The current institutional framework for sustainable development is by far not strong enough to bring about the swift transformative progress that is needed. This article contends that incrementalism-the main approach since the 1972 Stockholm Conference-will not suffice to bring about societal change at the level and speed needed to mitigate and adapt to earth system transformation. Instead, the ar
Recurrent copy number variants (CNVs) are found in a significant proportion of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) and some of these CNVs are associated with other developmental defects. In some syndromic patients, CHD may be the first presenting symptom, thus screening of patients with CHD for CNVs in specific genomic regions may lead to early diagnosis and awareness of extracardiac symp
While knowledge theorists urge attention to knowing in practice, two common habits in the empirical literature, which we call knowledge inherency and skepticism, function to re-center certain practitioners. The sites in which we study knowing thereby remain limited, hindering a fuller practice turn. We argue that this enduring tendency is problematic because it inhibits our understanding of ‘commu
Abstract in UndeterminedProfessor Mylly suggests that the Lisbon Treaty opens a new avenue for the Commission when the internal legislative pathway becomes too complicated, demanding unanimity in decision-making. An alternative route would be to use the competence to enter into international agreements, where qualified majority is enough. The agreements may be phrased in such a way that they have
An automated glucose feeding strategy that avoids acetate accumulationin cultivations of Escherichia coli is discussed. We havepreviously described how a probing technique makes it possible todetect and avoid overflow metabolism using a dissolved oxygen sensor.In this paper these ideas are extended with a safety net thatguarantees that aerobic conditions are maintained. The method isgenerally appl
Antimicrobial peptides are effector molecules of the innate immune system. We recently showed that the human antimicrobial peptides alpha-defensin and LL-37 bind to glycosaminoglycans (heparin and dermatan sulphate). Here we demonstrate the obverse, i.e. structural motifs associated with heparin affinity (cationicity, amphipaticity, and consensus regions) may confer antimicrobial properties to a g
Öppna digitala lärresurser (Open Educational Resources - OER) är resurser som finns tillgängliga på Internet och som kan användas fritt och i många fall också bearbetas fritt. Universitet världen över lägger ut sitt kursmaterial fritt på nätet, t ex MIT, Stanford och Open University. Lunds universitet har nyligen skapat en egen YouTube kanal och kommer snart att finnas på iTunesU och blir alltmer
This paper looks at how China’s domestic development discourse creates and governs realities of objects, and subject. Using the works of Xi Jinping, the thesis uses the methods of governmentality by Mitchel Dean to analyze the data from the four analytical tools of epistheme, visibility, technical aspect, and identity to look at how the subject is positioned within collective mentalities, status o
A responsible and sustainable water resources management is important. It is also crucial to take the presence of watercourses into account during design of hydraulic structures such as small dams and bridges. Doing this requires knowledge of estimates of annual streamflow and extreme flows to be used for design purposes. This study is divided into two parts, both focusing on the departments of Sa
Offentliga uppgifter och verksamheter utförs inte bara av statliga och kommunala myndighetsorgan utan även genom andra fristående rättssubjekt, såsom bolag, korporationer och enskilda. Det allmännas skadeståndsansvar påverkas först och främst av om det utgör myndighetsutövning, vilket bland annat ställer krav på verksamhetens karaktär och anknytning till ett myndighetsärende. Även utanför detta om
The Philippines is a unique case to study national identity as it’s a post-colonial, highly Americanized country constituted by quantities of ethnic groups. Filipino identity emerged from the revolution against Spanish colonization and developed as an anti-colonial movement along with its struggles for independence. However, after independence, the Philippines has been facing a dilemma that, on on
