1. Patient involvement and service innovation in healthcare
Sammanfattning : This thesis adds to a stream of research suggesting that healthcare can be more patient centered and efficient by redefining the role of the patient from a passive receiver to a more active and collaborative participant. This may relate to healthcare provision (Anderson and Funnell, 2005; Berry and Bendapudi, 2007; Bitner and Brown, 2008; McColl-Kennedy et al. LÄS MER

This new wave of large-scale agricultural investment has been described as more extensive in scale than previous attempts to promote such large farms. LÄS MER
3. Genus & genrer : forskningsanknutna genusdiskurser i dagspress
Sammanfattning : At the centre of this study lies the question of how research-related media texts contribute to the social construction of sex and gender conceptions when they use research, either as a main source, or to support or comment on specific issues and statements, from the political arena, for example.

4. Simulation methods for hydropower flows : modeling and validation experiments
Sammanfattning : My research project aims for more accurate modeling of the flow in hydropower plants. By accurate modeling, it is possible to try different modifications on existing plants in an affordable manner. Also, entirely new designs can be tested before realization. Hydropower delivers almost 50% of Sweden's electricity demand with a production of 74 TWh. LÄS MER
5. Role of POU/Oct transcription factors in Drosophila immunity
Sammanfattning : In response to infection, Drosophila melanogaster relies on the ability to mount a robust and potent innate immune response, characterized by induction of cellular and humoral processes. While rapid immune induction is of utmost importance, it is equally important to restrict and repress immune gene expression, where and when it is not needed. LÄS MER
