Sociology is the study of how society functions, both in everyday interactions and within broader systems. At the micro level, it examines how individuals relate to one another in groups and organisations. At the macro level, it investigates global structures and processes, and how these shape national and local contexts. Through a sociological lens, we seek to describe and explain social relation
Harvey's capital switching thesis is one of the most influential contributions of Marxist geographers, providing a framework for understanding structural determinants of capital flows into urban land and built environments. Harvey's thesis has drawn criticism in subsequent debates for its lack of direct empirical support. Even decades later, several gaps remain. The most comprehensive intervention
Understanding variation in survival and reproduction is key for conservation and management of bird populations. By compiling and analysing data on hatching success (i.e. proportion of nests with at least one hatched egg) from Common Eider Somateria m. mollissima, Velvet Scoter Melanitta fusca and Red-breasted Merganser Mergus serrator, all breeding on a single island in the Baltic Sea, we demonst
Bakteriella infektioner är ett stort globalt hälsoproblem och mer detaljerad kunskap om värd-bakterieinteraktioner är nödvändiga för att kunna bemöta den ökande antibiotikaresistensen. Nordenfelt-labbet använder unik biosensorteknologi tillsammans med avancerad videomikroskopi och bildanalystekniker för att studera tidiga värd-bakterieinteraktioner. Den molekylära sammansättningen av bakterier ochBacterial infections represent a major global health issue and more detailed knowledge about host-bacteria interactions are needed to counteract the rising bacterial resistance to antibiotics. The Nordenfelt Lab uses unique biosensor technology in conjunction with advanced live imaging and image analysis techniques to study initial host-pathogen interactions. The molecular surface composition of
MedCUL är Medicinska fakultetens Centrum för Undervisning och Lärande. Vi erbjuder kompetensutveckling inom undervisning och lärande. Vi verkar för att utformning av, beslut om och genomförande av utbildning ska vila på aktuellt internationellt kunskapsläge inom utbildningsområdet.MedCUL coordinates the faculty's quality assurance work at undergraduate level in cooperation with educational committees and program directors. We collaborate with teachers and educational leaders in developmental projects. Our research in medical education concerns areas related to our practice such as Problem Based Learning (PBL), workplace learning and supervision, PhD student supervision and
BdbD is a thiol: disulfide oxidoreductase (TDOR) from Bacillus subtilis that functions to introduce disulfide bonds in substrate proteins/peptides on the outside of the cytoplasmic membrane and, as such, plays a key role in disulfide bond management. Here we demonstrate that the protein is membrane-associated in B. subtilis and present the crystal structure of the soluble part of the protein lacki
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Global Atmosphere Watch (GAW) coordinates high-quality atmospheric greenhouse gas observations globally and provides these observations through the WMO World Data Centre for Greenhouse Gases (WDCGG) supported by Japan Meteorological Agency. The WDCGG and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) analyse these measurements using different
Extensive research is being conducted on magnesium (Mg) alloys for bone implant manufacturing, due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability and mechanical properties. Gadolinium (Gd) is among the most promising alloying elements for property control in Mg alloy implants; however, its toxicity is controversial. Investigating Gd behavior during implant corrosion is thus of utmost importance. In t
Monoamine oxidase (MAO), which exists in two isozymic forms, MAO A and MAO B, is an important flavoenzyme responsible for the metabolism of amine neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. Despite extensive research effort, neither the catalytic nor the inhibition mechanisms of MAO have been completely understood. There has also been dispute with regard to the protonation s
