This paper presents part of the results of a three-year project funded by the Swedish research Council. The project focusses a hitherto neglected Arabic medical encyclopedia from the 10th century: al-Mu'aladjat al-Buqratiya (Hippocratic treatment) attributed to Abu al-Hasan at-Tabari. The handbook, which comprises 700 pages and is extant only in handwritten form, can be expected to contribute subs
The aim of the paper is to present films made by Latin American filmmakers in Sweden and which constitute a minor cinema according to David James’ definition. In the early 1980s Sweden had Europe’s largest population of people from Chile. Among these were several filmmakers, intellectuals or other who began to collaborate on film projects in Sweden. This work, with a few exceptions, has been ignor

This work presents the design, fabrication and mechanical characterisation of an integrated optical read-out scheme for cantilever-based biosensors. A cantilever can be used as a biosensor by monitoring its bending caused by the surface stress generated due to chemical reactions occurring on its surface. Here, we present a novel integrated optical read-out scheme based on single-mode waveguides th

Evidence that the galectin family of proteins plays crucial roles in cancer, inflammation, and immunity has accumulated over the last decade. The galectins have consequently emerged as interesting drug targets. A majority of galectin functions occurs by means of cross-linking glycoproteins and by doing so controlling gly-coproteirl cellular localization and residence times. The glycoprotein cross-
The review of Kristina Fjelkestam’s Det sublimas politik: emancipatorisk estetik i 1800-talets konstnärsromaner [Sublime politics: emancipatory aesthetics in nineteenth-century Künstlerromane] focuses on how the author makes use of the sublime as a means to connect three women writers use of the Künstlerromane in their political, emancipatory projects. On the other hand, the review also deals with
The Cerro de Pasco epithermal Cordilleran base metal deposit in central Peru consists of two mineralization stages which are spatially and genetically related to a mid-Miocene diatreme-dome complex. In order to constrain the duration of the magmatic-hydrothermal system at Cerro de Pasco, U-Ph age determinations and Hf isotope determinations have been conducted on single zircon grains. Biotite from
Rational drug design is predicated on knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of the protein-ligand complex and the thermodynamics of ligand binding. Despite the fundamental importance of both enthalpy and entropy in driving ligand binding, the role of conformational entropy is rarely addressed in drug design. In this work, we have probed the conformational entropy and its relative contributi

Måltiderna ska lösas intellektuellt, praktiskt och emotionellt. Flera gånger varje dag. Hur hittar unga familjer matinspiration under vardagens tidspress? Och hur klarar de vardagens ”hot spot” mellan 17 och 18? Att handla mat och komponera vardagens måltider är en ständigt pågående problemlösningsprocess. Den som har ansvaret behöver idéer, inte alltid nyskapande och dramatiska, men ändå någon
