Under rådande Covid-19 pandemi har lungan kommit i nytt fokus då vissa som insjuknar ser ut att få bestående förändringar på lungvävnaden. Förändringar som potentiellt kan utvecklas till lungfibros. I Gunilla Westergren-Thorssons forskargrupp inom lungbiologi vid Lunds universitet, arbetar ett 20-tal cellbiologer, kemister, ingenjörer och läkare med att i detalj studera lungvävnadens mikromiljö oc

Redogörelse för professor Johan Jacob Döbelius försök att inrätta ett under studietiden fritt studentboende (kollegium) satt i relation till Lunds universitets dåvarande övriga stipendieväsende.

Clusters of topologically connected calorimeter cells around cells with large absolute signal-to-noise ratio (topo-clusters) are the basis for calorimeter signal reconstruction in the ATLAS experiment. Topological cell clustering has proven performant in LHC Runs 1 and 2. It is, however, susceptible to out-of-time pile-up of signals from soft collisions outside the 25 ns proton-bunch-crossing wind

A long-standing question in evolutionary biology is how historical biogeographic processes have shaped the current diversity of organisms, especially for highly diverse groups. We study the diversification dynamics and biogeographic processes of one of the most diverse families of Lepidoptera, Geometridae, with over 24,000 described species and a worldwide distribution. Despite the cosmopolitan di

Biografisk skiss rörande den av allt att döma förste lundastudenten av delvis utomeuropeisk härkomst, Hans Wilhelm Lindstedt (c:a 1759-?) med anledning av 250-årsminnet av hans inskrivning.

Froth flotation is a common unit operation used in mineral processing. It serves to separate valuable mineral particles from worthless gangue particles in finely ground ores. The valuable mineral particles are hydrophobic and attach to bubbles of air injected into the pulp. This creates bubble-particle aggregates that rise to the top of the flotation column where they accumulate to a froth or foam

A Slow Sand Filter (SSF) consists of biofilm attached to saturated packed sand with supernatant water on top, through which water flows by gravity. SSFs are used in the production of drinking water to improve water quality and remove pathogens, and, as they use biological filtration via the microbes present in the biofilm, they are simple and cheap to construct. A drawback of SSFs is that the diff

Narrativ medicin och medicinsk humaniora är två närliggande akademiska fält som båda på olika sätt möjliggör interdisciplinära möten mellan medicin och humanvetenskaperna, och som är på framväxt sedan ett par decennier både internationellt och i Sverige. De två fälten har olika fokus, men också många överlappande intressen. I den här artikeln tecknas konturerna av medicinsk humaniora och narrativ

The circular economy (CE) challenges the traditional linear economic model by emphasizing the importance of resource efficiency, recycling, and regeneration in society. However, the role of gender in CE practices remains underexplored. This article presents a systematic literature review on how gender dynamics intersect with CE, highlighting the implications of gendered labor distribution, access

Intersectional multilevel analysis of individual heterogeneity and discriminatory accuracy (I-MAIHDA) is an innovative approach for investigating inequalities, including intersectional inequalities in health, disease, psychosocial, socioeconomic, and other outcomes. I-MAIHDA and related MAIHDA approaches have conceptual and methodological advantages over conventional single-level regression analys

Viking Age silver is a useful tool for tracing various aspects of the society. Contact networks, trade organization, society structure, economic variation etc. This paper concentrates on the so-called Permian rings, which appear in Scandinavian silver hoards from Early Viking Age. Their main concentration is, however, in the regions west of the Ural Mountains in Russia. As the rings found in Russi

Source code analysis is ubiquitous in the development of software tools, for example in compilers to detect compile-time errors and possible optimizations, inIDEs to provide interactive coding assistance, and in stand-alone analysis tools todetect bugs. There are several techniques that have been developed to help theanalysis developer, including one called Reference Attribute Grammars (RAGs).With
