Universities have become important components of the national innovation systems in innovation driven economies. To strengthen the university related flow of mainly technological knowledge into commercialized products many European countries have followed the American example and changed from an inventor-ownership system to a university-owned system (Genua & Rossi, 2011).

However, the spectrum of malignancies associated with common genetic etiology and the effects of gender and age on familial risk have not been established.METHODS: Diagnoses of lymphoproliferative malignancies were compared in 15,799 first-degree relatives of
For biomass fuelled CHP in sizes below 100 kW, Stirling engines are the only feasible alternative today. Using wood powder as fuel, the Stirling engine can be heated directly by the flame like when using a gaseous or liquid fuel burner. However, the combustion chamber will have to be much larger due to the slow burning of the fuel. To avoid sintering of ash the flame temperature in a biomass burne
Background No data exist regarding mortality rate in young patients with a first-time anterior shoulder dislocation. A cohort of 255 patients aged 1240 years had a primary anterior shoulder dislocation during the years 1978 and 1979. After 10 years, 9 of the patients had died-which is a high figure for this cohort of patients. The question thus arose as to whether these patients had an increased m
