Harvey's capital switching thesis is one of the most influential contributions of Marxist geographers, providing a framework for understanding structural determinants of capital flows into urban land and built environments. Harvey's thesis has drawn criticism in subsequent debates for its lack of direct empirical support. Even decades later, several gaps remain. The most comprehensive intervention
Understanding variation in survival and reproduction is key for conservation and management of bird populations. By compiling and analysing data on hatching success (i.e. proportion of nests with at least one hatched egg) from Common Eider Somateria m. mollissima, Velvet Scoter Melanitta fusca and Red-breasted Merganser Mergus serrator, all breeding on a single island in the Baltic Sea, we demonst
We are interested in how gene expression is regulated in the brain and how this process influence neurodegenerative diseases, psychiatric disorders and brain tumors. Our current focus is to study the role of epigenetic mechanisms and microRNAs. Our technical expertise include lentiviral vectors, transgenic mice and stem cells cultures.
Sektionen för muskuloskeletal radiologi bedriver forskning inom utveckling, utvärdering och användande av bilddiagnostiska metoder vid sjukdomstillstånd inom rörelseapparaten. Forskare vid sektionen driver olika projekt syftande till minskning av stråldoser vid användande av datortomografi, utvärdering av värdet av avancerade magnetresonanstekniker såsom användande av 7T ultrahög fältstyrka och anThe section for musculoskeletal radiology conduct research in fields related to the development, evaluation and application of imaging methods intended for diagnosis of musculoskeletal diseases. Our researchers conduct different projects aiming at reduction of radiation dose exposure when applying computed tomography, exploration of the value of advanced magnetic resonance imaging techniques such
Monoamine oxidase (MAO), which exists in two isozymic forms, MAO A and MAO B, is an important flavoenzyme responsible for the metabolism of amine neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. Despite extensive research effort, neither the catalytic nor the inhibition mechanisms of MAO have been completely understood. There has also been dispute with regard to the protonation s
Pufendorfinstitutet är ett tvärvetenskapligt institut med syfte att stimulera till samarbete mellan forskare från olika discipliner inom Lunds universitet. I "Teman" och" Advanced Study Groups" ges forskare från alla universitetets fakulteter möjlighet att tillsammans utforska vetenskapliga problem .The Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies is an interdisciplinary institute with the aim to stimulate collaboration between researchers from different disciplines within Lund University. In "Themes" and "Advanced Study Groups", researchers from all faculties of the university are given the opportunity to jointly explore scientific issues.
Bakteriella infektioner är ett stort globalt hälsoproblem och mer detaljerad kunskap om värd-bakterieinteraktioner är nödvändiga för att kunna bemöta den ökande antibiotikaresistensen. Nordenfelt-labbet använder unik biosensorteknologi tillsammans med avancerad videomikroskopi och bildanalystekniker för att studera tidiga värd-bakterieinteraktioner. Den molekylära sammansättningen av bakterier ochBacterial infections represent a major global health issue and more detailed knowledge about host-bacteria interactions are needed to counteract the rising bacterial resistance to antibiotics. The Nordenfelt Lab uses unique biosensor technology in conjunction with advanced live imaging and image analysis techniques to study initial host-pathogen interactions. The molecular surface composition of
Extensive research is being conducted on magnesium (Mg) alloys for bone implant manufacturing, due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability and mechanical properties. Gadolinium (Gd) is among the most promising alloying elements for property control in Mg alloy implants; however, its toxicity is controversial. Investigating Gd behavior during implant corrosion is thus of utmost importance. In t
