Reimagining Teaching Recognition : Motivational Incentives in University Merit Systems

This study explores systems for recognizing and rewarding teaching excellence in higher education, where engagement in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is considered an important merit. Nearly a decade ago, Fanghanel et al. (2016) identified the underutilized potential of teaching recognition as an institutional tool. More recently, Graham (2025) has documented a transformation in u

Classification of 5-bit Binary Light Pulse Sequences Using Photoluminescence of Metal Halide Perovskite Memlumors

A memlumor is an innovative neuromorphic luminescent device with a state-dependent photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) designed for optical neuromorphic computing applications. Metal halide perovskite memlumors leverage charge trapping and photodoping to modulate the PLQY, making it dependent on the excitation light history. Here, we demonstrate the ability of perovskite memlumors to classify t

Adverse Neonatal Outcomes Following Planned Vaginal Birth Compared to Planned Caesarean Birth : A Population-Based Study

AIM: To compare adverse outcomes in neonates born by planned vaginal birth to those born by planned caesarean section.METHOD: This retrospective cohort study analysed data from southern Sweden between 1995 and 2015, using the perinatal revision South Register. Only women with singleton, term (≥ 37 + 0 weeks) and cephalic presentation were included. Planned vaginal birth included all vaginal non-in

Caesarean section rates in public vs private hospitals in Europe : a systematic review and meta-analysis using the Robson ten group classification system

INTRODUCTION: Since the last two decades, there has been a dramatic rise in caesarean sections (CS) throughout the world. This increase has been seen even in Europe, where rates vary significantly from 17% in Northern Europe to 56% in the South. Although, CS can be a lifesaving intervention when medically necessary, non-essential CS are associated with short- and long-term complications for both t

Strategic narratives in public diplomacy scholarship: practices, processes and politics of persuasion

This paper discusses the conceptual relationship between strategic narratives and public diplomacy and its analytical possibilities. It argues that public diplomacy can be understood as a set of persuasive narrative practices; that strategic narratives are central to processes of identity formation necessary for persuasive and credible public diplomacy communication; and that the contestation of s

Helping or Watching it Happen : How Participants Respond to Robot Failures in a Turn-Taking Game

Robot failures in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), though often stemming from technical limitations, can have severe effects on the interactional dynamics between humans and robots. Prior empirical research has led to conflicting findings on how such failures influence user perceptions and the overall success of the interaction. In this study, we investigate how human participants respond to robot f

Ligand-Engineered All-In-One Cu(I) Iodide Complex Enables Near-Unity Photoluminescence and Advanced 3D X-ray Image Reconstruction

High-performance X-ray detectors are essential for 3D X-ray imaging in computed tomography (CT), but conventional systems require high radiation doses to achieve fine resolution. All-In-One (AIO) Cu(I) halide complexes, capable of forming both ionic and coordinate bonds within a single structure, offer efficient scintillation at lower doses, yet their performance remains limited by nonradiative en

Vetenskaplig akribi under tidspress – och andra utmaningar att hantera vid revideringen av en stor historisk ordbok

The first edition of the comprehensive diachronic-contemporary Swedish Academy Dictionary (SAOB) was completed in 2023 after more than 130 years of work. In 2024, a revision project was initiated with the aim of creating a more balanced dictionary by modernizing the content and addressing the major shortcomings. Tis paper discusses the revision process and the challenges encountered along the way,

The missing data for intelligent scientific instruments

Most scientific instruments currently discard rich streams of commands, data and metadata from which AI systems could learn to conduct experiments with expert-level decision-making and troubleshooting skills. Recording and using this data at scale requires rethinking what data to store, incentivizing large-scale cooperation, and determining how to quantify the reliability of such autonomous system

Gratis men lönsamt – Monetarisering av SaaS efter AI-boomen

Den nya AI-boomen sänker kraftigt kostnaden för att bygga mjukvara, snabbar på imitationen och intensifierar konkurrensen inom Software as a Service (SaaS), vilket pressar betalningsviljan mot noll. Denna studie ställer två frågor: (1) vilka affärsmodellsinnovationer och utmaningar kännetecknar monetarisering av gratis digitala tjänster, och (2) hur kan dessa insikter tillämpas på ScanThisWine, etThe new AI-boom dramatically lowers the cost of building software, accelerates imitation, and intensifies competition in Software as a Service (SaaS), pushing willingness to pay towards zero. This study asks two questions: (1) which business model innovations and challenges characterise the monetisation of free digital services, and (2) how can these insights apply to ScanThisWine, a free e-label

Catalytic α-Oxidation of N-Acylated 1,3-Oxazolidin-2-ones with Molecular Oxygen

Introduction: Molecular oxygen is the most common oxidizer in nature. Since it has been part of evolution, it is heavily incorporated into biological systems, the most significant being cellular respiration, glycolysis, and the citric acid cycle. Luckily, molecular oxygen can also be used as an oxidizer in the lab, and with the right conditions, to generate 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds. Background

A theoretical investigation of far-infrared fine structure lines at z > 6 and of the origin of the [O III ] 88 μm/[C II ] 158 μmenhancement

The far-infrared (FIR) fine structure lines [C II]158 μm, [O III]88 μm, [N II]122 μm, and [N III]57 μm are excellent tools for probing the physical conditions of the interstellar medium (ISM). The [O III]88 μm/[C II]158 μm and [O III]88 μm/[N II]122 μm luminosity ratios have shown to be promising tracers of the ionisation state and gas-phase metallicity of the ISM.
