Unhealthful lifestyles underpin much of the burden of cardiometabolic disease affecting contemporary societies. Our overarching objective is to discover and optimise measurable biomarkers that can be used to stratify patient populations into subgroups that can be treated more effectively with targeted lifestyle therapies, at lesser cost and with fewer adverse events than conventional approaches
LEVIC är en tvärvetenskaplig forskargrupp med forskare från juridik, filosofi, kognitiv psykologi och matematisk statistik. Vår forskning handlar om bevisvärdering, framförallt bevisvärdering i brottmål. Vi undersöker empiriskt hur bevisvärdering görs i domstolarna, och vi är särskilt intresserade av kognitiv bias, t.ex. olika typer av matematiska tankefel i de sannolikhetsbedömningar som uppkommeLEVIC is a cross-disciplinary research group with researchers from law, philosophy, cognitive psychology and statistics. Our research concerns legal fact-finding, especially criminal evidence. We investigate empirically how legal decision-makers (judges or jurors) evaluate evidence, and we are particularly interested in cognitive bias and probabilistic fallacies. We do research that aims to improv

Adverse life events during pregnancy may impact upon the developing fetus, predisposing prenatally stressed offspring to the development of psychopathology. In the present study, we examined the effects of prenatal restraint stress (PS) on anxiety- and depression-related behavior in both male and female adult Sprague-Dawley rats. In addition, gene expression profiles within the hippocampus and fro
En stor del av diabetesforskningen vid Lunds universitet görs inom forskningsmiljön EXODIAB som är ett strategiskt forskningsområde (SFO) i Sverige. Inom EXODIAB har Lunds universitets diabetescentrum (LUDC) och Uppsala universitet ett nära samarbete.A significant part of diabetes research at Lund University is conducted within EXODIAB, which is a strategic research area (SRA) in Sweden. Within EXODIAB, Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC) and Uppsala University work closely together.
This article aims to analyze the pursuit of happiness in the characters of three novels published every twenty years or so since 1963. The purpose is to show the real motivations of each character in the pursuit of happiness in each novel. Another objective is to show that Vargas Llosa's characters strive to find happiness despite the more diverse and adverse circumstances in which the author has
Avdelningen Studentstöd och lärande ger service och stöd till studenter och består av tre arbetsgrupper: Pedagogiskt studentstöd, Studieverkstaden och SI-verksamhet.Student Support and Learning provide service and support to students, and comprises three working groups: Disability Support Services, the Academic Support Centre, and the Supplemental Instruction unit.
Ofta har medicinsk forskning ett ensidigt fokus på individuell eller molekylär nivå. Det är dock lika viktigt att studera samhällets roll som determinant för individens hälsa genom livet. För att identifiera faktorer som påverkar hälsa, sjukdomsrisk och vårdutnyttjande, tar socialepidemiologin hänsyn till interaktioner mellan individen och det samhälle denna lever i. I vårt team som samlar kompeteMany medical research areas have a strong focus on individual or even molecular level. It is equally important, however, to study the role of society as determinant of individual health across the life-course. Social Epidemiology considers interactions between the individual and the society in which the individual lives in order to identify factors that influence health, disease risk and health ca
I vår grupp är vi intresserade av hur åldrande och åldersrelaterade sjukdomar påverkar hjärnans olika celler och hur vi kan använda stamceller för att studera och behandla sjukdomar i hjärnan. Vi använder oss av av nyskapande stamcells, reprogrammerings och genmodiferande teknologier för att studera hur genetiska processer involverade i åldrande och neurodegenerativa sjukdomar påverkar bildandet In our group we are interested in how aging and neurodegenerative diseases affect the brain, neural cells and neural stem cells. Using novel stem cell, reprogramming and genome editing technologies we are studying how genetic pathways involved in aging and neurodegenerative disease affect formation and function of neural cells. We also have a strong interest in basic stem cell biology with a clear
