The Roman Empire, although largely a product of warfare, lasted for half a millennium. In many ways it still survives, imbedded in present institutions, explicitly addressed in contemporary architecture and constantly reemerging in literature, cinema and most recently, in computer games. The present course primarily focuses how this big empire came into being and how come that it lasted for so lon
Special attention is paid to institutions and spaces where religious identities were shaped, and in addition to written sources, the course focuses in particular on archaeological remains, art, inscriptions, and papyri. These studies will prepare students for active engagement with issues of crucial importance in the contemporary world. The course ends with a three week trip to Israel that include
Epilepsy is a devastating neurological disorder characterized by synchronous neuronal activity, which manifests as epileptic seizures. It usually develops after an initial insult, such as head trauma or stroke, which triggers the epileptogenic process. During epileptogenesis, the affected brain regions undergo multiple changes in connectivity and gene expression, and among the most affected genes
The collaborations between different media will be emphasized. Main focus will be on contemporary western culture, the latter years of the 20th century and the expressions of postmodern culture, although several episodes in the cultural history of the whole century will be studied historically. Advertising, television, music videos, movies, literature, music etc. will be discussed. Theoretical too
We are investigating how sensory information is transformed into neural signals using the fruit fly and the yellow fever mosquito as a model system.
Sweden's ATMP ecosystem is rapidly expanding, solidifying its place as a key player in Europe. Currently ranking among the top three countries among the EU9 for identified therapeutic ATMP companies, Sweden's strategic investments are further reinforcing its leadership (MSC 2020). This includes ongoing initiatives to establish industrial-scale ATMP manufacturing capabilities, enhancing the country
The convenience that bagged lettuce offers has often coupled with consequence of rapid quality deterioration, especially at home after the consumers open the package. In this study, the quality of bagged lettuce during storage in different packaging and fridge conditions was evaluated. The aim was to understand the problems that consumers encounter while storing bagged salad in the household fridg
In diffusion MRI (dMRI), images are sensitised to water diffusion by the application of magnetic field gradients. Cell membranes hinder the diffusional motion and thereby contribute to the contrast in dMRI. Thus, the diffusion of water molecules is used a probe of tissue microstructure. Data from dMRI is often analysed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which yields image biomarkers that reflec
This project aims to develop incretin therapy as a glucose-reducing strategy in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Its particular focus is to understand the mechanisms of incretin therapy and to optimize its clinical positioning. This mission is achieved by an interdisciplinary approach with complementary studies in subjects with T2D, healthy volunteers and experimental animals.
The theoretical aspects of the course focus on the interaction between three different dimensions of analysis: norms, institutions, and actors. The course studies the way in which actors make decisions, attempt to govern the system and influence outcomes. Secondly, it studies the way in which norms and institutions both limit and enable the behaviour of actors. Two analytical problems are paid sp
It introduces different groups that have made political religion known in recent decades. Furthermore, focus is placed on how people take up issues of democracy, the environment and equality because of religious conviction and on different historical and sociological models for interpreting different forms of religiopolitical activism.
Artificial Intelligence in Cardiothoracic Science was funded 2006. Traditionally, medical decisions are based on the combined strength of clinical facts and the experience of the clinician. A growing understanding of the molecular, genetic and biochemical basis of diseases have greatly increased the degree of complexity in medical decision-making. To identify risk factors in medical registers, a n
In Classical Athens, being at war was more common than peace. The military expenditures were correspondingly large. The main puzzle, however, is not financial, but where the Athenians found the multitude of rowers needed for their ships. It was not until the end of the Peloponnesian War that there were good reasons to use slaves as rowers. The Spartan occupation of Decelea in 413 BCE had profound
