Infectious diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality in the world. Severe infections can manifest in many ways, creating a heterogeneous clinical and molecular disease landscape that renders these diseases difficult to research, diagnose, and treat. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of infectious disease, we apply mass spectrometry-based proteomics to analyze blood plasma samples f

The development and assessment of bio-based wood adhesives face challenges due to the limitations of conventional test procedures, particularly in predicting adhesive performance in real-world applications. This study investigated the mode I cohesive law of two birch wood-biobased adhesive systems, comparing them with conventional fossil-fuel-based systems. The experimental approach, developed dur

Future wireless systems are envisioned to be able to deliver ultra-reliable and low-latency communication.The third generation partner project (3GPP) has identified three different usage scenarios such as enhanced mobile broadband, massive machine-type communication, and ultra-reliable low latency communication.In each of those scenarios, several services and applications can be implemented, e.g.

Group exhibition. Participated with the work Trembling Time (2001).The Orangerie presents a collection of video works that fuse documentary and fiction in an attempt to observe and understand complex entanglements. Emerging from sedimented political and social environments, the artists explore various image-making tools to break through the seen world. Appearing along a circular path in Grüneburgp

Proponents of non-doxasticism often stress the similarity between non-doxastic and doxastic faith. I argue that there are crucial differences which are easily overlooked. These differences become apparent once we pay attention to the inner side of the religious life a non-doxastic faith enables. The non-doxasticist must make extensive use of imagination and pretence to be able to include some comm

The doctorate serves as the cornerstone for academic careers but has also gained importance in other societal sectors. Therefore, the gate-keeping function executed by examination committees is pivotal for the future of academia, as well as the development of the knowledge society. In a recently published study, we have delved into how the assessment practices of examination committees can be unde

The interdisciplinary cooperation project »Summer of the Arts« showed works by the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 recipients of the Villa Massimo’s German Rome Prize in eight institutions in Stuttgart. The Staatsgalerie Stuttgart presented the art created by Yael Bartana, Manaf Halbouni, and Bjørn Melhus during their stays in Rome in dialogue with works from the Staatsgalerie collection.

Aim: To describe what is known about hip problems in individuals with developmental central hypotonia. Method: Searches were conducted in five databases to October 2023. Down syndrome was excluded from this analysis of less well-known genetic diagnoses. At least two reviewers independently screened titles, abstracts, read full-text articles, and extracted data. Results: Of 89 full-text articles, 7

The first aim of this chapter is to argue that Mary Wollstonecraft’s approach to inequalities of property and wealth is a form of “non-intrinsic egalitarianism”. The second aim is to nudge republican political theory in our own time towards accepting this approach as part of what freedom requires. Republican theory is not fit for purpose in our contemporary world unless it acknowledges economic in

Research topic/aim:The digitalization of education is a prioritized field for governments and policymakers all over the world, not least in the Nordic countries. The educational sector is expected to play an important role in the digitalization of society and in fostering digital citizens, and to harness the potential of technology for improving its own practices (ITU, UNESCO & Unicef, 2020).

Under the title THRESHOLDS, the contribution to the German Pavilion 2024 narrates history and the future from various artistic positions. The artistic contribution approaches thresholds, steps, and boundaries.Participated with the work Light To The Nations, 2022-2024:In an act of salvation, the generation ship Light To The Nations carries humans toward new galaxies and planets. Named after a passa

Den diabetiska handen är ett vanligt syndrom som framför allt drabbar individer med förhöjt fasteblodsocker.Karpaltunnelsyndrom, ulnarisnervinklämning i arm­bågen, triggerfinger, Dupuytrens sjukdom och tumbasartros är handkirurgiska diagnoser som är vanliga hos individer med diabetes.Individer med diabetes drabbas ofta av flera av de tillstånd som inkluderas i begreppet »den diabetiska handen«. KiThe term »the diabetic hand« traditionally denotes complications affecting the hand in individuals with diabetes mellitus, such as restricted finger movement, numbness, and pain. Trigger finger, Dupuytren's disease, carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar nerve entrapment, and osteoarthritis of the first carpometacarpal joint are all conditions that are more prevalent among individuals with both type 1 and

Proceeding from an analysis of the social embeddedness of education, and how vulnerable the value of it is to the effects of precarious life situations and inequalities, in combination with how the right to education features in human rights law and discourse, this contribution argues that the obligation to ensure this right equally for all inevitably obligate states to address detrimental social

We invite all interested participants into an exploratory workshop about possible research designs for studying the relationship between educational and professional development in Swedish higher education. The authors’ experience from working in Swedish higher education for a long time is that there are some stories about this relationship that are more frequent than others. The aim of our planne

In the face of contemporary challenges such as globalization, climate crisis and a shifting labour market, digital technology is often presented as a solution and enabler for innovation. This is the case also within the area of higher education (HE), as universities are expected to adjust to societal trends framed as the knowledge-intensive economy, increased individualization, life-long learning In the face of contemporary challenges such as globalization, climate crisis and a shifting labour market, digital technology is often presented as a solution and enabler for innovation.

Proceeding from Gregor Noll’s work on human rights and the undocumented migrant worker – where human rights law is analysed as a perplexing empirical phenomenon in order to understand a bit better why things are as odd as they are – you might easily feel discouraged by the difficulty of it all. Or, you might feel liberated, free to go on an open-ended excavation. This chapter takes that second rou

In this study, we report the degradation of smooth and rough lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from Gram-negative bacteria and of lipoteichoic acid (LTA) from Gram-positive bacteria by peptide-coated TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs). While bare TiO2 NPs displayed minor binding to both LPS and LTA, coating TiO2 NPs with the antimicrobial peptide LL-37 dramatically increased the level of binding to both LPS an

In this essay I analyze how the artefacts of questioning and listening became resourceful in the procedure of excavating the personal and political reasons behind the migration journey my maternal grandmother Voinha embarked on in 1945 from Ananindeua and Belém to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Voinha, who turned 100 years old on April 08th, 2021 and passed away on March 06th, 2022, influenced my own mig
