Losing weight can reduce osteoarthritis pain and increase joint mobility. Overweight, obesity, and osteoarthritis More than 1.9 billion adults over the age of 18 are overweight. A BMI (body mass index) of over 25 is deemed overweight and a BMI of over 30 indicates obesity. Being overweight or obese is a risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA). The prevalence of overweight and obesity is steadily incre

We have now closed the application process for the Graduate School. We received many well-qualified applications and would like to thank all those who expressed an interest. We will welcome thirteen new PhD students in January 2025. Currently hosting 25 PhD students from across the University, our Graduate School will welcome an additional cohort of about 10 students for a two-year period, startin

The Combustion Institute and IAFSS Summer School on Battery Safety will bring together doctoral students, post-doctoral fellows and a limited number of Master students as well as distinguished lecturers from around the world. The summer school will be held near Lund University in Sweden between August 24th and 28th, 2026. The summer school will cover topics from an introduction to cell design, fir

Intrinsically proton-conducting comb-like copolymers having side chains tethered with benzimidazole units have been prepared and characterized with respect to their thermal properties and proton conductivity. In the first step of the preparation, poly(4-hydroxystyrene) was synthesized by polymerization of tert-butoxystyrene followed by hydrolysis of the butoxy groups. In the next step, poly(allyl
Research on tourism enclaves has relied mainly on topographical understandings of the phenomenon. The focus has been on the ontic, that which is or exists instead of the relational qualities or properties of tourism enclaves. Topographical conceptions thus tend to simplify enclavic processes and attributes that are much more complex than meets the eye. In this article, we make the case for topolog
Parkinson´s disease is characterized by the accumulation of proteinaceous aggregates in Lewy bodies and Lewy Neurites. The main component found in such aggregates is α-synuclein. Here, we investigate how bovine eye lens crystallin proteins influence the aggregation kinetics of α-synuclein at mildly acidic pH (5.5) where the underlying aggregation mechanism of this protein is dominated by secondary
Endothelial cells (ECs) play a key role to maintain the functionality of blood vessels. Altered EC permeability causes severe impairment in vessel stability and is a hallmark of pathologies such as cancer and thrombosis. Integrating label-free quantitative proteomics data into genome-wide metabolic modeling, we built up a model that predicts the metabolic fluxes in ECs when cultured on a tridimens
Given the tremendous phenomenological success of the Standard Model (SM) framework, it becomes increasingly important to understand to what extent its specific structure dynamically emerges from unification principles. In this study, we present a novel anomaly-free supersymmetric (SUSY) Grand Unification model based upon gauge trinification [SU(3)]3 symmetry and a local SU (2) F× U (1) F family sy
The birth, growth and maturity of industries, sectors and technologies have spurred the curiosity of researchers as well as managers and policy makers for a long time. Intriguingly, the emergence of a new industry is a complex process including many different actors and with a high level of uncertainty related to technology, institutions and markets facing the actors involved. Empirically this b
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has been shown to be comprised of at least two prognostic entities, depending on its resemblance to normal germinal center or activated B cells, using global gene expression profiling. Also, the expression patterns of bcl-6, CD10 and IRF-4 ( also known as MUM1) have been suggested as alternative means of identifying the germinal- and nongerminal center ( activ
The aggregation of proteins into amyloid fibrils via erroneous folding, also known as misfolding, occurs in several diseases. As a consequence, the study of the kinetics and thermodynamics of this process is currently intensely pursued. Here, we study a minimalistic lattice-based model for amyloid formation using Monte Carlo techniques to sample the grand canonical ensemble, where the chemical pot
Two novel Chlamydomonas-like species, belonging to the Moewusii clade, have been de-scribed. The first species inhabits eutrophic and neutral to basic pH waters in Sweden and England. It is easily recognizable under a light microscope due to its morphology (a small green prolate spheroidal shape with a large and truncated papilla at its anterior end, two equal flagella, a single lateral eyespot, a
