The clinical translation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) holds great potential for personalized therapeutics. However, one of the main obstacles is that the current workflow to generate iPSCs is expensive, time-consuming, and requires standardization. A simplified and cost-effective microfluidic approach is presented for reprogramming fibroblasts into iPSCs and their subsequent different

Våld i nära relationer och särskilt mäns våld mot kvinnor, anses idag utgöra ett allvarligt samhällsproblem. Det finns studier som visar att ungefär vart tionde barn i Sverige någon gång har upplevt våld mellan närstående vuxna. Detta kan få förödande konsekvenser för barnet i form av både fysiska och psykiska skador. Att låta barn bevittna våld eller andra brottsliga gärningar mellan närstående äViolence in close relationships and especially men’s violence against women, is today considered a social problem. There are studies showing that approximately every tenth child in Sweden has ever experienced violence between related adults. This can cause devastating consequences for a child, such as both physical and mental injuries. Letting children witness violence or other criminal acts betwe
This thesis aims to explore the meanings behind rural reading rooms (tushushi) in Yunnan Province, PRC. Rural reading rooms are small libraries attached to the village Party compound in Chinese villages; for the past decade 600 000 reading rooms have been established in administrative villages in China, and now benefit more than 1 billion farmers in what is arguably the world’s most important deve
Reliable information on land cover is required to assist and help in the decision-making process needed to face the environmental challenges society has to deal with due to climate change and other driving forces. Different methods can be used to gather this information but satellite earth observation techniques offer a suitable approach based on the coverage and type of data that are provided. Fe
The Swedish forest is subject to significant pressure from the forestry industry. As a consequence, biodiversity is negatively affected. Sustainability reporting serves as a means for consumers and stakeholders to gain insight into companies' sustainability ef- forts. Reporting on biodiversity is relatively new compared to climate reporting and poses greater challenges in terms of quantificati
AIMS: Diagnosing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains challenging, particularly in older individuals. We hypothesized that machine learning (ML) approaches could improve diagnostic accuracy compared with HFpEF scores.METHODS: We evaluated the diagnostic performance of four supervised ML algorithms (random forest [RF], extreme gradient boosting [XGBoost], support vector ma
The transition toward sustainable energy systems has motivated extensive research into scalable routes for solar fuel generation. Silicon-based photoelectrodes are particularly promising due to their favorable optoelectronic properties, abundance, and compatibility with established microfabrication techniques. Nano-microstructuring silicon can enhance photoelectrochemical performance by improving
The efficiency and durability of Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells (PEFCs) depend on optimizing porous media components such as gas diffusion and catalyst layers. In parallel, the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) has emerged as a powerful tool to model fluid flow, mass transport, and multiphase interactions in complex porous structures. This works provides a concise overview of recent advances in apply
The Circular Economy (CE) concept is widely promoted as a pathway to sustainability, yet its practical realization can appear to be challenging and unclear due to divergent definitions, interpretations and understanding about the implications and goals of a realized CE. Addressing this gap, this study develops the Circular Economy Loop Strategies (CELS) Framework, a synthesizing foundational model
The field of attosecond physics has expanded significantly in recent years, yet experimental facilities supporting attosecond pump–attosecond probe spectroscopy remain rare. Here, we present a newly constructed beamline for the generation and application of energetic, isolated extreme ultraviolet (XUV) and soft x-ray attosecond pulses via upscaling of high-harmonic generation (HHG) in a gas medium
Objectives: To examine the joint effects and mediating role of cardiovascular health (CVH) in the association between social determinants of health and mortality among postmenopausal women. Study design: A nationally representative cohort of 7577 postmenopausal women from NHANES 2003–2018, with mortality follow-up through 2019. Main outcome measures: Social determinants of health were derived from
When it comes to absorbing and emitting radiation, molecules show similar properties as atoms do. A signicant dierence though, is that a molecular spectrum consists of notably more absorption lines compared to an atomic spectrum. The additional lines appear due to the fact that molecules can not only exist in electronic, but also in vibrational and rotational energy states. Each gas has uniquely d
For Those About to Rock... – A study of views of the ensemble repertoire in the aesthetic programme in Swedish high schools In my paper I will present the result of an inquiry made in the aesthetic program in Swedish high schools. The survey covers nine different groups in three different schools in Skåne. As background to my study I have used experiences I have had during my practical workplace t
The present work is mainly focused on the development of enzyme-based bioanalytical devices, which can further be applied as analytical tools for industrial, medical and environmental applications. The first part of the work deals with the practical applications of thermometric biosensors for determination of various sugars (fructose and lactose) in a real samples. Thermometric biosensors possess
