In the present study, two types of micro-pin–fin configurations were fabricated on silicon surfaces by a dry etching method, i.e., staggered pin fins (#1) and aligned pin fins with empty areas (#2). The micro-pin–fin surfaces were then further modified by depositing FeMn oxide nanoparticles (∼35 nm) electrostatically for 8 h and 16 h, respectively, namely #1-8h, #1-16h, #2-8h and #2-16h.

Although the communication aspects of sport and football organizations are receiving in-creased scholarly attention, research from the perspective of fans of such organizations has mostly been neglected. This study problematizes the gap that exists be-tween the current social media communication of football organizations, that tend to be guided by commercial interests, and the expectation of fans
22 maj 2025 13:00 till 14:00 | Seminarium Erin Cory What does it mean to belong, and who gets to decide? In this seminar, Erin Cory will explore migration not only as movement across borders, but as an embodied, storied, and deeply creative process. Drawing from her research at the intersections of migration, media, and identity, Cory will discuss how unconventional methods—such as tattooing and p

This project is an collaboration with Höganäs AB, with the goal to design a light vehicle that meets the demands of the modern commuter, in function as well as in quality and sustainability. The result of the project is a light scooter using Höganäs E-Drive system, with Hydrogen Fuel Cells as the power source. The vehicle is designed to be adaptable to the user, while still being comfortable and e
23 oktober 2025 13:00 till 17:00 | Philip Sandblom, prominent surgeon and Vice-Chancellor of Lund University 1957-68, combined his great interest in art with medical research. His widow, Grace, took the initiative to create a fund for a yearly Sandblom Day. The Sandblom Day is always held in connection with Philip Sandblom's birthday and, in the true spirit of Professor Sandblom, always unites the

By use of a batch microcalorimeter of the thermopile type, heat production was measured in isolated populations of human peripheral blood cells exposed to defined immune complexes formed in vitro. It was found that most of the heat production recorded in whole blood after admixture of immune complexes occurs in the granulocytes. Under these conditions small but constantly higher activation values
Platelets express Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), and this has been shown to be responsible for the thrombocytopenia induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration in vivo. We studied the role of LPS in mediating platelet phagocytosis by THP-1 cells in vitro by flow cytometry. Opsonization of platelets with an IgG monoclonal (W6/32) antibody or with IgG autoantibody-positive sera from patients wi
Targeting the androgen receptor (AR) pathway prolongs survival in patients with prostate cancer, but resistance rapidly develops. Understanding this resistance is confounded by a lack of noninvasive means to assess AR activity in vivo. We report intracellular accumulation of a secreted antigen-targeted antibody (SATA) that can be used to characterize disease, guide therapy, and monitor response. A

Background: 4-1BB (CD137) is a co-stimulatory receptor highly expressed on tumor reactive effector T cells and NK cells, which upon stimulation prolongs persistence of tumor reactive effector T and NK cells within the tumor and induces long-lived memory T cells. 4-1BB agonistic antibodies have been shown to induce strong anti-tumor effects that synergize with immune checkpoint inhibitors. The firs
5 februari 2026 13:15 till 14:30 | Seminarium Presentation by Adam Almqvist, CMES and department of Political Science. When authoritarian regimes adopt liberal international norms—such as anti-corruption standards, human rights treaties, or youth/gender inclusion agendas—they often do so to secure international legitimacy or strategic benefits. But norm adoption can trigger domestic contestation,

Anhedoni, minskad motivation att uppleva lust, är associerad med förändringar i belöningssystemet. Belägen i ventrala striatum utgör den bilaterala nucleus accumbens (NAcc) den centrala noden i detta nätverk, där dopamin agerar som huvudsaklig excitatorisk neurotransmitter. Studier med funktionell magnetresonanstomografi (fMRI) har visat att aktiviteten i ventrala striatum minskar under belöningsbAnhedonia, reduced motivation to experience pleasure, is associated with alterations in the circuitry of the reward system. Located in the ventral striatum, the bilateral nucleus accumbens (NAcc) is the central hub of this network where dopamine acts as the main excitatory neurotransmitter. Studies using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) found that activity in the ventral striatum is de
Streptococcus pyogenes can cause invasive disease with high mortality despite adequate antibiotic treatments. To address this unmet need, we have previously generated an opsonic IgG1 monoclonal antibody, Ab25, targeting the bacterial M protein. Here, we engineer the IgG2-4 subclasses of Ab25. Despite having reduced binding, the IgG3 version promotes stronger phagocytosis of bacteria. Using atomic
