Andrea Stuart är gynekolog med fokus på benign gynekologisk kirurgi och utveckling av minimalinvasiva metoder. Hon leder flera stora kliniska studier, bland annat den internationella RCT:n VANOLAH, som jämför vNOTES med vaginal kirurgi och laparoskopi för hysterektomi, samt den multinationella ADNOLA-studien där laparoskopi ställs mot vNOTES vid äggstockskirurgi för att optimera metodval och förbäAndrea Stuart is a gynecologist specializing in benign gynecological surgery, focusing on developing and comparing minimally invasive techniques. She leads a large international RCT comparing vNOTES with vaginal surgery and laparoscopy to determine which hysterectomy method offers the best outcomes and lowest complication rates. She also heads a multinational RCT comparing laparoscopy with vNOTES

Avdelningen för miljö- och energisystem är en tvärvetenskaplig forskningsmiljö med rötter i Miljövårdsprogrammet vid Lunds universitet som bildades 1969. 1987 blev vi en egen institution och 2000 blev vi en avdelning inom Institutionen för Teknik och samhälle.  Forskningen började med kritiska energisystem studier på 1970- och 80-talet som visade på alternativ till de då tillförselorienterade ochThe Division of Environmental and Energy System Studies is an interdisciplinary research group with roots from the “Environmental program” established at Lund University in 1969. The research began with critical energy systems studies in the 1970s of the then supply-oriented and fossil- and nuclear dominated energy systems in Sweden and the world. Today, we mainly do interdisciplinary energy sys

Forskargruppen Ekologisk och evolutionär fysiologi studerar de mekanismer som påverkar avvägningen mellan reproduktion och överlevnad hos olika fåglar. Blåmesen, till exempel, investerar i många ungar och lever därför kortare tid. Havsörnen, däremot, satsar på att leva länge och får då inte så många ungar.The research group Ecological and Evolutionary Physiology studies physiological and ecological mechanisms affecting the balance between reproduction and survival. This involves both special adaptations and evolutionary constraints. Birds such as the blue tit invest in many offspring and have shorter lifespans, while the white-tailed eagle invests in a long lifespan and fewer offspring.

The Department of Biochemistry and Structural Biology was created in 2010 after the merger of the Department of Biochemistry and the Department of Molecular Biophysics. The focus of research at the new Department is within some major areas of modern biochemistry and molecular biology. These include membrane protein structure and function; enzyme structure and function; molecular interactions and m

Encouraging Innovation and Research and Development stands as a priority of the EU and it is considered a cornerstone of economic growth and prosperity, but can it be promoted at any price? Due to the increasing importance of intangible assets in international trade, multinational corporations have been setting the transfer prices for intra-group transactions of such assets resorting to tax plann

The relationship between government spending and economic growth has captured scholars and policymakers over the years. Despite studies dating back to the early mid-1900s, establishing a clear causal relationship has yet to be discovered. This paper aims to contribute to the ongoing debate on the subject, with the ultimate goal of determining the effectiveness of fiscal policy. Employing a panel-V

Climate change and direct anthropogenic impact are recognized as two major factors affecting catchment runoff. This study investigated the separate effect of each of these factors for runoff from the important Tunisian Merguellil catchment. For this purpose, more than forty years of hydrological data were used. The methodology was based on hydrological characterization, NDVI index to monitor land

What would it be like if we said one thing, and heard ourselves saying something else? Would we notice something was wrong? Or would we believe we said the thing we heard? Is feedback of our own speech only used to detect errors, or does it also help to specify the meaning of what we say? Comparator models of self-monitoring favor the first alternative, and hold that our sense of agency is given b

A key to successful chronic neural interfacing is to achieve minimal glial scarring surrounding the implants, as the astrocytes and microglia may functionally insulate the interface. A possible explanation for the development of these reactions is mechanical forces arising between the implants and the brain. Here, we show that the difference between the density of neural probes and that of the tis

Chemokines are important in the development and progression of tumors. We investigated the expression of CXCL14 and CXCL16 in colon cancer. Expression of mRNA was assessed in primary tumors and lymph nodes and CXCL16 mRNA levels were correlated to patient’s survival. Protein expression was investigated by two-color immunofluorescence and immunomorphometry. CXCL14 and CXCL16 mRNA levels and protein

Fredrik NG Andersson and Lars Jonung argue that the current push for fiscal activism is short-sighted. Instead, the Swedish case from the last 25 years shows that stable public finances combined with supply-side policies is the recipe for economic stability and growth.

WNT5A is a well-known mediator of melanoma cell invasion and metastasis via its ability to activate protein kinase C (PKC), which is monitored by phosphorylation of the endogenous PKC substrate myristoylated alanine-rich c-kinase substrate (MARCKS). However, a possible direct contribution of MARCKS in WNT5A-mediated melanoma cell invasion has not been investigated. Analyses of melanoma patient dat

In linguistics and in the philosophy of language it is standardly assumed that know is a factive verb, meaning that a sentence such as X knows that p, when uttered in its positive declarative form, presupposes, in fact entails, the truth of its complement. A problem for this analysis is the fact that the verb know can be used non-factively in contexts where it is evident that the proposition expre
