AGRONOMIC EDUCATION AT A CROSSROAD: PROVIDING SKILL SETS OR DEVELOPING MINDSETS?

Globally, agrifoodsystems are in constant evolution. In such a context, agronomists have the critical task to act as change agents, enabling agricultural innovation and facilitating the transition towards sustainability. Hence, agronomists should develop a new professional mindset that goes beyond the prescribed roles and fixed duties of a bounded professional. However, it is questionable whether

A Certain Uncertainty: The Duty of Confidentiality in International Commercial Arbitration

Skiljedomsrätt är sedan urminnes tider en använd tvistelösningsmetod. Hänvisningar till skiljerätt finns att hitta i både romersk och gammalgrekisk rätt, så som Digesta, Codex Iustinianus och Novellae. Även Sverige har en lång tradition av kommersiellt skiljeförfarande och metoden har nyttjats som ända sedan Hansan etablerades. Förmodligen har skiljeförfarandet även använts för att avgöra kommersi

NÄR MYTEN HAR BETYDELSE I POLITIKEN

The topic for this research is the Kennedymyth in the context of the American dream. The posed question is, in what way this Kennedymyth in American politics, is part of the myth of the American dream. There are a number of theories regarding myth in the academic world. We refer to theoreticians and what they have written. In the analytical part we see in what way these different theories could co

Option Pricing using Artificial Neural Networks

Neural networks have an increasingly important role in the financial market, by offering a solution to stationarity and non-linearity whilst also providing robustness and predictive power. Options and option pricing are a fundamental area of interest in the daily activities of investment banks, hedge funds and trading firms in the financial market. Implied volatility is the focal point of these op

Children’s education and parents’ mortality – Do parents with highly educated children live longer?

While there exists a large literature on mortality inequalities by an individual’s level of education and other socioeconomic characteristics this thesis looks at the relationship between the children’s level of education and parents’ mortality, which has been relatively less studied. I use longitudinal data from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) for the years 2004-2017

De baptismo: En undersökning av det bibliska vattnets betydelse hos Tertullianus

Humans need water - a fact we have been taught since an early age. The body requires water to function and we through it. We can explicitly say that water is a vital source and element that all living things need. But at the same time, water can be a source of chaos. Stories in the Bible tell of how storms, tempests and floods cause both suffering and death. This paradoxical view of water makes it

Timing of eating across ten European countries - Results from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) calibration study

ObjectiveTo examine timing of eating across ten European countries.DesignCross-sectional analysis of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) calibration study using standardized 24 h diet recalls collected during 1995-2000. Eleven predefined food consumption occasions were assessed during the recall interview. We present time of consumption of meals and snacks as we

Some aspects of statistical inference in systems of equations

The objective of this thesis is to develop a strategy for statistical/econometric inferences applicable to systemwise testing of econometric models. A common deficiency in many applied econometric studies is the absence of statistical diagnostic testing. A model is only as good as the assumptions being used, and if these assumptions are incorrect then the model can be as good as worthless. In the

Hakkorset då och nu : Reflexioner utifrån Lars-Ivar Ringboms artikel i Granskaren 1933

In the Western world of today, the swastika is practically exclusively associated with Nazism, but in reality it is an ancient religious symbol, used in a number of different cults, symbolizing different deities. The oldest finds so far have been made in Ukraine and are between twelve and fifteen thousand years old. About seven thousand years ago the symbol existed in present-day Iran and five tho

A hyperpromiscuous antitoxin protein domain for the neutralization of diverse toxin domains

Toxin-antitoxin (TA) gene pairs are ubiquitous in microbial chromosomal genomes and plasmids as well as temperate bacteriophages. They act as regulatory switches, with the toxin limiting the growth of bacteria and archaea by compromising diverse essential cellular targets and the antitoxin counteracting the toxic effect. To uncover previously uncharted TA diversity across microbes and bacteriophag

Variation in intakes of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron and potassium in 10 countries in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study

Background/objectives: Adequate mineral intake is important for the maintenance of bone health, cellular function and general metabolism, and possibly in the aetiology of cancer and other chronic diseases. This study aimed at investigating variation in intakes of selected minerals across 10 European countries participating in the EPIC (European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition)

Vicariance divergence and gene flow among islet populations of an endemic lizard.

Allopatry and allopatric speciation can arise through two different mechanisms: vicariance or colonization through dispersal. Distinguishing between these different allopatric mechanisms is difficult and one of the major challenges in biogeographical research. Here, we address whether allopatric isolation in an endemic island lizard is the result of vicariance or dispersal. We estimated the amount
