What can artificial intelligence learn from the cognitive sciences? We review some fundamental aspects of how human cognition works and relate it to different brain structures and their function. A central theme is that cognition is very different from how it is envisioned in classical artificial intelligence which offers a novel path toward intelligent systems that in many ways is both simpler an

ObjectiveSelf-management support can improve quality of life, mood, self-efficacy, and physical function following a stroke. Knowledge of how people with stroke understand and experience self-management in different contexts is crucial to developing effective self-management support. This study explored how people with stroke understand and practice self-management during the post-acute phase.Meth

Huvudsyftet med etisk reglering av forskning på människor har alltid varit att skydda dessa. Vissa grupper, såsom personer med nedsatt beslutsförmåga, har setts som sårbara och därför i behov av särskilda skyddsregler. Nyligen har dessa regler kritiserats för att vara överbeskyddande, försvåra viktig forskning, och bryta mot mänskliga rättigheter, såsom FN:s Konvention om rättigheter för personer

This doctoral thesis is concerned with agency in the work of a performer, curator, and composer, and how these agencies are socio-culturally constructed. Grounded in creative practice as primary research methodology, the project builds on feedback loops between creation, analysis, and interpretation. The aim is to better understand the conventional norms that define the roles of composer and perfo

Hos patienter med medelsvår/svår långvarig icke-malign smärta är två av fem patienter förskrivna opioida läkemedel vid undersökning 2015–2017 vilket inte ligger i linje med aktuella behandlingsriktlinjer som avråder från långvariga behandlingar med opioida läkemedel då behandlingsnytta är oklar och risker väl belagda.

In this article, we seek to explain why the Swedish fideikommiss persisted for so long after their equivalents had been abolished elsewhere in Europe. We do this by analysing sources pertaining to abolishment produced by the Riksdag over approximately 150 years. After the ban on creating fideikommiss in 1810, the remaining fideikommiss were defended by emphasizing that they had been created throug

GWAS studies have identified hundreds of loci that associate with obesity and type 2 diabetes. However, the functional relevance of the genetic variants, and their impact on disease or traits, is largely unknown. To address those questions, we applied functional genomics approaches to study genetic variants pertinent to obesity and type 2 diabetes-related traits.In paper I, we demonstrate that rs6

Review of Corinne Péneau, Histoire de Stockholm

Barbus urmianus, from the upper Mahabad River in Lake Urmia basin, was distinguished from B. cyri based on several morphological characters. Our analysis demonstrated very small molecular (COI) differences between both species and mostly overlapping or identic morphological character states. Therefore, Barbus urmianus is treated as a junior synonymof B. cyri.

The number of degrees of freedom is a crucial parameter in many electromagnetic problems. In for example modern communication systems spatial diversity is often employed through multiple beams to enhance capacity and reliability. However, while the degrees of freedom can be computed, their connection to physical quantities is not as easily understood. To address this issue, this paper proposes a s

This special issue collects articles, which aim to re-envision integration, dislodging the previously monodirectional conceptual flow sourced in the Global North. Jointly, the articles pursue a critical scholarship contributing to multicentric knowledge production, disrupting binaries of integrated/nonintegrated, inclusion/exclusion, citizen/non-citizen, or indeed self/other. They evidence ambival

Nuclear medicine and molecular imaging are mostly based on radioactive elements that, when decaying due to an excess of energy, emit radiation in the form of electromagnetic radiation (photons), or by charge-particles (electron, positrons, or alpha particles). The first part of this chapter describes in general the atom and its components and states some definitions important for further reading.
