The keystone species concept holds that certain members of an ecological community, despite their low abundance, exert disproportionately large effects on species diversity and composition. In microbial ecology, experimental validation of this concept has been limited because targeted removal of individual species remains technically challenging. Here, we developed a procedure to test the keystone
This exposition takes as its departure the systemic inertia identified within Western Higher Music Education (HME), where education is driven by skill acquisition in a master–pupil format. Such approaches may hinder the growth of adaptable and reflective musicians. We propose an alternative: student-centred learning inspired by artistic research methods. To explicate this, we draw on findings thro
Background: Rehabilitation after Knee Replacement (KR) surgery often entails an extensive rehabilitation in primary care but evidence-based high-quality guidelines are lacking. There is also a knowledge gap regarding current rehabilitation modalities applied in primary care in Sweden. This study aimed to (I) describe rehabilitation in primary care after KR and (II) explore phys-iotherapists’ perce
The European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) have collaborated to produce these post-resuscitation care guidelines for adults, which are based on the International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Science with Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR) pubished by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR). The topics cover
Objective: To identify predictors of GCA in patients with PMR. Methods: Patients with PMR were identified among participants in two population-based health surveys. Those with a registered diagnosis indicating PMR in national and regional registers (the latter including primary care) were included. Medical records from hospitals and primary care were systematically reviewed. PMR diagnoses were ver
This paper shows a FeFET-based analog multi-level unit cell for computing-in-memory applications for Deep Neural Networks (DNN). The FeFET-based unit cell performs input-weight multiplication with a Back-End-Of-Line (BEOL) ferro-electric HZO FeFET device on top of standard 180 nm CMOS circuits. The unit cell works with a feedback mechanism which combines an in-house FeFET device to store weights a
Climate denial and refusal remain central to the ontologies of far-right political projects in many of the countries most responsible for rising temperatures. This article demonstrates how misogyny facilitates the proliferation of obstructionist rhetoric. Specifically, the People’s Party of Canada’s (PPC) climate discourse is analyzed through a feminist lens anchored in Gramscian theorisations of
Creating thermally stable collagen mimetic peptides (CMPs) is a persistent challenge. Nature leverages covalent crosslinkings to stabilize collagen's signature triple helical tertiary structure and higher-order assemblies. Herein, crosslinkings between levodopa (Dopa) and lysine can covalently stabilize the triple helix in CMPs is demonstrated. Since alkaline conditions catalyze the oxidation of t
Gels formed from milk by renneting or acidification under quiescent conditions may subsequently show syneresis, that is, expel liquid (whey) because the gel (curd) contracts. Under quiescent conditions, a rennet-induced milk gel may lose two-thirds of its volume, and up to 90%, or even more, if external pressure is applied. Often, syneresis is undesired, for example, during storage of products lik
Integrated Continuous Biomanufacturing reduces manufacturing costs while maintaining product quality. A key contributor to high biopharmaceutical costs, specifically monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), is chromatography. Protein A ligands are usually preferred but still expensive in the manufacturing context, and batch chromatography under-utilizes the columns' capacity, compromising productivity to mai
The study provides preliminary results from a case comparison of road safety management in three African countries (Tanzania, Ghana, Zambia) with three EU countries, all with a great track record of excellence in traffic safety and practicing Safe Systems principles (Norway and Netherlands & Sweden), based on document analysis and qualitative interviews. Norway, Sweden, and The Netherlands are
The field of management research on applied artificial intelligence (AI) is growing rapidly as the technology is maturing in industrial applications. Due to the nascent state of the scientific discourse, it is hard to discern thematic focal points or how well managerial and technical topics are integrated. Based on 10,036 publications over 25 years, we map the topic landscape of AI-related managem
This paper describes an application of instant messaging to support extended online participatory workshops. We describe the development and application of Participatory Instant Messaging (PIM) within the context of two projects in Sweden, which both aimed to integrate migrant experiences into policy dialogues and societal awareness. The projects brought together artistic practice, research tradit
We investigated integrative physiological responses to eupnoeic exercise (EX), rebreathing exercise (RB), dynamic apnoea (DA) and dynamic apnoea with cold-water face immersion (DAFI) in 20 healthy participants. Trials involved non-steady-state cycle exercise at 60 W for an average duration of 66 s. With increases in heart rate and stroke volume, EX and RB increased cardiac output compared with bas
Regogörelse för när Lunds universitet 1844 erbjöds egendomen Häckeberga som donation, men på villkor som gjorde att regeringen beslöt att avböja gåvan.
In 2016, the average tax revenue as a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP) was 26.15 percent for OECD countries, but only 15.47 percent for Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Some scholars attribute SSA countries’ weak tax capacity to administrative and technical challenges, their large informal sector, and colonial legacies (Burgess & Stern, 1993; Mkandawire, 2010). Others acknowledge that polit
