Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) of cancer cells involves loss of epithelial polarity and adhesiveness, and gain of invasive and migratory mesenchymal behaviours. EMT occurs in prostate cancer (PCa) but it is unknown whether this is in specific areas of primary tumours. We examined whether any of eleven EMT-related proteins have altered expression or subcellular localisation within the e

This thesis investigates visual attention during decision-making in natural environments in four different studies. The first study demonstrated that decisions in the supermarket were suboptimal and this did not seem to relate to the amount of products attended to or the amount of time spent on each product. Consumers also failed to look at a subsection of products that better suited their prefe

Våren 2012 arrangerade Juridisk Publikation i Lund en paneldebatt på temat ”BDSM och samtycke” som jag fick förmånen att moderera. Debatten utgick från det så kallade Malmöfallet som rör åtal för misshandel i samband med BDSMutövning. Denna artikel tar avstamp i den fråga som fick avsluta debatten, nämligen om detta uppmärksammade fall har diskuterats klart. Min ståndpunkt är att genom fallet väck

Background The potential mutagenic effects of cancer therapies and the growing number of young male cancer survivors have given rise to concern about the health of their offspring. Methods We identified all singleton children born alive in Denmark between 1994 and 2004 and in Sweden between 1994 and 2005 (n = 1 777 765). Of the 8670 children with a paternal history of cancer, 8162 were conceived n

This paper outlines possible strategies for evaluation of group relations conferences. Based on comparison of group relations and sensitivity training, the evaluations made of the latter are critically reviewed. Restriction to outcomes, means, variability measures, experimental paradigms and effect-without-process studies, instrumental views on learning and less developed conceptions of groups ham
