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

Popular Abstract in Swedish Anpassningen av geofysiska metoder till infrastrukturtillämpningar är en viktig del i utvecklingen av geoteknisk förundersökningsmetodik. Det som här benämns geotekniska förundersökningar hänvisar till alla undersökningar som görs före eller under konstruktion, alltså sådana som syftar till att stödja och förbättra en konceptuell geologisk modell så väl som sådana som s

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

Complement is a cascade-like system that is part of the innate immune defence. It is an explosive system, potentially harmful also for the host cells, and needs to be strictly regulated. An important down-regulator of complement is C4b-binding protein (C4BP). C4BP contains two different types of subunits, seven identical a-chains and one unique P-chain. The alpha-chains bind to C4b, C4BP's target

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. MAX IV – the most modern synchrotron radiation facility in the world – is now ready to open. Over 2,000 international researchers will use the Swedish-based laboratory each year to conduct groundbreaking experiments in materials and life sciences using the most brilliant X-ray light ever generated. The laboratory enab

In 2017, the European Research Council (ERC) adopted a new approach to making research accessible to a broader audience – creating cartoons. Malin Parmar, a professor of cellular neuroscience at Lund University and recipient of an ERC grant, is one of the Swedish researchers whose research formed the basis for an ERCcOMICS cartoon. The last episode in a series of ten has now been published. A Cell

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Arctic climate change research relies on field measurements and samples that are too scarce, and patchy at best, according to a comprehensive review study from Lund University in Sweden. The researchers looked at thousands of scientific studies, and found that around 30% of cited studies were clustered around only two

cGMP interactors play a role in several pathologies and may be targets for cGMP analog-based drugs, but the success of targeting depends on the biochemical stereospecificity between the cGMP-analog and the interactor. The stereospecificity between general cGMP analogs—or such that are selectivity-modified to obtain, for example, inhibitory actions on a specific target, like the cGMP-dependent prot
