Course description: Health and the environment with a focus on climate change and sustainability We find ourselves facing an enormous challenge when it comes to climate change. Possibly the greatest incentive to address this challenge is the threat it poses to human health. According to the Lancet Commission, the impending effects of climate change will undoubtedly disrupt the work performed withi

Background Technological advancements over the last decades have resulted in an increased degree of digitalisation within as well as in between companies around the world. As a result, requirements on companies in general are growing and global competition is steadily increasing. One area for which this is highly relevant, and for which there is still a lot of potential for improvement, is industr
Pollen plays a key role in plant reproductive biology. Despite the long history of research on pollen and pollination, recent advances in pollen-tracking methods and statistical approaches to linking plant phenotype, pollination performance, and reproductive fitness yield a steady flow of exciting new insights. In this introduction to the Special Issue “Pollen as the Link Between Phenotype and Fit
Rare-earth (RE) doped optical materials are distinguished by their unique optical and electronic properties. These characteristics are essential for various applications, including laser stabilization, and phosphors. However, the sensitivity of these materials to environmental factors and intrinsic defects necessitates a deep understanding. Grasping how these factors influence the refractive index
Ethics is increasingly recognized as one of several important dimensions of performance. Yet, performance audit, or value-for-money audit, as conducted by supreme audit institutions (SAIs), does not typically include this dimension. Instead, the focus is on the classical ‘three Es’ (efficiency, economy and effectiveness). The reluctance to address issues of ethical misconduct has taken the audit pEthics is increasingly recognized as one of several important dimensions of performance.

Allt eftersom behandlingar för neurodegenerativa sjukdomar utvecklas, har tidig identifiering av kognitiv försämring blivit allt viktigare för att kunna påbörja en snabb intervention och bedöma behandlingens effektivitet. Denna avhandling undersöker olika aspekter av kognitiv testning relaterad till neurokognitiva störningar.Introduction: It is important to understand how to interpret and utilize cognitiveassessment results for diagnosis, treatment, and inclusion in clinical studies. Astreatments for neurodegenerative diseases advance, the need to identify cognitivedecline in its earliest stages is becoming increasingly important, both for the timelyinitiation of treatment and for assessing the efficacy of interventio
The family Simuliidae includes more than 2000 species of black flies worldwide. Their morphological uniformity creates difficulty for species identification, which limits our knowledge of their ecology and vectorial role. We investigated the systematics of black flies in a semiarid area of the Iberian Peninsula, an ecologically harsh environment for these organisms. Sampling adult black flies in t
Research aimed at developing new therapies for Parkinson's disease (PD) critically depend on valid animal models of the disease that allows for repeated testing of motor disabilities over extended time periods. We here present an extensive characterization of a wide range of motor symptoms in the 6-OHDA marmoset model of PD when tested over several months. The severity of motor deficits was quanti
INTRODUCTION: This study assessed short and long term effects of a 3-year controlled school-based physical activity (PA) intervention on fatness, cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2peak) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in children. METHODS: The study involved 18 schools (10 intervention and 8 controls) and included a follow-up 4 years after the end of intervention. The analyses included 6
Popular Abstract in Swedish Grupp B streptokocker (GBS; Streptococcus agalactiae) är den vanligaste orsaken till livs-hotande infektioner hos nyfödda barn. Enbart i USA orsakar GBS ~10 000 fall av meningit (hjärnhinneinflammation), pneumoni (lunginflammation) och sepsis (blodförgiftning) varje år. Infektionerna har hög dödlighet och en stor del av de barn som överlever infektionerna får bestående Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus) and the group B streptococcus (GBS) are two important human pathogens that cause different types of diseases and express different surface structures implicated in virulence. This thesis focuses on several surface proteins expressed by these pathogens, analyzing the biological function of these proteins and their ability to elicit protective immunity.
The overall objective of this thesis was to investigate how CSR is approached by commercial banks in the U.S and Sweden respectively. We have therefore made a comparative analysis of the national differences in terms of CSR. This research was done by introducing and identifying dimensions that affect the CSR practices in each country. These dimensions have been analyzed based on the national busin

Background: Regular, detailed reporting on population health by underlying cause of death is fundamental for public health decision making. Cause-specific estimates of mortality and the subsequent effects on life expectancy worldwide are valuable metrics to gauge progress in reducing mortality rates. These estimates are particularly important following large-scale mortality spikes, such as the COV
The spectrum of frontotemporal dementia/amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FTD/ALS) and Huntington disease (HD) are fatal neurodegenerative disorders with no major disease-modifying therapies. Recent work has shown that the hallmark pathological proteins TAR DNA binding protein of 43 kDa (TDP-43) in FTD/ALS and mutant huntingtin (mHTT) in HD may be interlinked. Furthermore, these disorders share early
