Official calls for “failed” asylum seekers to leave Sweden ignore the difficulties and harms befalling stateless people who cannot return to previous countries of residence because they lack citizenship. Stateless people are caught in limbo, a position where they have no prospects of return or of attaining a residence permit in a predictable future. To learn the underlying logics and consequences

X-ray imaging can be improved by utilising the wave-optical properties to extract images of complementary contrast. Normal x-ray imaging relies only on attenuation in the sample, but information about phase shift and scattering of the x-rays can be computed when special conditions are fulfilled.

Sporulation in Ashbya gossypii is induced by nutrient-limited conditions and leads to the formation of haploid spores. Using RNA-seq, we have determined a gene set induced upon sporulation, which bears considerable overlap with that of Saccharomyces cerevisiae but also contains A. gossypii-specific genes. Addition of cyclic AMP (cAMP) to nutrient-limited media blocks sporulation and represses the

There are high demands on companies today to survive when competition is high and that also applies to companies that manufacture ethylene oxide. The raw material in the production of ethylene oxide is ethylene and oxygen where ethylene is the largest cost. To facilitate the reaction a catalyst, which increases the reaction rate, is used. The catalyst has a major influence on the efficiency and ec

The aim of the current work was at development and validation of modeling tools for simulation of pulverised wood flames in furnaces and study how different factors influence on such flames. The numerical model involves different sub-models for the physo-chemical processes, such as, two-phase flow motion, drying, devolatilization and shrinkage of particles, the formation and oxidation of volatile,

Forskningen bedrivs vid avdelningen för infektionsmedicin på BMC i nära samarbete med avdelningen för reumatologi och fokuserar kring nya mekanismer hos neutrofiler (en slags vita blodkroppar) som kan förklara eller prognosticera infektionssjukdom eller infektionskänslighet. Projekten drivs både som translationella studier där vi försöker förklara mekanismerna varför infektionssjukdom uppträder hoOur research is conducted at the division of infection medicine at BMC in close collaboration with the division of rheumatology. The research is focused on new neutrophil mechanisms that can explain or prognosticate infectious diseases. The approach to the projects is either translational, where we try to explain why certain individuals turn ill due to infections, or more clinically focused, where
