Chaperoner – kroppens egna försvarssystem mot neurodegenerativa sjukdomar Parkinsons sjukdom och Alzheimers sjukdom är exempel på neurodegenerativa sjukdomar vars orsak attribueras till aggregeringen av amyloida proteiner. Chaperoner som DNAJB6 har visat sig vara effektiva i att förhindra denna aggregering, och i detta arbete har deras termodynamiska beskrivning undersökts. Proteiner är kroppens bAmyloid proteins are a group of proteins with the ability to form large fibrillar aggregates, identifiable by their cross-β core structure. These aggregates are linked to several different neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease and due to the growing rate of people diagnosed, there is a need to combat these diseases. Aggregation of amyloid proteins is caused

The increase in female labour force participation rate can be considered as the most significant labour market trend taken place over the last 120 years in the United States. However, despite the drastic increase, women’s labour participation has stagnated since the mid-1990s. There is a lack of research about the social aspects of FLFP including how anti-egalitarian views reinforced by media repr

This paper examines relocation of taxpayers during 2000 to 2021 across Swedish local work regions and its implications on the tax system. There exist 290 mu- nicipalities in Sweden, which are divided into 67 local work regions. Relocation is categorised as either relocation within or outside local work regions. Furthermore, a distinction is made between age and income groups in order to capture po

The student group is an emerging target with high potential for both the service industry and municipalities. However, previous studies scrutinizing this segment have been limited despite its significance. The aim of this study is to provide a deeper understanding of how domestic and international students perceive Helsingborg city and to offer insight into the key factors influencing students’ pe

This thesis aims to investigate the advantages and limitations of the lean startup method. Eric Ries published the book The Lean Startup in 2011 and it quickly became popular among entrepreneurs and business developers. However, there is little research on the lean startup method as of today, which has inspired the authors of this thesis to investigate the significance and application of the metho

Purpose: The purpose and aim with this research was to understand how brands successfully can co-opt a social movement; specifically feminism, as part of their brand building-strategies. The phenomenon was explored by comparing one successful case, Libresse’s ‘RedFit’ campaign, with a relatively the less successful case; that is, H&M’s ‘Ladylike’ campaign. Methodology: This study takes a rela

The Eucharist is one of the central rites according to the beliefs of the Christian Church and one of two sacraments in the Lutheran tradition. The purpose of this essay is to inquire into the possibility of creating a eucharistic table within the Church of Sweden where no one is excluded becauce of personal restrictions such as allergy to the communion elements. Through this essay I have done a c

The 1st of August 2018, Denmark became one in the line of European countries that during the last decade have introduced a ban towards face covering in public places. Even though this ban is formulated in a general way, which includes all face coverings that prevent others from noticing facial expressions, the debate surrounding the ban have been concentrated around women who wears full cover veil

Denna syftar till att undersöka de argument som Obama-administrationen uttryckte angående ett amerikanskt militärt ingripande i Syrien till följd av de syriska regimens användning av kemiska vapen år 2013. Under sitt presidentskap uppgav Obama att USA drar en "röd linje" vid användade av kemiska vapen mot civila, men hotet visade sig vara tomt ett år senare när tusentals människor dödadeThis paper aims to examine the arguments proposed by the Obama administration regarding a U.S. military intervention in Syria due to the use of chemical weapons by the Syrian regime in 2013. During his presidency, Obama stated that the He draws a ‘red line’ at the use of chemical weapons against civilians, but the threat proved to be empty a year later when thousands of people were killed in a che

The last decades, far-right political parties made huge advancements in divisive elections in the West with growing anti-refugee and anti-Islam sentiments. There is no doubt that policies in Sweden have emboldened the far-right. The real question is how does this affect the already established lives of children of immigrants that come from a different culture? The purpose of this study is two-fold

In this paper I examine potential implications of how a “Dual-process theory” of the mind can influence ethical theory. It is a theory dividing the brain in two system, an (1) implicit system, as intuitive, automatic and unconscious, and an (2) explicit system, as a deductive and conscious process. Empirical studies seem to indicate that this is how we can understand moral reasoning. It has been p

The authors intend to investigate the opinions of experts and professional with extensive experience within the field of branding, through conducting qualitative in-depth interviews. The thesis is based upon a theoretical revie

Populärvetenskaplig sammanftaaning: För 65 miljoner år sedan slog en extraterrestrisk kropp ner på Yucatán-halvön i södra Mexico. Nedslaget orsakade ett av de största massutdöendena i historien, då bland annat dinosaurierna dog ut. Nedslaget kan ha varit en följd av ett tillfälligt ökat asteroidflöde i inre solsystemet som orsakats av att en jätteasteroid i asteroidbältet mellan Mars och Jupiter bAn impact crater is the result of a collision between a large and a smaller body. On Earth most of the cratering record has been erased because of tectonic processes and weathering. The Moon, however, displays a nearly complete record of impact events over the last 2 Gyr, and evidence of impact cratering events nearly 4 billion years old. The same family of impactors is responsible for the formati

This thesis aims to examine how the EC law regarding asylum and refugees, or more precisely how the notion of “safe countries” and the definition of “refugee” in the Asylum Procedures Directive and the Qualification Directive, affect the Roma minority in Europe. The theoretical framework is based on two theories: One theory is Etienne Balibar’s discussion concerning the European project and how it

I uppsatsen jämförs arbetstagarbegreppet samt regleringen av ”mellangruppen” i svensk och tysk rätt i ett EU-rättsligt perspektiv. Arbetstagarbegreppet är ett kärnbegrepp och är viktigt då en stor del av den arbetsrättsliga lagstiftningen i Sverige och Tyskland endast är tillämplig på arbetstagare. Detta gör att arbetstagarbegreppets tolkning och innebörd får betydelse för vem som omfattas av den The personal scope of labour law in Sweden and Germany is defined by the use of the notion of employee (Arbetstagarbegreppet/Arbeitsnehmerbegriff). The notion of employee is important since a large part of the labour law regulations in Sweden and Germany only cover employees. Therefore the meaning and interpretation of the notion of employee has a great influence on who is covered by labour law an

This essay investigates The Man of Jasmine from German surrealist writer Unica Zürn through the lens of Rosi Braidotti's Nomadic Subject. Furthermore, it questions and elaborates the possibility of a Nomadic Subject in The Man of Jasmine. The result of a nomadic reading on the novel is discussed and estimated in terms of its productivity. I observed a consistency between certain aspects of sur

Olikheter i nationers lagstiftning och mellan olika rättsystem vad gäller restriktioner i hur man värderar säkerhetsrätter där själva säkerheten inte befinner sig i borgenärens besittning har länge försvårat marknaden för finansiering och leasing, särskilt vad gäller högt värderad egendom såsom luftfartsutrustning, rullande järnvägsmateriell och tillgångar avsedda för rymden. Dessutom ger lagstift
