DNA-Sequencing Platform Based on Light-Guiding Nanowires

From Strands to Wires All the genetic information required to develop and maintain an organism is packed tightly into the molecule known as DNA. Determining the order of the four bases, which are the building blocks of DNA, enables the identification of a DNA segment. Modern disease diagnostics use this identification method, known as DNA sequencing, to inspect genetic integrity. Thus, it is vita

Model-based Analysis of Individual Atrioventricular Node Conduction Dynamics During Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in the world, leading to a significant burden to patients and the healthcare system. It is characterised by rapid and irregular atrial contractions stemming from disorganised electrical activity in the atria. The atrioventricular (AV) node regulates heart rate during AF by filtering electrical impulses from the atria.However, for persistent AF

Beta-Blockers after Myocardial Infarction and Preserved Ejection Fraction

BACKGROUND: Most trials that have shown a benefit of beta-blocker treatment after myocardial infarction included patients with large myocardial infarctions and were conducted in an era before modern biomarker-based diagnosis of myocardial infarction and treatment with percutaneous coronary intervention, antithrombotic agents, high-intensity statins, and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system antagon

Det palestinska kunskapsundantaget

Det råder en ideologisk strid om akademin, där forskning och undervisning attackeras för politisk vinning. Den striden ställs på sin spets genom palestinafrågan. Kunskap om just Palestina verkar vara undantagen den fria akademiska diskussionen.

Between Delivery and Luck : Projectification of Academic Careers and Conflicting Notions of Worth at the Postdoc Level

This paper investigates how early career academics interpret and respond to institutional demands structured by projectification. Developing a ‘frame analytic’ approach, it explores projectification as a process constituted at the level of meaning-making. Building on 35 in-depth interviews with fixed-term scholars in political science and history, the findings show that respondents jointly referre

What we mean as what we said or would have said

We usually mean what we say, but sometimes we do not. When I ironically utter ‘What lovely weather’ on a rainy day, or mistakenly utter ‘Jim is a barn door’ instead of ‘Jim is a darn bore’, I say one thing and mean another. However, although utterances like these are not uncommon, they are greatly overshadowed by the volume of humdrum utterances of ‘There is wine in the fridge’ or ‘I really like n

Gendered Disinformation

This chapter sets the stage for examining gendered disinformation within feminist foreign policy analysis. It traces the rise of gendered disinformation as a security threat, emphasising the transformative impact of digital technologies and social media on the dissemination and logic of disinformation strategies. The chapter explores how authoritarian regimes and actors use gendered disinformation

Impact of October 7 Attack and 2024 War in Gaza on Catholic–Jewish Relations

The 2023/2024 war in Gaza is testing Catholic–Jewish relations. It uncovers three layers of tension in the Church’s relationship with the Jewish people and the State of Israel: First, the differences in the Catholic historical interpretation of the Hamas attack and the war in Gaza in respect to the Jewish one. Second, a theological tension between Catholic teachings on Jews and Judaism and the con

Predicting Single Cell Expression from Multiplex-Immunofloresent Imaging and Bulk-Count Data

Spatial omics allows for the investigation of the Tumor Immune Microenvironment (TIME). Stratifying patients by their TIMEs contributes with insights on tumor immune escape, and help in tumor drug targeting. Tools to investigate such spatial omics approaches suffer from high costs and limited direct clinical applicability. We address this issue by proposing a Machine Learning model which learns to

Swapping resources for change. Transformative efforts of urban farming in selected swedish cities

The global food system is a cause of the worldwide poly-crisis in climate change and ecological decay. Ecological food systems have been emerging to contest the ruinous food production model. This thesis explores one branch of ecological food production: urban farming. Focused on the Swedish context, cases in Växjö, Malmö, and Göteborg were analyzed to examine how urban farms and involved agents n

The blind spots of sustainable construction policies from a growth-critical perspective - A policy analysis of the EU built environment

The buildings and construction sector plays a key role for the European Union to achieve its climate targets. Continuous failure of the sector ́s climate mitigation has brought up a rising discussion about the compatibility of infinite economic growth and long-term socio-ecological sustainability. Grounded in the concept of degrowth, this study analyzes the implicit sustainability understandings a
