The Role of Metabolic, Immune, and Neurotrophic Markers in the Etiology of Eating Disorders Using Neonatal Bloodspots
Anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa are serious eating disorders (EDs) with significant morbidity and mortality.Recent genetic research has led to a reconceptualization of anorexi...
Host-Virus Interactions and the Epigenetic Control of Non-Self DNA in Chronic Infections
The research project’s purpose is to explore the intricate dynamics of host-virus interactions.The primary aim is to understand how viral DNA, once integrated into the human genome...
Unravelling the complex biology of sex-bias in autoimmune disease
The autoimmune disease, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), exhibits an extreme sex-bias (female 9:1 male).Genes that escape the process of X-inactivation (XCI) are present in a hi...
Solving the skin health crisis in salmon aquaculture
Salmon aquaculture is increasing in scale and intensity to meet the ever-growing demand for sustainable seafood. However, the sustainable development of the sector is threatened by...
Children in compulsory care in the long run

Tunable Optomechanical Microcavities with Nanofluidic Access for Photochemistry under Confinement
Photochemical and photocatalytic reactions play vital roles in science and technology, from molecule manufacturing to environmental cleanup and solar fuel production. These reactio...
Are we on a path towards equitable oral care in Sweden? The opportunities of policy instruments and upcoming reforms, and the threats of oral care system disruptions and inequity determinants
Research problem and specific questions The Swedish oral care system is facing great challenges when it comes to fulfilling its explicit goal stated in law - oral care provision on...
Co-selection of antibiotic-resistant bacteria by exposure to rare earth elements: An unexpected consequence of sustainable mining practices?
Antibiotic resistance (AR) has become a severe global threat to human health. Both the evolution and transmission of resistance is driven by selection from antibiotics. However, ev...
What does it take to stay?: A discrete choice experiment on teacher’s preferences to stay in the profession and how they align with national reforms
Research problem and specific questionsTeacher retention is a problem for many schools. In some municipalities 15-25% of teachers quit every year. While some turnover is necessary,...
PM-BCell Study: Investigating the effect of air pollution-derived particulate matter on human B cell responses in lung-associated tissues.
Air pollutants, particularly particulate matter (PM), pose a major health risk by infiltrating the body and accumulating in peripheral organs, including immune organs. Our research...
Citizen-led sustainable transition to empower Nordic Energy communities (CiNERGY): Sociotechnical Innovations for Enhanced Policy Instruments, Resilience, and Circularity
Achieving Sweden´s ambitious decarbonization goals requires a transition to decentralized energy systems and the integration of variable renewable energy sources such as wind and s...
Eco-Nfix: Engineering nitrogen fixation in a fast-growing cyanobacterium for sustainable bio-fertilizer production
Nitrogen fertilizer is indispensable in agriculture as plants are unable to use atmospheric nitrogen (N2).Ammonia (NH3) is one of the most produced inorganic chemicals in the world...
Revealing the Molecular Mechanism of Fertilizer Production in Nature for Decentralised Fertiliser Production in Photobioreactors
In this project I will apply fundamental research to develop biotechnological decentralised fertiliser production as a sustainable alternative to the energy demanding Haber-Bosch-P...
Rewrite Birth: a multi-professional intervention to reduce post-traumatic stress after traumatic childbirth experience
Research problem and specific questionsGiving birth is a major life event, often in the most positive regard. Sadly, some have a traumatic birth experience instead. About 20% repor...
