Universities, operating at the intersection of state, market, and civil society, are increasingly called upon to address urgent global challenges, such as climate change, inequalities, and social injustice. This has given rise to hybrid roles for scholars, ranging from public intellectuals to policy advisers and academic entrepreneurs. Among these roles, scholar-activism stands out by explicitly a
In the Swedish context, ‘intergenerational Collaborative Housing’ and ‘Collaborative Housing for the second half of life’ (CH2L), based on the self-work model, were developed in the 1980s and 1990s. The chapter examines how ageing individuals developed caring practices and mutual support strategies in these collective housing forms and how such practices were adapted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Since 2002, Swedish higher education institutions have been mandated by the Higher Education Act to actively promote widening participation. However, there is no national definition of widening participation, leaving each institution to define its own objectives. This article investigates how teachers at Lund University in Sweden understand and implement widening participation, examining their per
BACKGROUND: Obesity represents a significant public health challenge, particularly in the context of coexisting chronic diseases and multi-morbidity. In Spain, and specifically in Catalonia, primary care plays a central role in prevention and management, yet barriers such as weight-related stigma can compromise care delivery.AIM: To evaluate the current state of obesity prevention and management w
The world is becoming more and more data driven. There are many ways to collect, analyse and disseminate data, and data ecosystems are among the most important environments that we have for facilitating this. Spatial data is one of the data types in data ecosystems, and data ecosystems play a key role in further value creation of the spatial data created, maintained and shared in the SDI. The work
Introduction: Swedish municipalities face a number of daunting challenges; an aging population, the public’s increased demands and expectations on municipality services, and a strained economy to mention some. Welfare technology, a Scandinavian concept launched to promote digitalization, is seen as one solution to meet these challenges. Objective: Despite these promises, few welfare technology app

Den här uppsatsen undersöker hur det arbetsrättsliga skyddet samt kollektiv-avtalen för professionella lagidrottare som blir gravida eller föräldrar ser ut. Uppsatsen kikar också närmare på de praktiska problem som kan uppstå i spänningen mellan idrottsjuridiken och samhällets lagar och regler. De lagid-rotter som arbetet undersökt är fotboll, ishockey, basket, handboll och inne-bandy. För att kun
Abstract in Undetermined Liquid food production often involves continuous processing. This leads to problems in traceability systems due to mixing zones and therefore indistinct batch identities causing difficulties with regard to withdrawals or recalls. This article outlines the possible use of the concept of dynamic simulation to improve the handling of batch identities in continuous production
BACKGROUND:Osteochondral fractures are often seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of acutely injured knees, but their existence has gained little interest because of a lack of knowledge of their relation to treatment options and outcome. It is not clear whether acute phase synovial fluid (SF) concentrations of cartilage and bone markers and proinflammatory cytokines are different between traum
PURPOSE:: The aim of this study was to compare the relative contribution of peak muscle force (isokinetic peak torque) with surrogate estimates of muscle force, including leg lean tissue mass (LTM) and vertical jump height (VJH), on bone mass, geometry and strength in healthy prepubertal girls (n = 103). METHODS:: Total leg and FN BMC and leg LTM were measured by DXA; the hip strength analysis pro
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive malignancy and new treatment modalities must be established to increase patient survival time. In the search for new therapeutic targets, reliable and well-characterised in vitro models are essential. In this study, we have characterised three MCL cell lines (SP53, Granta 519 and NCEB1) in comparison with primary tumors front MCL, follicular lymphomas (F
Ischemic stroke causes transient increase of neural stem and progenitor cell (NSPC) proliferation in the subventricular zone (SVZ), and migration of newly formed neuroblasts toward the damaged area where they mature to striatal neurons. The molecular mechanisms regulating this plastic response, probably involved in structural reorganization and functional recovery, are poorly understood. The adapt
