three key questions: (1) What content-related components are central to young people’s narratives of desistance? (2) What linguistic and cultural resources do young people draw on to present themselves as cre
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is defined as aortic diameter ≥30 mm measured by ultrasound. AAA prevalence increases with age and is higher in men, but has decreased during the last decades, related to lower smoking rates. Tobacco smoking, concomitant atherosclerosis, arterial hypertension, and family history are the most common risk factors. AAA has atherosclerotic, inflammatory, apoptotic, a
Water-related damage represents a major challenge in the built environment, with consequences for building performance and occupant health. While external factors can contribute, this study focuses on damage originating from internal sources. Deficiencies and failures in building service systems, water supply, sewage, and technical installations, constitute a substantial problem, leading to repair
This paper studies cone-preserving linear discrete-time switched systems whose switching is governed by an automaton. For this general system class, we present performance analysis conditions for a broadly usable performance measure. In doing so, we generalize several known results for performance and stability analysis for switched and positive switched systems, providing a unifying perspective.
Municipalities shoulder the burden of creating business-friendly environments – managing infrastructure, navigating public resistance, and investing countless hours in smoothing the path for economic development. Yet, the rewards often flow elsewhere. Local taxes on economic activity offer a powerful solution. While a thriving local economy boosts budgets, different taxes shape municipal decision-
Despite substantial progress in Remote Sensing (RS)-based estimation of Water Quality Parameters (WQPs) using Machine Learning (ML) models, there remains a lack of end-to-end software that automates the entire workflow. To address this gap, this paper introduces WQEye (v1), an open-source software offering a user-friendly interface comprising six modular components: (1) Data loader; (2) RS samplin
