A Ph.D. Interview with Gloria Wu Gloria Wu, a Ph.D. student from Lund University, successfully defended her thesis on April 19, 2024. Coming from a background as a biomedical analyst, Gloria's research dives into the regulation of genes that determine human blood groups. Driven by her goal to make a positive impact in the world, her studies aim to provide insights that could minimize risks linked

Nobel Prize in physics 2023 Physicist Anne L'Huillier is Lund University’s first Nobel Prize laureate. She was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics along with Pierre Agostini and Ferenc Krausz. Anne L'Huillier made a groundbreaking discovery in 1987. By transmitting infrared laser light through a noble gas, she was able to see a large number of what are known as harmonics of light. These were caused

Even though the eclectic paradigm was founded approximately 50 years ago, it remains among the leading frameworks for firms determining whether to engage in foreign direct investment (FDI). The framework asserts that multinational companies (MNCs) only will engage in FDI if they have ownership, location, and internalization advantages. There is currently a research gap pertaining to if there are a

This study explores the role of research and development (R&D) in China's pursuit of increased economic growth and technological leadership. By examining China's initiative "Made in China 2025" (MIC 2025), we analyse how increased investment in R&D can impact the country's long-term economic progress. Our analysis indicates a significant increase in China's R&

Aims: This study compares the associations of Life's Simple 7 (LS7) and Life's Essential 8 (LE8) with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome populations. Methods: This cohort study analyzed 11,487 participants aged ≥20 years with CKM syndrome from NHANES 2005–2018. Participants were categorized into non-advanced (stages 0–2) and advanced (stages 3–

Tapering is a mode of operation of insertion devices that allows the users to perform scanning in a range of photon energies. NanoMAX, BioMAX and BALDER are all beamlines of the 3 GeV MAX IV storage ring and will provide this special mode of operation for their users. In this thesis, the spectra of NanoMAX and BioMAX while operating with tapering were studied and feed forward tables that cancel ou

Though the diffusion of electric vehicle (EV) is high on the global agenda, and there are efforts to speed up the shift: some countries intend to ban the sale of internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEV), and some OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) have announced the goal of electrification, the diffusion of EV is slowly. Technological innovation theory explains that we need to harmonise tec

Global climate change is probably the biggest challenge of our century, and even though research has attempted to uncover the social forces driving the emission of carbon, there is a lack of consensus among scholars. Some empirical research states that carbon emissions are lower in countries where women have higher political status. Others suggest that it is higher income inequality that explains

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a term increasingly used in academic discussions, political debates, media, corporate reports, Non-Governmental Organizations’ (NGOs) reports, and even by civil society and the public. But what does CSR actually mean? What do CSR practices actually constitute? Another increasingly debated issue is the growing power of the business sector and its direct effe

The objective of the degree project was to assess the average thermal transmittance and the climate impact of the façade. The studied prefabricated façade panels were the aluminium frame one, the insulated concrete sandwich and the wooden frame panel. The research approach consisted of five steps: the physical and thermal requirement of the panel was established; then the initial U-Value of each p

This paper addresses the problems associated with ambitious greenhouse gas (GHG) emission cut-off targets set for cities in recent years. Even though many cities have adopted an active approach to sustainability issues and climate change mitigation, they often lack appropriate and effective tools for achieving the cut-off targets. The primary purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the utilisation

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most severe metabolic disease that reached the level of a global pandemic and is associated with high cardiovascular morbidity. Statins are the first-line lipid- lowering therapy in diabetic patients with or without a history of atherosclerotic disease. Although well tolerated, chronic treatment may result in side effects that lead to treatment interruption. Mitochond

To maintain food security under global change, we need to consider the stability of ecosystem functioning into the future, particularly in resource production landscapes such as agricultural pasture. With ongoing climate change, extreme climatic events are predicted to become more frequent and severe globally, impacting crop production. The whole process of farming will become more uncertain, from

Obstetric violence, also known as mistreatment or abuse during childbirth, is gaining recognition in the reproductive justice and global health arenas. Research to date has underscored its global prevalence, long-lasting impacts on individuals, and contributing forms of structural and gendered violence. However, attention is lacking on how discourses about obstetric violence are constructed and di

The European Union’s sustainability reporting framework, which includes the CSRD and the CSDDD, is widely regarded as a logical progression toward achieving the 2050 climate goals. The EU has faced criticism regarding the sustainability reporting directives, primarily due to concerns over the EU’s global competitiveness and the readiness of undertakings to comply. Consequently, there have been inc

Klimatförbättrad betong erbjuder en av byggsektorns mest tillgängliga vägar till minskade utsläpp. Utnyttjandet begränsas dock i praktiken mer av produktionsförhållanden och tradition än av materialet i sig. Betongproduktion står för en betydande del av de globala koldioxidutsläppen. Cement, en av de huvudsakliga komponenterna i betong, går delvis att ersätta med tillsatsmaterial som mald granuleCement production accounts for a significant share of global carbon dioxide emissions, which has made the development of climate-improved concrete a central concern for the construction industry. Replacing part of the cement with supplementary cementitious materials reduces the climate impact, but slows the development of early-age strength, an effect particularly pronounced at low temperatures.
