De livsnödvändiga molekyler som kroppen behöver är många. Vissa kan vi själva tillverka, andra behöver tillföras via kosten. Kolhydrater (socker) är ett exempel på dessa livsnödvändiga molekyler. Dess primära uppgift är att förse kroppen med energi, men de har även många andra viktiga egenskaper; såsom cellulär uppbyggnad och cell-kommunikation. Kolhydrater är byggstenar till en rad olika bio-moleProtecting groups, or PGs, are important in synthetic organic chemistry. However, protective group free chemistry, i.e. to manage reactions without the use of traditional PGs, has recently caught the attention for the entire field of chemistry. When working with sugar molecules, it is important to know that the molecule contain several hydroxyl groups. It is thus essential to make sure the sugar

ABSTRACT Background: In the growing body of knowledge on how human environment impacts population health, the transport sector is observed to occupy strategic position. However, the transport corridors equally serve as sources of socio-economic challenges. Such is the case of the transport sector’s contribution to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. In this respect, truckers are observed to carry a disproporti

With the growing market for enhanced security combined with recent advancements in robotic technology, the possibility of integrating these two fields is of considerable interest.

The rising influence of the far right in Europe and the advance of the climate crisis constitute intersecting trends. The AfD in Germany is no exception in gaining discursive and political power in this context of uncertainty. Particularly in the realm of social media and TikTok, the AfD receives unproportionate popularity and visibility, which enable the spread of its ideology-laden discourse and

Klimatpåverkan och dess effekter är ett högaktuellt ämne för alla branscher och industrier särskilt för bygg- och fastighetsbranschen som år 2021 stod för 22% av utsläppen av växthusgaser i Sverige (Boverket, 2024a). Visserligen har det skett en minskning av utsläppen för branschen sedan 2008 men behovet av att bygga nya bostäder är stort samtidigt som byggkostnaderna i Sverige blir dyrare och dyrThe impact of climate change and its effects is a current topic for all industries, especially the construction and real estate sectors, which accounted for 22% of greenhouse gas emissions in Swedenin 2021 (Boverket, 2024a). Although emissions from the sector have decreased since 2008, the need for new housing is significant, and construction costs in Sweden are rising more and more every year. T

This thesis is structured around one central question: This study will determine the extent to which political change in the discourse topics of European Political Groups (EPGs) can be traced in European election manifestos through the use of Structural Topic Modeling (STM). This thesis asserts that there is a significant gap in our understanding of how to assess Euromanifestos and of the macrostr
