Background: The power and influence of the hidden curriculum - culturally situated norms and values - onlearning opportunities is a growing concern in medical education. However, while medical schools producediversity and equal treatment policies, efforts towards surfacing and addressing equal opportunities in theclinical learning environment trail behind.Summary of Work: To better understand how

Circadian clocks were, until recently, seen as a consequence of rhythmic transcription of clock components, directed by transcriptional/translational feedback loops (TTFLs). Oscillations of protein modification were then discovered in cyanobacteria [1, 2]. Canonical posttranslational signaling processes have known importance for clocks across taxa [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11]. More recently, evid

BackgroundIn Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET-CT), there is significant renal uptake. The standard in renal cortical functional imaging is scintigraphy with technetium-99m labeled dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA). Using [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET for renal imaging has been suggested, but using [18F]PSMA-1007 has not been explored. The aim

While the original ideals of sport were rooted primarily in recreation and physical competition, they have since long been complemented, potentially even overshadowed, by elements of entertainment and commercialization. At the center of professional sports stand sports governing bodies, typically or- ganized as non-profit organizations, which are responsible for regulating their respective discipl

Forskargruppen bedriver forskning och utbildning på forskarnivå inom aktivt och hälsosamt åldrande. Vi medverkar i flera av Medicinska fakultetens utbildningsprogram på grundnivå och avancerad nivå, samt gör utbildningsinsatser vid tekniska (LTH) respektive samhällsvetenskapliga fakulteten. Här arbetar forskare och lärare från flera discipliner och professioner - arbetsterapi, fysioterapi, omvårdnThe group consists of about 25 senior and junior researchers, PhD students and technical and administrative staff. We represent many different disciplines and professions - gerontology, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, nursing, public health, sociology, psychology and epidemiology. Many of the employees are licensed health care professionals. The research group is the core of the interdiscipl

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are important regulators of signal transduction processes mediated by cAMP and cGMP. One PDE family member, PDE3B, plays an important role in the regulation of a variety of metabolic processes such as lipolysis and insulin secretion. In this study, the cellular localization and the role of PDE3B in the regulation of triglyceride, cholesterol and glucose

This study examined an econometric analysis of the macroeconomic determinants of carbon dioxide (CO2) emission in Nigeria, covering the periods between 1981 and 2016, employing both linear and non-linear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL & NARDL) models. The time series data used were sourced from the database of the World Bank Development Indicators, 2016 and Central Bank of Nigeria Statis

The electrical output of low concentration systems with standard pv cells is heavily impaired by non uniform irradiation distribution on the cells. In order to design new concentrators that improve the system efficiency by homogenizing the light, a new method of evaluation has been developed. It is based on simulations, and generates an estimated annual output. The method consists of three steps,

A key to successful chronic neural interfacing is to achieve minimal glial scarring surrounding the implants, as the astrocytes and microglia may functionally insulate the interface. A possible explanation for the development of these reactions is mechanical forces arising between the implants and the brain. Here, we show that the difference between the density of neural probes and that of the tis

Voltage-gated Ca2+ (CaV) channels trigger glucose-induced insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cell and their dysfunction increases diabetes risk. These heteromeric complexes include the main subunit alpha1, and the accessory ones, including subunit gamma that remains unexplored. Here, we demonstrate that CaV gamma subunit 4 (CaVγ4) is downregulated in islets from human donors with diabetes, diabe

LUPREP är ett tvärvetenskapligt centrum där forskare från hela universitetet samlas för att tillsammans förklara, förstå och förbättra samhällets beredskap och resiliens. Här möts expertis inom allt från risk- och krishantering, psykologiskt försvar och underrättelseanalys till kritisk infrastruktur, civilsamhällets roll och innovation inom totalförsvaret. Genom att koppla samman forskare, myndighLUPREP is an interdisciplinary center where researchers from across the university come together to explain, understand, and improve society’s preparedness and resilience. The center brings together expertise in everything from risk and crisis management, psychological defense, and intelligence analysis to critical infrastructure, the role of civil society, and innovation within total defense.

This paper examines policy processes surrounding the rise and fall of the proposed EU-wide policy instrument designed to help achieve EU´s renewable energy targets – the trading of Guarantees of Origin (GO). It discusses its origins and examines factors in the policy processes over time leading first to its development and then to its rejection. A first analysis looks at the near-term policy-makin

This paper attempts to assemble a conceptual framework for understanding to what extent an energy technology is simply a way of putting nature to work, and to what extent it is a way of putting other segments of global society to work. The turn to fossil energy reversed the relation between energy and space, as fossil fuels henceforth propelled new transport technologies that provided access to in
