Vår forskargrupp vill förbättra vården för barn och ungdomar med artikulatoriska talavvikelser och avvikande nasal resonans för att förebygga bestående funktionsnedsättning. Fokus ligger på att förbättra bedömnings- och behandlingsmetoder och att öka kunskapen om tal hos olika undergrupper med talavvikelser. Vi fokuserar särskilt på patientperspektivet och på grupper som är i riskzonen för beståenOur research group aims to improve care for children and adolescents with articulatory speech disorders and abnormal nasal resonance in order to prevent permanent disability. The focus is on improving assessment and treatment methods and increasing knowledge about speech in different subgroups with speech disorders. We focus particularly on the patient perspective and on groups at risk of permanen

Mjukdelssarkom utgör en heterogen grupp av ovanliga tumörer och innefattar ett 50-tal olika subtyper med varierande klinisk bild och prognos. Två tredjedelar är höggradigt maligna tumörer och en tredjedel av patienterna avlider i tumörsjukdom. I Södra sjukvårdsregion är vården av patienter med sarkom centraliserad till SUS/Lund. Sarkomgruppen i Lund utreder och behandlar patienter med sarkom och Soft tissue sarcomas constitute a heterogeneous group of rare tumours with some 50 histopathologic types with different clinical characteristics and prognosis. Two thirds are highly malignant tumours and one third of the patients die due to metastatic disease. The care of sarcoma patients in the Southern Swedish health care region is centralised to the Lund Sarcoma Centre. We have a large data ba

Denna uppsats utforskar Protokoll till Konvention nr 29 (P029) och rekommendation nr 203 om tvångsarbete (R203). Syftet med denna uppsats är att svara på följande frågor, vad skiljer Protokollet och Rekommendationen från ILO Konventionerna om tvångsarbete i skrift och omfång samt vilken inverkan kommer Protokollet och Rekommendationen att ha internationellt, nationellt i Sverige och nationellt i TThis master thesis examines the Protocol of 2014 to the Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (P029) and the Recommendation on supplementary measures for the effective suppression of forced labour (R203). The objective of this thesis is to answer the following questions: what differentiates the Protocol and the Recommendation from the Conventions 29 and 105 in text and scope? And; what impact will the Pr

We promote sustainable solutions pursued by public authorities and businesses by assessing governance and management processes, evaluating policy interventions and business models, and exploring visions and scenarios for sustaina

This article analyses the application of the 1972 United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Convention (the WHC) in the context of the armed conflicts that have taken place in the Virunga National Park (the Park), a natural world heritage site in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the DRC). Instead of addressing wartime environmental damage under t

In this paper we seek to reflect on the way in which 'digital cities' later re-emerge as 'smart cities' (both in terms of the approaches and also the actual cities) and what lessons can be learned about the role of ICTs in how they shape urban space. We will focus on looking at how the lack of understanding of the city as a 'place' is often a common factor in the lack of longevity in 'digital city

The brainstem origin of preganglionic fibers to the sphenopalatine ganglion in rat was revealed by the aid of the retrograde axonal tracer True Blue (which does not traverse to a second order neuron) applied deep in the sphenopalatine ganglion or the Vidian nerve on one side. The majority of fibers originate in the ipsilateral lacrimo-muconasal nucleus in the ventrolateral rostral medulla oblongat

Abstract in UndeterminedSpatial data clearinghouses are one of the key features of a spatial data infrastructure (SDI). However, recent research indicates that few national clearinghouses function well, as the spatial data resources available cannot be satisfactorily accessed or optimally used. To improve the functionality, we propose that clearinghouses to be complemented with expert systems and

Understanding the gut-brain-microbiota axis can help us provide a new tool to manage conditions such as Alzheimer’s. However, a major challenge is selectively amplifying the bacterial DNA which is present at a much lower level than the host DNA. In this thesis, we aim to develop a methodology to extract, purify and quantify the bacterial DNA in the brain tissue of mice. The methodology that can be

Proclaiming the successful way forward for Africa to modernize continues to puzzle economists and policy makers. Though the region has experienced the highest growth rates for the past decade, no large-scale structural transformation can be observed. Africa’s continuous failure to industrialize has shown that the conventional model of a country experiencing an agricultural transformation and the r

Chemical cross-linking combined with site-directed mutagenesis was used to evaluate the role of extracellular cysteines and their positions relative to the binding site for the agonist bradykinin (BK) in the human BK B2 receptor. All extracellular cysteines, Cys20, Cys103, Cys184, and Cys277, in the receptor were mutated to serines, and single and double mutants were transfected into COS-7 cells.

Humanistlaboratoriet erbjuder forskare vid Lunds universitet fri tillgång till avancerade instrument och tillhörande metodologisk kompetens för att mäta mänskligt beteende, expertis kring datahantering, samt forskningsförberedande utbildning och användarstöd i en tvärdisciplinär och internationell miljö.

Martin Johansson är forskargruppsledare för den här forskargruppenWe mainly study two important aspects of human kidney disease. First, we study the cellular background for kidney regeneration. The traditional concept that the human kidney lacks a stem cell compartment has recently been challenged by an alternative view, stating that stem cells indeed are localized to the kidney. The issue is thus far from settled and we are currently researching this important
