Neuromorphic hardware can mitigate the unsustainable energy demand of artificial intelligence infrastructure. Photonic approaches provide high speed, low energy, and high connectivity but existing solutions have large circuit footprints which limits scaling potential and they miss key biological functions, like inhibition. We report a nano-optoelectronic artificial neuron with at least 100-fold re
Genom sitt beslut i målet Centros, öppnade EU-domstolen för en bred användning av etableringsfriheten för juridiska personer. I huvudsak konstaterar domen att det finns situationer där etableringsfriheten kan åberopas för att kringgå nationell lagstiftning. Sådana kringgående transaktioner kan betecknas som regelarbitrage Det ska förstås som åtgärder varigenom ekonomiska aktörer försöker dra nyttThrough its decision in Centros, ECJ opened up for a wide use of the freedom of establishment for legal persons. In substance the ruling concluded that there are situations were the freedom of establishment can be relied upon in order to circumvent national legislation. Such circimventional transactions can be denominated as regulatory arbitrage. It is to be understood as the actions by which eco
Konflikten i Darfur påbörjades 2003 men först i mitten av 2004 började frågan på allvar att diskuteras i FN:s säkerhetsråd. När FN väl uppmärksammat problemen i Darfur gjordes ändå inget för att stoppa pågående massakrer på civilbefolkningen. I denna uppsats frågar vi oss vad som gick fel i FN och vad som kan reformeras i Säkerhetsrådet för att förhindra att denna situation uppstår igen i framtida
This essay examines European Union policy-making in terms of its aims of promoting the Common Good of its citizens. It uses REACH, the new chemical legislation as a case study, since it is a good example of a piece of legislation which has both environmental and economic consequences, and hence pose great problems for legislators in deciding which of the aims for the Common Good to prioritize. It
Accurate accounting of greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions and removals is central to tracking progress toward climate mitigation and for monitoring potential climate-change feedbacks. GHG budgeting and reporting can follow either the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change methodologies for National Greenhouse Gas Inventory (NGHGI) reporting or use atmospheric-based “top-down” (TD) inversions or pro
Lost Farm Festival transformed an abandoned farm into a global gathering point for grief, anger and creativity – where concerts, rituals and installations turned Sjællands Odde into a new center of the world.
The incidence of melanoma is rising and will require more efficient diagnostic procedures to meet a growing demand. Excisional biopsy and histopathology is still the standard, which often requires multiple surgical incisions with increasing margins due inaccurate visual assessment of where the melanoma borders to healthy tissue. This challenge stems, in part, from the inability to reliably delinea
Transfecting clonal beta cells with large DNA plasmids holds significant promise for diabetes research. Existing transfection techniques like lipofection, viral transduction, and bulk electroporation often face limitations such as low efficiency and cytotoxicity. Nanoelectroporation, which utilizes nanopores or nanostraws and the application of mild electrical pulses, offers a gentle and safe alte
This master’s thesis explores everyday life on the islands Asperö and Brännö, located in the South archipelago of Gothenburg. Although the islands are part of the Gothenburg municipality, their geographical separation creates unique, place-specific challenges, while also the boundedness of the islands' isolation fosters a sense of community among residents. The aim of the study is to gain an u
Uppsatsen har syftat till att kritiskt granska samtyckesrekvisitet i 16 kapitlet 4 § HSL samt 10 kapitlet 8 och 9 §§ SoL (kallad SIP-bestämmelsen), speciellt i relation till individer med nedsatt beslutsförmåga. Lagtext och dess förarbeten har granskats liksom den praktiska tillämpningen av SIP-bestämmelsen. Dessutom har bestämmelsen satts i ett annat perspektiv genom att samtyckesregleringen i SVThis essay set out to critically examine the need for consent regarding the possibility to obtain a coordinated individual plan (SIP). This is covered in a legal provision I refer to as the SIP-provision. It is analysed in relation to individuals with impaired decision-making capacity. The legal provision as well as preparatory works has been explored and there is also the aspect of how the provis
A search is presented for narrow diboson resonances decaying to [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] in the final state where one [Formula: see text] boson decays leptonically (to an electron or a muon plus a neutrino) and the other [Formula: see text] boson decays hadronically. The analysis is performed using an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb[Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] coll
A search for Higgs boson decays to invisible particles is performed using 20.3 [Formula: see text] of pp collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The process considered is Higgs boson production in association with a vector boson ([Formula: see text] or Z) that decays hadronically, resulting in events with two or more jets and
BackgroundDimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is essential for the preservation of liquid nitrogen-frozen stem cells, but is associated with toxicity in the transplant recipient. Study Design and MethodsIn this prospective noninterventional study, we describe the use of DMSO in 64 European Blood and Marrow Transplant Group centers undertaking autologous transplantation on patients with myeloma and lymphoma
This Letter reports a search for a heavy particle that decays to WW using events produced in pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV. The data were recorded in 2011 by the ATLAS detector and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb(-1). WW -> lvl'v' (l,l' = e or mu) final states are considered and the distribution of the transverse mass of the W W candidates is found to be consistent with Standard

This paper reports the results of a search for strong production of supersymmetric particles in 20.1 fb(-1) of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The search is performed separately in events with either zero or at least one high-p (T) lepton (electron or muon), large missing transverse momentum, high jet multiplicity and at least three
A search is presented for dark matter pair production in association with a W or Z boson in pp collisions representing 20.3 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity at root s = 8 TeV using data recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Events with a hadronic jet with the jet mass consistent with a W or Z boson, and with large missing transverse momentum are analyzed. The data are consi
Bladder Exstrophy-Epispadias Complex (BEEC), the severe end of the uro-rectal malformation spectrum, has a profound impact on continence as well as sexual and renal functions. It is widely accepted that for the majority of cases the genetic basis appears to be multifactorial. Here, we report the first study which utilizes genome-wide association methods to analyze a cohort comprising patients pres
The structural basis for the biological specificity of human cystatin C has been investigated. Cystatin C and other inhibitors belonging to family 2 of the cystatin superfamily interact reversibly with target peptidases, seemingly by independent affinity contributions from a wedge-shaped binding region built from two loop-forming inhibitor segments and a binding region corresponding to the N-termi
