Du lyssnade säkert på Johan Rockströms sommarprat förra året. Hans radioprogram vände upp och ner på de flestas uppfattning om klimatkrisen. I samband med klimattoppmötet i Paris tog klimatet och miljön upp mycket plats i media. Vilket inte bara är bra, utan fantastiskt. Att kunskap om vad vi gör med vår planet sprids något av det viktigaste vi har att jobba med för tillfället. Med min studie påviOur planet is facing the largest loss of biodiversity since the extinction of dinosaurs (Chiante, 2016). This great loss will affect our ecosystems which in turn means that humankind and our needs are affected. It is therefore important to know what factors affect the allocation of resources between species. In the future this will decide how the conservation work for different species will turn o

Klockan fem på morgonen den 23 augusti år 1900 avrättades den dödsdömde fången Lars Nilsson på länsfängelset i Malmö genom halshuggning.

Direct cell reprogramming converts fully differentiated cells into other cell types by forced expression of defined sets of cell-type specific transcription factors (TFs). This enables studies of biological processes and disease mechanisms in neural cells that today are hampered by limited accessibility of human tissue. Astrocytes are crucial for brain function and their dysfunction is associated

Den här rapporten är en litteraturstudie av gummigranulat, ett material tillverkat av återvunna fordonsdäck. Gummigranulat har blivit mycket uppmärksammat för sina positiva egenskaper i olika typer av anläggningsarbeten, men sina bra egenskaper till trots, så är det inte tänkt att däck ska användas till andra syften än att rulla på vägarna. När däcken nu får ett nytt användningsområde behöver det

This thesis will analyse in detail
