Universities have an important role in moving society towards a more sustainable future. However, this will require us to repurpose universities, reorienting and refocusing the different university domains (education, research, campus, and outreach) towards sustainability. The governance structures and processes used to embed sustainability into the activities and operations of the institution are
IMPORTANCE The clinical management of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers requires accurate, prospective cancer risk estimates. OBJECTIVES To estimate age-specific risks of breast, ovarian, and contralateral breast cancer for mutation carriers and to evaluate risk modification by family cancer history and mutation location. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Prospective cohort study of 6036 BRCA1 and
A resampling method for quantitative MRS is presented that retains absolute concentrations. Averaging the spectra from a subset improved the concentrationestimates via increased SNR. Using short-TE STEAM spectra from human thalamus, the influence of subset size was systematically studied and verifiedagainst conventional bootstrap re-sampling. Even small subsets provided considerably better signal-
Energy used in buildings is responsible for more than 40% of energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the EU and their share in cost-efficient GHG mitigation potentials is estimated to be even higher. In spite of its huge savings potential of up to 80%, achievements are very slow in the building sector and much stronger political action seems to be needed. One important step in thi
Care of older persons in community and primary care differs substantially between European countries, but most countries pursue the concept of “ageing in place”, meaning that most older people do not live in institutions. More and more older people are living alone. Relatives still play an important role in the care of older people, but it differs substantially within Europe, and will probably rem
Self-reported subjective cognitive difficulties (subjective deficits) and rumination are central residual cognitive symptoms following major depressive disorder (MDD). These are risk factors for more a severe course of illness, and despite the considerable relapse risk of MDD, few interventions target the remitted phase, a high-risk period for developing new episodes. Online distribution of interv
In comparison to other human cancer types, malignant melanoma exhibits the greatest amount of heterogeneity. After DNA-based detection of the BRAF V600E mutation in melanoma patients, targeted inhibitor treatment is the current recommendation. This approach, however, does not take the abundance of the therapeutic target, i.e., the B-raf V600E protein, into consideration. As shown by immunohistoche
This study is part of a larger project that aims at balancing the higher education biased picture of knowledge transfer through international mobility, by emphasising workers on lower educational levels in 20th and 21st century Sweden. The present part study examines the views on experience and knowledge acquired abroad among students at six upper secondary schools connected with Swedish multinati
Att få uppleva rörelse är en stark drivkraft för att främja lärande och öka barns delaktighet i vardagen. Eldrivna hjälpmedel används för att ge barn möjlighet till självständig förflyttning men också för att förbättra deras psykosociala utveckling. Metoden Köra för att Lära utvecklades för barn och vuxna med stora kognitiva svårigheter och den är baserad på aktivitet och samspel under övning i el
