Photoreception in Phytoplankton

In many species of phytoplankton, simple photoreceptors monitor ambient lighting. Photoreceptors provide a number of selective advantages including the ability to assess the time of day for circadian rhythms, seasonal changes, and the detection of excessive light intensities and harmful UV light. Photoreceptors also serve as depth gauges in the water column for behaviors such as diurnal vertical m

Exercise and internet-based cognitive-behavioural therapy for depression : Multicentre randomized controlled trial with 12-month follow-up

Background Evidence-based treatment of depression continues to grow, but successful treatment and maintenance of treatment response remains limited. Aims To compare the effectiveness of exercise, internet-based cognitive-behavioural therapy (ICBT) and usual care for depression. Method A multicentre, three-group parallel, randomised controlled trial was conducted with assessment at 3 months (posttr

Extended Producer Responsibility for Closing Material Loops: Lessons from energy-efficient lighting products

The transition to a low-carbon economy requires enabling technologies including energy-efficient lighting products. It is increasingly recognized that a sustainable economy is not only low-carbon and energy efficient, but also resource efficient. Previous research has highlighted the importance and need for increased collection and recycling of lamps, to reduce mercury emissions, to avoid unnecess

What we know and what we don't know about Swedish labor market history : Reflections on Spelets Regler

In this paper we reflect upon the state of Swedish labor market history by using Christer Lundh’s synthesis Spelets regler as a point of departure. In particular, we discuss three main themes: (1) the relationship between economic structures and institutions, (2) power and income distribution, and (3) flexibility and segmentation. In future research we would like to see stronger empirical evidence

WEEE with Value: Experience from Lighting Products

• WEEE with value has traditionally been considered by simple cost -benefit analysis or models, while the reality is more complex.• Lighting products demonstrate that value can also arise from moreholistic considerations of value, and is influenced by multiple stakeholders,time considerations, and market conditions.• Mapping value can help incentivise and plan for value in rapidlychanging products

Amyloid-β Peptides and Tau Protein as Biomarkers in Cerebrospinal and Interstitial Fluid Following Traumatic Brain Injury : A Review of Experimental and Clinical Studies

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors frequently suffer from life-long deficits in cognitive functions and a reduced quality of life. Axonal injury, observed in many severe TBI patients, results in accumulation of amyloid precursor protein (APP). Post-injury enzymatic cleavage of APP can generate amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides, a hallmark finding in Alzheimer's disease (AD). At autopsy, brains of AD and

60 GHz imaging of panels for defect detection using planar scanning

This paper presents imaging results of measurements conducted at 60 GHz, using the planar rectangular near-field technique. Utilizing the stated techniques at higher frequencies enables detection of smaller defects, and allows for a small measurement set-up in a laboratory environment. An algorithm based on the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) has been developed in order to process the data. The paper
