15 maj 2025 15:15 till 17:00 | Föreläsning Professor Wendy Lower will explore the impact of shocking images as visual testimony of war and genocide, and as a galvanizing force in the human rights revolution before, during and after the Holocaust. Atrocity photographs are used as evidence in criminal investigations, but they are also creative expressions of perpetrators, victims and bystanders, as
Delivery of antigenic peptides to antigen presenting cells (APCs) such as dendritic cells (DCs) using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is an attractive approach to evoke antigen-specific T cell activation and improve drug efficacy. Peptide linkage to mAbs has previously been achieved through genetic fusion, chemical conjugation, nano-engineered platforms and high affinity peptides. In this study, we h
The gene encoding a β-glucosidase originating from the extreme thermophile Thermotoga neopolitana has been cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The aim was to produce a thermostable enzyme that could be used to remove sugar residues from glucosylated natural products classified as flavonoids by applying a method combining extraction in hot pressurized water with enzymatic hydrolysis. The β-g
The anaerobic digestion process results in the production of biogas from a large diversity of organic residues, which can be used as an alternate source of energy generation and for waste management. However, the biogas production technology is not exploited efficiently due to the characteristics of raw materials, poor methane yields, process instability, limited raw materials and lack of knowledg
This work is primarily about the development, validation and application of computer simulation models for intrinsically disordered proteins, both in solution and in the presence of uniformly charged, ideal surfaces. The models in question are either coarse-grained or atomistic in nature, and their applications are dependent on the specific purpose of each study. Both, Metropolis Monte Carlo and m

Min uppstas syftar till att få reda på de argument som låg till grund för kriminaliseringen av sexuell tjänst som kom 1999 och varför endast köparen kriminaliserades. Min uppsats sträcker sig över en lång period från 1977-2011. Vad jag fann var att samhället i stort gick från en syn på att prostitution var ett problem för mannen, kvinnan och samhället i stort till att allt mer rikta in sig på att
We propose a description of nonequilibrium systems via a simple protocol that combines exchange-correlation potentials from density functional theory with self-energies of many-body perturbation theory. The approach, aimed to avoid double counting of interactions, is tested against exact results in Hubbard-type systems, with respect to interaction strength, perturbation speed and inhomogeneity, an
Declining birthrates and infertility are now a common problem in the Western World. Due to the tendency to postpone childbearing an increasing age of women who consider motherhood is generally seen. A factor closely related to female fertility is the ovarian reserve, a term used to designate both quantitative as well as qualitative aspects of the remaining gametes in the female gonads. Despite a n
Pontus Roos var en kreativ och initiativrik person som var övertygad om att praktiska problem inom industri- och tjänstesektorn kunde dra nytta av avancerad ekonomisk analys. Fondens syfte är att årligen dela ut ett stipendium till en doktorand eller en ung forskare i nationalekonomi vid Lunds universitet. Pontus Roos, född den 31 januari 1953, och avliden allt för tidigt, den 13 december 2010, va

The utilisation of biomass instead of fossil resources is an important alternative for the transition into a sustainable society. Biomass, owing to its primary constituents—cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin—has the potential to replace many products that are produced from fossil resources today, including plastics, textile fibres and fuels. To fully exploit this potential, all of the components
What period should credit losses be estimated over in IFRS 9? When the standard on how to account for credit losses moves to an expected loss approach, there is a need to find out how far into the future to look for losses. This is known as the expected lifetime, and I have dived into interpreting how the IFRS 9 standard can be implemented in a model for expected lifetime for credit cards and simi
Stora förändringar och varierad elproduktion har lett till många osäkerheter i elsystemets marknader. Balanseringsverktygen har därmed hamnat i rampljuset med stor inkomstpotential idag och möjligen även långt framöver. Denna rapport visar att det finns stora möjligheter för vätgassystem och batterier att medverka på dessa marknader. En förväntad fördubbling av elproduktion under de kommande 20 årIn order to move away from fossil fuels many governments and industries are focusing their new investments in electricity and alternative fuels such as green hydrogen from electrolyzers using renewable electricity. High investment costs and electricity costs are a hindrance for the future development of a hydrogen economy which can utilize an increasing intermittent power generation. The aim of th
Improved energy efficiency in the housing stock is an important undertaking in the energy transition but is associated with both opportunities and risks. While there are possibilities to reduce energy inequalities in the housing stock, inequalities also risk being aggravated as actions for energy efficiency usually aim at the least energy efficient—and thus sometimes the least privileged—parts of
