Fuel cells are considered as a promising alternative environmentally benign power source to the existing ones depending on petroleum oil. Especially, proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have been intensively developed during the last decade because of their wide application windows including various portable, stationary and transportation applications. The market has been and will be main

Forskargruppen studerar gynekologisk cancer och förebyggande av livmoderhalscancer och benskörhet. Självprovtagning från slidan för HPV-analyser och andra diagnostiska metoder såsom metyleringsanalyser visar lovande resultat för att förebygga livmoderhalscancer. Avseende äggstocks- och livmodercancer letar vi efter biomarkörspaneler och DNA-mutationer i blod för diagnostik och att prediktera prognWe study Gynecological cancer and the prevention of cervical cancer and osteoporosis. We evaluate self-sampling HPV analyses and other diagnostic methods such as methylation analyses in cervical cancer prevention. In ovarian and endometrial cancer, we search for biomarker panels and cell free DNA mutations as diagnostic and predictive markers. We study Quality of Life (QoL) and patient related exp

Several of our successful research groups address issues such as economic growth, innovation and technological change at micro and macro level, globalisation, urbanisation and regional imbalances, and interpersonal inequality in income and wealth.
