Etzel Cardeña and Lauren Reid investigate how literature can open up different models of thinking about time. These models of time are brought to life by clips from the spectacular films of the one-and-only director and choreographer - Busby Berkeley.

The LIM-only protein Lmo2, originally identified as an oncogenic protein in human T cell leukemia, is essential for erythropoiesis. A possible role for Lmo2 in transcription during erythropoiesis has been investigated. Direct interaction of Lmo2 was observed in vitro and in vivo with the zinc finger transcription factor GATA-1, as well as with the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor

The LMO2 gene associated with T cell acute leukaemia has been used as an example of a gene activated by association with the T cell receptor genes after chromosomal translocations. The gene is shown to encode a LIM protein which is involved in protein interactions and during normal haematopoiesis is necessary for erythroid development. LMO2 has been shown to cause tumours when aberrantly expressed

We sequenced the region encoding the amino-terminal phosphorylation sites of C-MYC in the Ig/MYC translocation-carrying Burkitt lymphomas (BL), mouse plasmacytomas (MPC) and rat immunocytomas (RIC). Mutations affecting the Thr-58 codon or the immediate flanking region were found in seven of the 10 in vitro propagated BL lines. No mutations were found in any of the eight BL biopsies analysed. Germ-

From a lymphoid tumour induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz-[a]-anthracene (DMBA) + methyl-N-nitrose-N-urea (MNU) in an [AKR Rb(6.15) x CBAT6T6]F1 mouse, a macrophage- monocyte line (KT-10) was isolated. Following ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) treatment, a bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR) resistant subline was selected. Serial propagation of this line in vitro in the presence of BUdR (28 months) with periodic cyto

How does film become a political act? That is the question that the artistic research project Sisters! Making Films, Doing Politics revolves around. Taking Hannah Arendt’s ideas about the constitution of the political arena as its point of departure, this dissertation reflects on the aesthetic mechanisms that underlie contemporary strategies for collective and feminist filmmaking. Sisters! Making

Closed-loop positivity of feedback interconnections of positive monotone nonlinear systems is investigated. It is shown that an instantaneous gain condition on the open-loop systems which implies feedback well-posedness also guarantees feedback positivity. Furthermore, the notion of integral linear constraints (ILC) is utilised as a tool to characterise uncertainty in positive feedback systems. Ro

Experiments for measuring gas diffusion through porous alumina ceramics are described. With the gas in scattering media absorption spectroscopy (GASMAS) technique, gaseous oxygen signals are measured continuously during the gas diffusion process. It is experimentally demonstrated that the time-dependence of the transient oxygen signal is described by an exponential curve. Moreover, the effect on g

This article makes a contribution to the critique of market-based mechanisms for climate and energy policy. It explores the environmental effectiveness of market instruments by engaging a broadly conceived “fossil fuel landscape”, or the material, social, and political inertia of fossil energy dependence, as a factor delimiting policy outcomes. The argument is developed through a focus on the idea

We develop a model to study tetraquark production in hadronic collisions. We focus on double parton scattering and formulate a version of the color evaporation model for the production of the X(3872) and of the T4c tetraquark, a state composed by the cc¯cc¯ quarks. We find that the production cross section grows rapidly with the collision energy s and make predictions for the forthcoming higher en

Most animals, including aquatic crustacean zooplankton, perform strong avoidance movements when exposed to a threat, such as ultraviolet radiation (UVR). We here show that the genera Daphnia and Bosmina instantly adjust their vertical position in the water in accordance with the present UVR threat, i.e., seek refuge in deeper waters, whereas other taxa show less response to the threat. Moreover, D

Den här rapporten analyserar bedömningsprocessen och bedömningskriterier i tillsättningsärenden av universitetslektorer vid Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet med särskilt fokus på sju tillsättningsärenden av universitetslektorer vid den Företagsekonomiska institutionen. Rapporten gör en genomgång av regelverket och lokala föreskrifter kring tillsättningar av universitetslektorer samt hur man

Centralt för ett välfungerande och effektivt välfärdssystem är att förmånerna når ut till de människor de är avsedda för. Genom att sätta fokus på ett utslag av så kallad non-take up - nämligen kvinnors beslut att avstå från mammografiscreening - diskuterar denna artikel beslutsprocessen i förhållande till levnadsvillkorens betydelse för ageranden i hälsofrågor ställt i ljuset av välfärdsstatens f

During thermomechanical processing of metals, changes occur in the microstructure of the material which affect its macroscopic properties. By understanding these transformations in the microstructure, it becomes possible to design the processes in a way which yields the desired properties in the finished product. For this purpose, computer simulation plays an increasingly important role.The presen
