Although renovation costs can lead to rent increases in energy retrofitting, it is often assumed that reductions in energy costs will counterbalance the rent increase. In Swedish multifamily housing, energy costs for heating are however generally included as a fixed component in the monthly rent, meaning that the rent increase after energy retrofitting corresponds to the net change in rent level a

Minimalinvasiv hjärtkirurgi definieras som hjärtkirurgiska operationstekniker där man avstår från en full median sternotomin (längsgående delning av hela bröstbenet). Hjärtoperationen sker då istället med alternativa exponeringstekniker under det att man använder konventionell hjärt-lungmaskin. Beroende på diagnos utförs antingen operationen med video-assisterad, eller robot-assisterad, endoskopi Minimally invasive cardiac surgery is defined a cardiac surgery with heart-lung machine, but without full median sternotomy. Depending on the underlying disease the surgical procedures can be performed through a 4-6 cm mini-thoracotomy on the right side with either video-assisted or robotic-asssited endoscopy or through a partial split of the sternum. We believe that minimally invasive facilitate

Preeklampsi är ett allvarligt graviditetsrelaterat tillstånd som årligen drabbar 10 miljoner kvinnor världen över. Etiologin är ännu okänd och diagnosen ställs baserad på moderns kliniska symptom: högt blodtryck och någon organpåverkan som debuterar efter 20 veckors graviditet. För närvarande är förlossning den enda ”boten”. Preeklampsi medför en ökad långsiktig risk för utveckling av hjärt-kärlsjPreeclampsia is a severe pregnancy-related condition that annually affects 10M women worldwide. The etiology is largely unknown and diagnosis is currently based on maternal clinical symptoms: high blood pressure and organ damage manifesting after 20 weeks of gestation. Delivery is currently the only cure. Increased long-term risk for cardiovascular diseases and stroke after preeclampsia point to i

Title: Is the Honeymoon Over For Instagram? - A qualitative study on how Generation Y reasons about brand marketing strategies Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how Instagram-users from Generation Y reason about various forms of marketing on Instagram, in order to contribute with a deeper understanding on how they view brand strategies to reach them as consumers. Theoretical

The purpose of this thesis is to gain an understanding of the credibility gap between consumers and marketing strategies that aims at gaining moral legitimacy by taking a stand, since it is becoming increasingly important for companies to gain moral legitimacy. By triangulating theories within consumer culture theory, corporate social responsibility and organizational legitimacy and conducting a q

Private Rivers is a study of contested processes whereby use rights to water are privatised for electricity production. It engages with the issues of renewable energy solutions and the sustainability of run-of-river hydro projects in Turkey by investigating the connection between these policies and justice for rural populations, whose livelihood depends on the rivers. Since 2001, water privatisati

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

Regeringen beslutade 2009 om en satsning på strategiska forskningsområden, som ett led i att skapa världsledande forskning, på rekommendation av Vetenskapsrådet, Fas, Formas, Vinnova och Energimyndigheten.

Lunds universitet har 11 strategiska forskningsområden, vars verksamhet spänner över i princip alla fakulteter och ofta är tvärvetenskaplig, för vilka LU årligen erhåller ca 190 MSEK i In 2009, the government decided to invest in strategic research areas, as part of creating world-leading research, on the recommendation of the Swedish Research Council, Fas, Formas, Vinnova and the Swedish Energy Agency..

Lund University has 11 strategic research areas, the activities of which span virtually all faculties and are often interdisciplinary, for which LU annually receives ab

Genom att kombinera kunskapen från kliniskt aktiva läkare och forskare tror vi att vi snabbt och effektivt kan få kunskap om de spektrala egenskaperna hos hudcancer och jättecellartrit och översätta detta till avbildningsverktyg för detektion av tumörgränser och diagnostik. Genom att mäta blodflöde under och efter periorbital rekonstruktiv kirurgi strävar vi efter att uppdatera kirurgiska teknikerBy combining the knowledge of clinically active medical doctors and researchers we believe that we can rapidly and effectively gain knowledge on the spectral properties of skin cancer and giant cell arthritis and translate this into imaging tools for tumor border outlining and diagnosis. Through monitoring of blood flow perfusion during and following periorbital reconstructive surgery we aim to up

Institutet för Ekonomisk forskning är det för ekonomiämnena gemensamma forskningsinstitutet och del av Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet.

Vår enhet bedriver forskning inom beroende av alkohol, narkotika, läkemedel, och inom spelberoende och andra icke-substansberoenden. Vår forskning har också ett uttalat fokus på samsjuklighet och andra problem med nära koppling till beroende, inkusive psykiatriska sjukdomar, kroppsliga sjukdomar, sociala problem och kriminalitet. Forskningen är dels klinisk och dels befolkningsbaserad, och bedrivsOur unit conducts research related to alcohol, drug and prescription drug disorders, and gambling disorder and other non-substance-related addictive conditions. Also, a major focus of our research is the co-morbidity and other related problems, including psychiatric disorders, physical disorders, social complications and criminal behavior. Our research is clinical and epidemiological, and projects
