Artificially cultivated meat may have environmental benefits and harm-reductive capabilities, making it crucial to establishing ethical food production practices. However, we argue that salient factors make producing and consuming artificially cultivated meat morally problematic. We detail some of these factors and highlight their roots in different ethical traditions. These factors present seriou

Projektet Sol i gemenskap: deltagande, organisation och regelverk (SiG) syftade till att undersöka hur deltagande, organisation och regelverk påverkar de allmänna villkoren för så kallade ”solgemenskaper” samt vilka grupper som investerar i gemensamt ägd solelproduktion i Sverige. Det har gjorts genom en kartläggning av befintliga solgemenskaper och re-gelverk för gemensamt ägd elproduktion i Sver

Given a directed graph as input, we show how to efficiently find a shortest (directed, simple) cycle on an even number of vertices. As far as we know, no polynomial-time algorithm was previously known for this problem. In fact, finding any even cycle in a directed graph in polynomial time was open for more than two decades until Robertson, Seymour, and Thomas (Ann. of Math. (2) 1999) and, independ

BACKGROUND: Phosphorylation plays an essential role in regulating voltage-gated sodium (Na(v)) channels and excitability. Yet, a surprisingly limited number of kinases have been identified as regulators of Na(v) channels. We posited that glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3), a critical kinase found associated with numerous brain disorders, might directly regulate neuronal Na(v) channels.METHODS: We u

It is of paramount importance that software reliability requirements not only can be formulated, but also enforced and evaluated before accepting a software product for release. This requires sound acceptance criteria for software, which implies that methods for evaluating the software reliability are needed during the testing phase. Thus, theoretical models which are practically applicable are ne

The Fourier dimension is not, in general, stable under finite unions of sets. Moreover, the stability of the Fourier dimension on particular pairs of sets is independent from the stability of the compact Fourier dimension.

The levels and conformers of alpha-synuclein are critical in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's Disease and related synucleinopathies. Homeostatic mechanisms in protein degradation and secretion have been identified as regulators of alpha-synuclein at different stages of its intracellular trafficking and transcellular propagation. Here we review pathways involved in the removal of various forms of al

The most unfavourable orientation of a straight crack of given length is investigated, assuming mode I growth. It is shown that this orientation is not always the one perpendicular to the largest principal stress. If the smallest in-plane principal stress is compressive and its magnitude more than about one third of the largest (tensile) in-plane stress, then some other orientations are more unfav

There are plenty of books and articles on research methods, but few discuss the nature and purpose of method sections in academic journals. Based on interviews with critical and interpretivist researchers, this short paper examines the nature and purpose of method sections in management and organization studies. We show how researchers make sense of, and struggle with, positivist expectations abou

Trots de senaste årtiondenas betydande framsteg inom cancerforskningen, vilket bland annat avspeglas i ett ständigt ökande utbud av nya läkemedel, har cancerdiagnostiken, som bedrivs av patologer, inte utvecklats i samma takt. För att uppnå visionen om individualiserad cancerbehandling måste därför den kliniska patologin utveckla bättre verktyg för att kunna identifiera biologiska särdrag, s.k. biThe pathologist’s role is to deliver accurate diagnosis of disease, so as to enable optimal treatment strategies for individual patients. In the wake of the ‘omics revolution, with an increasing availability and impact of a wide range of molecular technologies, clinical pathology is currently undergoing a paradigm shift. However, despite the clear value of these technologies in further refining th

Forskningsområdet berör forskning om social utsatthet, ojämlikhet och sociala problem i en bred bemärkelse. Inom området ryms teman om bland annat fattigdom och hemlöshet. Forskningsprojekt inom området tillämpar en rad olika metoder och teorier för att analysera ojämlikhetens konsekvenser på flera nivåer, från den lokala till jämförande studier i ett internationellt perspektiv. Teorier om makt ocThe research area covers research on social vulnerability, inequality and social problems in a broad sense. The area includes the study of, among other things, poverty and homelessness. Research projects in the field apply diverse methods and theories to analyze the consequences of inequality on several levels, from the local to comparative studies in an international perspective. Theories of pow

Lunds universitets fyra campus ska erbjuda attraktiva akademiska miljöer som tydligt visar universitetets identitet. Forskning och lärande står i centrum, samtidigt som campusen också fungerar som platser för social interaktion, återhämtning och rekreation – allt i en trygg och inkluderande miljö. Universitetets campus utvecklas kontinuerligt för att möta behoven i ett samhälle i förändring. Lokal

Photoactivation of photosystem II has been studied in the FUD 39 mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii that lacks the 23 kDa extrinsic subunit of photosystem II. We have taken advantage of the slow photoactivation rate of FUD 39, earlier demonstrated in Rova, E. M., et al. [(1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 28918-28924], to study events in photosystem II during intermediate stages of the process. By measur
