Our main focus is understanding peripheral pathology in HD and investigate its importance for disease pathogenesis and biomarkers. Our work is based on the hypothesis that insights into peripheral pathology in HD will improve knowledge of key pathogenic mechanisms, possibly providing new biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets.
Our aim is to be a leading center of excellence within the field of national and international public health and to promote high quality research, education, and applied knowledge. The primary areas of research are sexual and reproductive health and rights, maternal and child health, youth health, social capital, health policy, marginalized populations, mental health, violence, substance abuse, ri
Many locations in Indonesia such as small islands and remote villages on the main islands are not connected to the main electricity grid, and may never be as they are too remote for grid extensions to be economically justifiable. Therefore, many either do not have electricity or are dependent on expensive diesel transports to fuel their stand alone, diesel powered mini-grids. Using a hybrid renewa
Vår multidisciplinära forskning fokuserar på personer med neurodegenerativa sjukdomar (såsom Parkinsons sjukdom och kognitiva sjukdomar), inklusive personer som har en ökad risk att utveckla sådana sjukdomar. En tidig upptäckt möjliggör tidigt stöd och rehabilitering. Vår forskning identifierar tidiga tecken, konsekvenser, prognostiska faktorer och behov av åtgärder. Forskningen avser även att ökOur multidisciplinary research focus on people with neurodegenerative diseases (ND), such as Parkinson’s disease and major neurocognitive disorders (dementia). We also include people at risk of developing ND. Early detection facilitates timely support and rehabilitation. Our research aims to determine early signs, consequences, unmet needs, and prognostic factors. We also aim to gain an increased
This research platform gathers scholars from a number of disciplines to interrogate the complex ideological, historical, and practical interactions between Christianity and nationalism. The platform understands both terms broadly; it investigates various forms of Christianity and different shapes of nationalism — through political, economic, sociological, historical, theological and philosophical
Metalloenzymes catalyse a wide variety of reactions in nature. In the thesis, I have studied the reaction mechanism of three metalloenzymes, viz. [NiFe] hydrogenase (H2ase), dimethyl sulfoxide reductase (DMSOR) and formate dehydrogenase (FDH), by theoretical methods, namely quantum mechanics (QM), combined quantum mechanical and molecular mechanics (QM/MM), as well as QM/MM thermodynamic cycle per
Closing implementation gaps through sustainable action nets This project deals with the principle formulated by the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency that sustainable waste policy should be oriented toward waste prevention and not only waste management. National authorities can steer through decisions and legislation, and introduce incitements and control mechanisms. But practical responsibi

Vid Miljö- och geovetenskapliga institutionen bedriver vi forskning och utbildning som belyser både grundläggande och tillämpade frågor om jordens tidigare, nuvarande och framtida klimat och miljö. Vi studerar också hur människor påverkar naturen och hur dessa förändringar i sin tur påverkar vårt välbefinnande. Institutionen utvecklar och använder avancerade metoder, modeller och tekniker inom blaAt the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, we conduct research and provide education that highlights both fundamental and applied questions concerning the Earth’s past, present and future climate and environment. We also study how humans affect nature and how these changes, in turn, influence our wellbeing. The department develops and uses advanced methods, models and technologies, inc
Microorganisms can be used for production of pharmaceutical substances. With the introduction of gene technology, it is possible to transfer information from one organism to the other, thereby making the receiving organism capable of producing substances that it did not so before. This development is very important for e.g. production of therapeutic proteins However, when using living organisms fo
Sagem Défense et Sécurité (now Safran Electronics & Defense), a French space and defense company of the SAFRAN group, is working on the next generation of Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). This UAS features a fully automatic Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) equipped with a state-of-the-art navigation system. This navigation system relies mainly on a high-accuracy Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) coupl
Sepsis är ett allvarligt, systemiskt svar på infektion och orsakas ofta av bakterier. Dödligheten kan vara upp till 30%. Snabb och korrekt diagnostik är central då dödligheten ökar med 8% för varje timme som går utan att patienten får adekvat behandling. Sepsis är tämligen okänt för allmänheten, och svårfångat pga hastig progress och olikheter i ursprung. Forskningen kring sepsis är underfinansierSepsis is a severe, systemic response to infection, often caused by bacteria. Approx. 30 million cases occur worldwide each year causing up to 8 million deaths. The mortality is as high as 30%. Rapid and accurate diagnosis is crucial, as mortality increases with 8% every hour that appropriate treatment is delayed. Sepsis is fairly unknown to the general public, and complicated by its rapid progres
Synchrotron radiation sources have greatly contributed to the progress in many fields of science. The development of the storage ring technologies has made possible to obtain very low emittance electron beams, which together with the use of undulators allow guiding a very high photon flux into a very small spot required by the experiments. Development of the sources has been accompanied with equa
The efficient simulation of thermal interaction between fluids and structures is crucial in the design of many industrial products, e.g. turbine blades or rocket nozzles. The main goal of this work is to present a high order time adaptive multirate parallel partitioned coupled method for the efficient numerical solution of two parabolic problems with strong jumps in the material coefficients that
As a result of a careful examination of the available Swedish material of the genus Clambus Fischer von Waldheim,1821 (Coleoptera: Clambidae), our current understanding of the Swedish Clambus fauna is revised. A total of 1844 specimens were identified from museum specimens as well as private collections, resulting in eight species belonging to the Swedish fauna. In the past there was confusion abo
Fokus för forskningen kan sammanfattas med orden vardag, hälsa och välbefinnande. Aktivitet, dess komplexitet, mening och vilken betydelse det har för människors upplevelse av hälsa och välbefinnande – är centralt. Vi som är organiserade i gruppen arbetar i varierande omfattning med undervisning, forskning och med att sprida våra resultat till brukare och olika verksamheter i samhället.The research in the Occupational therapy and occupational science-group is focused on occupation, health and wellbeing. The complexity, meaning and importance of the concept of everyday occupations for people’s health, is the key. The group works to a varying extent at teaching, research and dissemination of our results to users, in the society.
