Tissue shortage for lung transplantation remains a problem worldwide as lung transplantation is often the only available option with numerous possible complications. Generating lung tissue ex-vivo has been proposed as one way to potentially overcome this shortage. For this, tissue engineering is one potential strategy to either repair, replace or regenerate damaged tissue and organs. In this thesi

Direct Memory Access (DMA) is a feature of computer systems that allows hardware subsystems to access the main memory of the system independent of the Central Processing Unit (CPU). With the rise of big data transfers from/to different I/O devices, the use of DMA controllers has increased significantly. The work of DMA is not limited to only offloading processor data transfer tasks, but it can tra

A commonly used method in remediation projects is to excavate the contaminated soil and treat it in another location or put it in a landfill. The remediation site is then refilled with crushed stones. When the original soil and its initial organisms are removed and replaced with only crushed stones, the environmental properties are changed. This can affect both primary production and the flora and

Entrepreneurship education is becoming ever more popular, especially at Lund University School of Economics and Management (LUSEM), due to entrepreneurship being important to job generation and a source for economic growth and development. Yet, the topic of how learnings from the program are applied in regards to subsequent careers is unexplored as current research mostly highlights what entrepren

Bakgrund: National Early Warning Score (NEWS) är ett bedömningsinstrument som används av sjuksköterskor för att tidigt identifiera avvikande vitala parametrar. Förändring i de vitala parametrarna kan vara en indikation på ett försämrat allmäntillstånd vilket kan leda till död. Sjuksköterskan har omvårdnadsansvaret och besitter därför ett huvudansvar för att uppmärksamma förändrade parametrar. Det

Examensarbetet frågar sig om det är möjligt att bygga attraktiva och ändamålsenliga bostäder för äldre i glesbygdsmiljö. Platsen för denna undersökning är byn Överturingen i Norrlands södra inland. Arbetet analyserar olika former av boendelösningar för äldre och boendeformen “trygghetsbostäder” används som grundmall för programmet till gestaltningsprojektet. Ledstjärnan genom hela processen harThe degree project asks whether it is possible to build attractive and appropriate housing for the elderly in sparsely populated areas. The place for this survey is the village Överturingen in the southern interior of Norrland. The work analyzes various forms of housing solutions for the elderly and the specific form “Trygghetsboende” is used as a basic template for the program of the design proj

The thesis aimed to explore what factors influenced Chinese consumers’ sustainable consumption intention and behavior with regard to children’s apparel.
