The role of disciplinary, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary education in sustainability science : Experiences from my professional journey

Understanding and addressing the complex societal sustainability challenges requires applying novel approaches, devising innovative assessment frameworks, and adopting methods and tools from other research fields. Dr Jagdeep Singh has been conducting inter- and trans-disciplinary research on these challenges impacting academia and society. He has pursued university degrees in Electrical Engineerin

Blood group O is associated with ARDS development but exhibits lower mortality in the intensive care unit–A retrospective multicentre study

Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common cause of respiratory failure in the intensive care unit (ICU). Previous studies have suggested that blood group A increases the risk of developing ARDS following sepsis and major trauma. This study investigated the association between ABO and Rh blood groups and ARDS development and mortality in ARDS. Methods: Patients admitted to

Artificial intelligence and its ‘slow violence’ to human rights

Human rights concerns in relation to the impacts brought forth by artificial intelligence (‘AI’) have revolved around examining how it affects specific rights, such as the right to privacy, non-discrimination and freedom of expression. However, this article argues that the effects go deeper, potentially challenging the foundational assumptions of key concepts and normative justifications of the hu

”Samverkan är ju hela tiden, överallt” : – samverkan som gränsobjekt i akademin

Hur och i vilken omfattning högre lärosäten (universitet och högskolor) i Sverige samverkar med samhället har debatterats i media såväl som i forskningen. Denna artikel belyser den formaliseringsprocess som skett i kölvattnet av nya regleringar och politiska krav på samverkan. I studien analyseras officiella dokument och intervjuer med universitetsanställda vid två svenska lärosäten. Analysen fokuHow and to what extent higher education institutions in Sweden are collaborating with society has been debated in public media and in research. This article highlights the formalisation of the Swedish collaboration policy following a reinforced regulation and political pressures. In the study, official university documents and interviews with university employees at two Swedish universities are an

Merging subspecies distribution: potential Swedish hybrid zone and unknown migratory patterns of common chiffchaff

Hybrid zones represent crucial areas where two populations meet, mate, and produce hybrid offspring, serving as natural laboratories for studying genetic mechanisms underlying ecological traits and reproductive isolation. In Sweden, the common chiffchaff (Phylloscopus collybita) is represented by two subspecies: P. c. abietinus, which colonised northern Sweden through Finland at least 200 years ag

User Accounts: How technological concepts permeate public law through the AI Act

This article argues that through the EU’s technology regulation, technological concepts permeate legal language. Such concepts may function as transplants, even irritants, causing tensions and uncertainties. As technology regulation is increasingly horizontal, i.e. obligating private and public actors alike, these newfound legal concepts remain disconnected from established public law vocabulary a

Israel Unleashed? : A Brazen Campaign Against Iranian Targets Could Backfire

On April 1, Israel launched its latest attack on Iran in the two countries’ ongoing shadow war, with an airstrike that flattened a section of Iran’s embassy complex in Damascus and reportedly killed at least 12 people. Among the dead was Mohammad Reza Zahedi, who headed Iran’s military operations in Syria and Lebanon, where he worked for decades and became a close interlocutor with Hezbollah and i

Crash Courses in Belonging : The Emergence and Progression of a National Orientation in Instructional Materials for Adult Immigrant Language Instruction in Sweden and Denmark ca. 1960-2005

This dissertation explores representations of Sweden and Denmark and how immigrants’ place in Sweden and Denmark are represented in instructional materials for adult learners in the period ca. 19602005. Denmark and Sweden are often pitted as opposites in terms of immigrant incorporation, Denmark representing a more assimilatory stance and Sweden that of a sanctioned multiculturalism. Instead of lo

Using AquaCrop for Irrigation and water productivity assessment of Table grapes in arid region of Mexico

The aim of this work is to use the AquaCrop model for irrigation and water productivity assessment of Table grapes in arid region of Mexico during 2005 and 2006 cropping seasons. The irrigation efficiency was investigated by comparing the irrigation scheduling design used by the farmer to the AquaCrop model recommendations. Data analysis showed that the farmer irrigates almost every day, which res

Lingua-Palatal #1 (e41) for two voices

Lingua-Palatal 1 (1997) utilizes a new model of articulation that uses tongue tip to upper palate constrictions far in excess of traditional phonatory linguistics. It is a teaching piece developed from a new model of articulation that extends the 9-point phonetic model to over fifty points.

Beyond Compliance - Understandning the Role of Clinical Practice Guidelines in Prehospital Emergency Care

Bakgrund Behandlingsriktlinjer omsätter vetenskaplig evidens till praktiska regler. De är en del av sjukvårdens säkerhetsåtgärder och syftar till att göra vården säker, enhetlig, möjliggör kvalitetskontroll och minskar sjukvårdskostnader. Men det är också viktigt att inte förväxla skapande eller hantering av dokument med att hantera faktisk säkerhet. Ett strikt fokus på följsamhet till regler kan Background: Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) translate scientific knowledge into practical rules. They aim to improve safety, ensure consistency, enable quality control, and mitigate rising healthcare costs. CPGs and other written instructions are often the target or result of safety interventions in healthcare, but it is important to avoid the trap of managing documents rather than actual safe

The EAT-Lancet Diet Index, Plasma Proteins, and Risk of Heart Failure in a Population-Based Cohort

BACKGROUND: The landmark EAT-Lancet Commission proposed that a planetary health diet is comprised mainly of plant-based foods. However, studies examining whether this diet is associated with heart failure (HF) are currently lacking. In addition, the potential proteomics mechanism on the association between diet and HF warrants further elucidation.OBJECTIVES: This study aims to both examine the ass

The Russian threat and the consolidation of the West: How populism and EU-skepticism shape party support for Ukraine

Support for Ukraine against Russian aggression has been strong across Europe, but it is far from uniform. An expert survey of the positions taken by political parties in 29 countries conducted mid-2023 reveals that 97 of 269 parties reject one or more of the following: providing weapons, hosting refugees, supporting Ukraine's path to European Union membership, or accepting higher energy costs. Whe

Production of η and η′ mesons in pp and pPb collisions

The production of η and η′ mesons is studied in proton-proton and proton-lead collisions collected with the LHCb detector. Proton-proton collisions are studied at center-of-mass energies of 5.02 and 13TeV and proton-lead collisions are studied at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon of 8.16TeV. The studies are performed in center-of-mass (c.m.) rapidity regions 2.5

Den fria rörligheten i ett upphettat Europa - en kritisk granskning av EU:s gröna giv och strategi för hållbar och smart mobilitet

Following the continual degradation of climate, the issue of climate change has increasingly been integrated in world politics. The European Union has itself implemented climate policies to adverse the tendency. However, the union has also given rise to the principle of free movement, a concept tightly connected to the EU’s carbon intensive transport sector. Research has shown the need for the EU
