  • A proposal for an international Code of Conduct for data sharing in genomics

    Open AccessAmal Matar, Margareta Hansson et al.ARTICLEDeveloping World Bioethics2023

    As genomic research becomes commonplace across the world, there is an increased need to coordinate practices among researchers, especially with regard to data sharing. One such way is an international code of conduct. In September 2020, an expert panel consisting of representatives from various fields convened to discuss a draft proposal formed via a synthesis of existing professional codes and other recommendations. This article presents an over…

  • Holocene dust in East Antarctica

    Open AccessBarbara Delmonte, V Holly L Winton et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2019Cited by: 1References: 10

    In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview of the state-of-knowledge of dust flux and variability in time and space in different sectors of East Antarctica during the Holocene. By integrating the literature data with new evidences, we discuss the dust flux and grain-size variability during the current interglacial and its provenance in the innermost part of the East Antarctic plateau as well as in peripheral regions located close to the T…

  • A perfect society”— Swedish policymakers’ ethical and social views on preconception expanded carrier screening

    Open AccessAmal Matar, Mats G Hansson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Community Genetics2018

    To improve healthcare policymaking, commentators have recommended the use of evidence, health technology assessment, priority setting, and public engagement in the process of policymaking. Preconception expanded carrier screening, according to the World Health Organization's definition, is a novel health technology and therefore warrants assessment, part of which involves evaluating ethical and social implications. We examined ten Swedish policym…

  • Perceptions of predictive testing for those at risk of developing a chronic inflammatory disease

    Kerin Bayliss, Karim Raza et al.ARTICLEJournal of Risk Research2016

    Background: The availability of tests to predict the risk of developing chronic diseases is increasing. The identification of individuals at high risk of disease can trigger early intervention to reduce the risk of disease and its severity. In order for predictive tests to be accepted and used by those at risk, there is a need to understand people’s perceptions of predictive testing. Method: A meta-synthesis of qualitative research that explored …

  • Children’s Views on Long-Term Screening for Type 1 Diabetes

    Open AccessUlrica Swartling, Gert Helgesson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Empirical Research on…2014

    There are an increasing number of medical research studies involving children, including many long-term birth cohort studies. Involving children raises many issues, and little is known about children's own views. This study explored children's views (N = 5,851) on participation in a long-term screening study for type 1 diabetes. The results show that children 10 to 13 years of age have in general a positive attitude to pediatric research and emph…

  • Observed metre scale horizontal variability of elemental carbon in surface snow

    Open AccessJonas Svensson, J Ström et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2013

    Surface snow investigated for its elemental carbon (EC) concentration, based on a thermal–optical method, at two different sites during winter and spring of 2010 demonstrates metre scale horizontal variability in concentration. Based on the two sites sampled, a clean and a polluted site, the clean site (Arctic Finland) presents the greatest variability. In side-by-side ratios between neighbouring samples, 5 m apart, a ratio of around two was obse…

  • Cheating is the Name of the Game - Conventional Cheating Arguments Fail to Articulate Moral Responses to Doping

    Open AccessAshkan Atry, Margareta Hansson et al.ARTICLEPhysical Culture and Sport…2013References: 3

    One of the most common arguments in the discussion on doping is that it represents a form of cheating. In this paper it is argued that common doping-is-cheating arguments based on notions of rule-violation and unfair advantage are inadequate, since they treat cheating as distinct from the structure and the logic of competitive sport. An alternative approach to cheating in sport as regards performance enhancement will be offered based on the ethic…

  • My Parents Decide If I Can. I Decide if I Want to.” Children's Views on Participation in Medical Research

    Open AccessUlrica Swartling, Margareta Hansson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Empirical Research on…2011Cited by: 2References: 1

    The participation of children in medical research raises many ethical issues, in particular regarding assent. However, little is known about children's own views on participation. This study presents results from interviews with children 10-12 years old with and without experience in a large-scale longitudinal screening study. We identified five themes: (1) knowledge about research, (2) a sense of altruism, (3) shared decision-making and right to…

  • High-Resolution Greenland Ice Core Data Show Abrupt Climate Change Happens in Few Years

    Open AccessJørgen Peder Steffensen, K K Andersen et al.ARTICLEScience2008

    The last two abrupt warmings at the onset of our present warm interglacial period, interrupted by the Younger Dryas cooling event, were investigated at high temporal resolution from the North Greenland Ice Core Project ice core. The deuterium excess, a proxy of Greenland precipitation moisture source, switched mode within 1 to 3 years over these transitions and initiated a more gradual change (over 50 years) of the Greenland air temperature, as r…

  • A new Greenland ice core chronology for the last glacial termination

    Open AccessSune O Rasmussen, K K Andersen et al.ARTICLEJournal of Geophysical Research:…2006

    We present a new common stratigraphic timescale for the North Greenland Ice Core Project (NGRIP) and GRIP ice cores. The timescale covers the period 7.9–14.8 kyr before present and includes the Bølling, Allerød, Younger Dryas, and early Holocene periods. We use a combination of new and previously published data, the most prominent being new high‐resolution Continuous Flow Analysis (CFA) impurity records from the NGRIP ice core. Several investigat…
