Following its original discovery by Flinders Petrie in 1899/1900, the tomb of the 1st Dynasty queen, Meret-Neith at Abydos is currently the focus of a new interdisciplinary project. The project aims to establish Meret-Neith’s chronological position and role within the 1st Dynasty and to better understand, visualise, and archive her monumental tomb complex and associated artefacts. The complex comp

We study how closures of maternity wards affect maternal and neonatal health. Using data on all hospital births in Sweden between 1990 and 2004, we compare changes in birth-related outcomes across hospital catchment areas that were differently exposed to ward closures. Our findings show that the closures increased maternal obstetric trauma but also decreased fetal stress and infant trauma among ne

Imagine a world in which damaged parts of the body – an arm, an eye, and ultimately a region of the brain – can be replaced by artificial implants capable of restoring or even enhancing human performance. The associated improvements in the quality of human life would revolutionize the medical world and produce sweeping changes across society. In this chapter, we discuss several approaches to the f

The Swedish/Icelandic coproduced serial Tunn is [Thin Ice] (2020) offers an insight into current possibilities and challenges of production in the Nordic Arctic region and the involvement of the developing Greenlandic screen industry. By analysing both off- and on-screen elements through a broad screen industry and location-driven approach, the explorative case study illustrates both a region a

This music-sculptural prototype, allows to create new and unique shapes and sounds, to explore and develop

Perovskite thin films hold great promise for optoelectronic applications, such as solar cells and light-emitting diodes. One challenge is the inevitable formation of defects in the material. A thorough understanding of the defect formation and its dynamics has proven difficult based on traditional spectroscopy. Here, we have integrated functional intensity modulation two-photon spectroscopy with a

This dissertation is a study of screen production in and about Greenland from a historical and contemporary perspective. In recent decades, an indigenous screen industry has emerged in Greenland that has otherwise been a destination for foreign production for more than a century. This has created an international production environment where foreign production continues to dominate, while Greenlan

In this blog post, I present an overview of the production of Borgen: Power & Glory with a focus on collaboration and the creation of a ‘plausible’ Greenlandic setting. Furthermore, in discussing how Greenland has increasingly become a location for foreign productions I put this shift into the context of recent developments in majority-minority collaboration in postcolonial settings.

This blog post delves into the global phenomenon of the Danish political drama series "Borgen," created by Adam Price. The unexpected revival of "Borgen" for a new season, with significant Netflix financing, marks a pivotal moment in Danish television. This season focuses on geopolitical tensions involving Greenland, offering a fresh perspective on Danish-Greenlandic relations and broader internat

Objectives: To assess the ability of the International Endometrial Tumor Analysis (IETA)-1 polynomial regression model to estimate the risk of endometrial cancer (EC) and other intracavitary uterine pathology in women without abnormal uterine bleeding. Methods: This was a retrospective study, in which we validated the IETA-1 model on the IETA-3 study cohort (n = 1745). The IETA-3 study is a prospe

This article presents the history of Greenlandic film with a special focus on developments in the 21st century, where an independent film industry has emerged with its own production, strengthened structure and growing ambitions.
