In our daily work at Certec, we often touch upon legal and ethical issues. This is mostly a good thing – it is important that an organization whose work is closely related to individuals carries on a discussion of ethics and constantly raises questions concerning issues that may be regulated by law. In our discussions, not only do we ask ourselves whether a particular action would be unlawful or u

The PHANToM is an invention from MIT, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which enables tactile communication between a human and a computer. The PHANToM is developed as a general haptic interface. At CERTEC, Center of Rehabilitation Engineering, in Lu

A collection of papers from the celebration of professor emeritus Erik Cinthio's 90th birthday in february 2011. Cinthio established the subject medieval archaeology and four articles concerns his main fields of interest - the subject of medieval archaeology, now transformed to historical archaeology, church archaeology, urban archaeology and agrarian archaeology. The book also includes an introdu

This thesis deals with signatures in sediments on Earth related to the L-chondrite parent body break-up event at 470 Ma. The aim of this thesis is twofold: (1) investigate if the increased flux of extraterrestrial material to Earth, following the disruption of the L-chondrite parent body included larger, asteroid-sized bodies (2) try to develop new methods and tools for finding and classifying rel

nnominate artery and left carotid artery cannulation for antegrade brain perfusion allows accurate bilateral pressure-controlled brain perfusion. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of adverse neurological events and 90-day mortality in 40 consecutive patients undergoing elective aortic arch repair using this technique. Forty consecutive patients underwent elective aortic arch repa

In this study, we used proton-localized spectroscopy ((1) H-MRS) for the acquisition of the neurochemical profile longitudinally in a novel rat model of human wild type alpha-synuclein (a-syn) overexpression. Our goal was to find out if the increased a-syn load in this model could be linked to changes in metabolites in the frontal cortex. Animals injected with AAV vectors encoding for human a-syn

This thesis is an exploratory, descriptive and comparative study of teachers’ focus and teaching methods in Spanish as a third language (L3) in Sweden.

The prospects for patients suffering from systemic small vessel vasculitis have improved substantially in recent decades. The introduction of cyclophosphamide in the 1970s led to a dramatic improvement in survival rates. The discovery of ANCA meant a substantial increase in the number of detected cases, especially among elderly patients, as well as detection at an earlier stage of disease. At the

Let $\scr H$ denote a Hilbert space consisting of functions analytic on a bounded, open, connected subset $\Omega$ of the complex plane. Given certain natural hypotheses on $\scr H$, the author characterizes the finite-codimensional subspaces of $\scr H$ that are invariant under multiplication by $z$, showing that all such subspaces have the form $(p\scr H)^-$, where $p$ is a polynomial whose zero

The penetration of mobile phones in Chinese daily life has made collective actions easier to organize and challenged government censorship. Highlighting this new form of communication, the following essay shows how the traditional mass media’s role as gatekeeper is waning.
