This paper provides an update on the fast-evolving topic of the induced polarization (IP) method applied to biogeophysics. It emphasizes new understandings of the IP phenomena associated with biological activity, pointing out new developments and applications, and identifying existing knowledge gaps. The focus is on the use of IP as related to living organisms, including micro-organisms and plants
Spectral induced polarization (SIP) measurements have been demonstrated to correlate with important parame-ters in hydrogeological and environmental investigations. Although SIP measurements were often collected in thefrequency domain (FDIP), recent developments have demonstrated the capabilities to solve for the frequency-de-pendence of the complex conductivity through measurements collected in t
The frequency-dependence of the induced polarization effect (IP), in the so-called spectral IP (SIP), has been demonstrated to be strongly correlated to important parameters in hydrogeological and environmental investigations. This has prompted the development of measuring instruments and modelling techniques towards the collection of laboratory and field data with enhanced accuracy and at a broad
Aim of the MIRACHL project is the characterisation and monitoring of in-situ remediation of chlorinated hydrocarbon contamination using an interdisciplinary approach. Therefore, geophysical methods, as e.g. DCIP are used to investigate the remediation process.To interpret these geophysical field IP data, lab investigations with different kinds of bacteria are necessary to assess the sensitivity of
Peer support workers are increasingly considered an essential ingredient in recovery-oriented mental health services. While research continues to point to promising results concerning the ability of these workers to positively impact service users’ experience of hope, quality of life and even health, peer support workers have only recently been introduced in Sweden and the aim of this study was to

There is a need for novel strategies to initiate cancer cell death. One approach is the use of Smac mimetics, which antagonize inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs). Recent studies have shown that combinations of Smac mimetics such as LBW242 or LCL161 in combination with chemotherapeutic agents increase cancer cell death. Here we show that the protein kinase C (PKC) activator TPA together with th
Definitions and understandings of disease are to a large extent culturally dependent, even if there are also biological components to this. While many medieval religious orders nursed an interest for science and knowledge in general, their approach to medicine was complicated by the complex attitude towards illness and the tending of the body within Christendom. Archaeological artifacts from Ciste
Is the Rojava model really deconstructing the model of a state or is it potentially a new state form? Does the ‘democratic confederalism’ model that the Kurdish movement claims to be implementing in Northern Syria draw on/reproduce different modes of identity/belonging than that of the nation and the state? This paper argues that the shift from a nationalist movement towards a project that offers
Despite the enormous amount of attention CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 has received, we are still lacking an in-depth understanding of its basic properties. In particular, the directional mechanical and structural ch
Scarcity of in situ measurements of greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes hamper calibration and validation of continental assessments of carbon budgets in Africa. It limits essential studies of ecosystem functioning and ecosystem processes. Wide reported ranges of estimated African net primary production (NPP) and gross primary production (GPP) is a function of the uncertainty originating from this scarcit
