The Nordic Society of Paediatric Haematology and Oncology (NOPHO), established in 1984, has been a successful and productive society leading to improved survival rates of childhood leukemias, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) and Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia (AML).
Social conditions, such as income, employment and family resources, matter for health, and health matters for participation in society, employment and economic well-being. These associations are well known.
The Nordic Centre of Excellence «Quality in Nordic Teaching» (QUINT) will focus on teaching quality in Nordic classrooms asking questions like: In what way does teaching make a difference to student learning and engagement across and within school subjects, with and without digital-rich support, in mono- and multi-cultural contexts across the Nordic countries? How can classroom videos be effective tools for teacher training? Does the use of video-technology and other digital systems generate potential for new forms of collaborative research between researchers and practitioners?
The proposed project deals with high-resolution measurements of the lifetime of magnetic excitations in simple (quantum) magnets and of lattice vibrations (phonons) in the nominally well-understood simple-metal superconductors. The results will be compared with model calculations, which are density functional theory (DFT) calculations for phonons, and concepts beyond linear spin wave theory for quantum magnets. The results will be essential for the understanding of basic notions in quantum effects in magnetism, as well as in the foundations of superconductivity in simple metals.
The project provides a first comprehensive comparison of legal frameworks, institutional setups, perceptions and practices of the Nordic multiagency approaches to countering violent extremism.
