Early-Life Conditions and Old-Age Mortality in a Comparative Perspective : Nineteenth Century Sweden and Belgium
Kermack et al. (1934) proposed the cohort explanation in their analysis of the aggregated mortality decline in England, Wales, Scotland, and Sweden. Their conclusion was that reductions in the death rates of the various age groups attained at any particular time depended primarily on the individuals’ date of birth, and only indirectly on the particular year under consideration. The essential effec

Investigating consecutive conflicts of pedestrian crossing at unsignalized crosswalks using the bivariate logistic approach
Pedestrians confront risky situations at unsignalized crosswalks when they are consecutively interacting with motorized vehicles and non-motorized vehicles while crossing. This study aims to investigate the safety of pedestrians with a new perspective that focuses on consecutive conflicts occurring during pedestrian crossing. Based on about 9 h video data collected by an unmanned aerial vehicle fr

Towards a Pedagogy of the Utopian Image
This practice-based PhD project investigates the conditions for a pedagogy of the utopian image in contemporary art and film. It starts from the premise that there is a need for new political and social visions and scenarios. The project asks what role art and artist film, both as a medium and as a social activity, can play in experimenting with and sketching such visions and scenarios – a process
The Diversity of Eyes and Vision
Every aspect of vision, from the opsin proteins to the eyes and the ways that they serve animal behavior, is incredibly diverse. It is only with an evolutionary perspective that this diversity can be understood and fully appreciated. In this review, I describe and explain the diversity at each level and try to convey an understanding of how the origin of the first opsin some 800 million years ago
Health status of individuals referred to first-line intervention for hip and knee osteoarthritis compared with the general population : An observational register-based study
Objectives To describe the prevalence of comorbidities in a population referred to standardised first-line intervention (patient education and exercise) for hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA), in comparison with the general population. Furthermore, we aimed to evaluate if eventual differences were associated with socioeconomic inequalities. Design Register-based study. Setting Primary healthcare, Sw
Developing shared languages. The fundamentals of mutual learning and problem solving in transdisciplinary collaboration
This issue of the AILA Review focuses on transdisciplinarity as the key to developing shared languages in and across domains and professional settings. The relationship and collaboration between researchers and practitioners have long been discussed within and across applied sciences and theoretical disciplines, mainly in the framework of transdisciplinarity (see AILA Review 31, 2018, for a recent
Botanizing the Asphalt : Politics of Urban Drainage
Modern cities are often perceived as the antithesis of nature; the built environment is understood as the transformation of raw and untamed nature into a rationalized human landscape. However, a variety of scholars since the nineteenth century have noted the persistence of nature in cities, not only in providing essential services but also resisting human control. Most recently, urban geographers

Circulating pro-neurotensin levels predict bodyweight gain and metabolic alterations in children
Background and aims: Neurotensin (NT) is an intestinal peptide released after fat ingestion, which regulates appetite and facilitates lipid absorption. Elevated plasma levels of its stable precursor pro-neurotensin (pro-NT) are associated with type 2 diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular mortality in adult populations; no data on pro-NT and metabolic disease are available in children. Aim of the st

Universities and start-up creation by Ph.D. graduates : the role of scientific and social capital of academic laboratories
This paper investigates how the characteristics of university laboratories influence the propensity of Ph.D. students to entrepreneurship, and thus, contribute to the transfer of academic knowledge to society. As determinants of Ph.D. entrepreneurship, we focus on the lab scientific and social capital as well as on the business experience that Ph.D. students acquire during their training period. T
Pedagogical Translanguaging : Theoretical, Methodological and Empirical Perspectives
