Circular reasoning: exploring the power of non-wellfounded proofs
This project is about non-wellfounded and circular proof systems, particularly in the context of (modal) fixpoint logics. The standard approach in proof theory is to view a proof a...
Stockholm Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease Inflammation Cohort (SCOPIC)
Bakgrund: I Sverige ansvarar primärvården (PV) för 90% av diagnostiken och vården av patienter med kroniskt obstruktiv lungsjukdom (KOL). Diagnosen av kliniskt misstänkt KOL bekrä...
Effects of Zoledronic Acid After a Fragility Fracture: The Fragility Fracture Trial
Background: Each year, fractures affect 95,000 older adults in Sweden. Less than 10% of these adults receive bone-strengthening treatment to prevent new fractures. This low prescri...
TermoNet
Purpose and goal: Purpose was to develop, test and verify new cooperation, the embryo of "ecosystem-based platform value systems" for delivery of heating and cooling to buildings....
Towards new treatments for rheumatoid arthritis in postmenopausal women – targeting a key role for interleukin-17
The peak incidence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in women coincides with the time of menopause and treatment with estrogen is beneficial by reducing both joint inflammation and oste...
Biological mechanisms behind health effects of air pollution exposure from childhood to adulthood
Air pollution is recognized as a serious public health issue worldwide and increasingly associated with adverse health outcomes. Several studies, including ours, have shown that ai...
Bridging the gap between epidemiological modeling and animal health surveillance - the case of Salmonella Dublin in cattle
This proposal concerns Salmonella Dublin in cattle. We will develop computational Salmonella models for use in animal health surveillance. Salmonellosis is the second most common z...
Nya diagnostiska metoder för att avgöra behov av karotiskirurgi vid symtomatisk karotisstenos
Bakgrund: Subocklusion är en karotisstenos som är så tät att artären bortom stenosen minskar i storlek (pga sänkt flöde). Nylig forskning har visat att - Subocklusion är vanligt...
Systematic Assessment of Pharmaceuticals in the Environment, with a Focus on Antibiotics, Endocrine Disrupters and Mixture Effects (SysPIE)
We need pragmatically useful approaches for ranking the ~90% of pharmaceuticals that are as yet uncharacterized for their environmental risks. SysPIE will, for the first time, syst...
Evaluation of the Regulation of Hazardous Chemical Substances in Europe
Projektet kommer undersöka huruvida den europeiska förordningen om registrering, utvärdering, tillstånd och begränsningar av kemiska ämnen (REACH-förordningen) är ett tillräckligt...
Exergaming i hemmet- vårt nästa steg för förbättrad fysisk aktivitet hos hjärtsviktspatienter. En randomiserad multicenterstudie.
Background: The number of heart failure patients is increasing, and patients are living longer at home. As part of the medical treatment patients are advised to be physically acti...
Biophysical Regulation of Molecular Pathways in Developmental Hematopoiesis and Cancer
Understanding mechanisms of blood cell regulation in development and cancer is of enormous clinical value. To study how biophysical cues govern human hematopoiesis, I recently simu...
The Difference Policy Makes: A Policy Feedback Study of the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development
As recently illustrated by the United Kingdom’s decision to leave the EU, current trends of political polarization is partly driven by divides over the EU and EU-associated liberal...
Partial denitrification-anammox for resource efficient and climate-friendly nitrogen removal from municipal wastewater
To minimise eutrophication, nitrogen removal from municipal wastewater is vital. The biological processes used today are energy-intensive and have a large carbon footprint because...
How should the risk of particle formation from lubrication oil be minimised to enable sustainable Heavy Duty Vehicle (HDV) transport systems?
The aim is to address how sustainable HDV transport systems would tackle the emerging issue of the effect of lubrication oil (LubOil) on secondary particle formation (SPF). Focus i...
UNDERSTANDING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ATHEROSCLEROSIS AND FATTY LIVER DISEASE
Bakgrund: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide, with more than 17.9 million deaths annually. Fatty liver disease (FLD) is an emerg...
Petroleum, prices and protests: The impact of climate change mitigation on social unrest
Climate change is increasingly regarded as humanity’s greatest collective challenge, which threatens to permanently alter the foundations of societies across the world. Mitigating...
