Forskningen på avdelningen är mångsidig och länkas samman genom seminariet i medierad kultur och information. Forskningen genomsyras av en kritisk analys av digitaliseringen av kultur och samhälle som inkluderar forskningsteman såsom kulturarvsinstitutioner, informationens infrastruktur, kulturpolitik, förlag, bokmarknad, konsumtion och digitalt vardagsliv, läsning, lyssning och förändrade litteraThe research conducted at the division is multifaceted and include several disciplines, all of which get regularly presented at our joint seminar “Mediated Culture and Information. A critical analytical perspective on the digitalization of culture and society permeates our research, which focuses on themes such as cultural heritage institutions, infrastructures of information, cultural policy and

Thesis purpose: The purpose is to enhance the understanding of the influence inclusion has on Generation Y consumers when utilised in fashion brands. By isolating two areas of interest namely marginalised gender and size, we aim to provide insight into their effects on the attitude and purchase intention. Methodology: A deductive approach and therefore a quantitative research design is chosen. T

Forskning i förpackningslogistik fokuserar på förpackningen och dess inverkan på logistiken. Forskningsområdena går från tillämpad industrirelaterad forsning till teori- och metodikutveckling inom förpackningslogistik. Fokus är för närvarade på hur förpackningen kan användas för att skapa värdeaddition och omfattar förpackningens konstruktionsprocess och hur den kan integreras med produktutvecklinResearch in packaging logistics focuses on packaging and its impact on logistics. The research areas are ranging from applied, industry related research to theoretical and methodological developments for the packaging logistics discipline. The focus is currently on how the package can be used to create an added value and starts with the packaging design process and how it can be integrated with th

Aortoenteric fistula formation is a devastating condition regardless of whether it is primary or secondary (i.e. after previous aneurysm repair) in nature. Patients present with signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal bleeding with or without signs of systemic infection and are often in a very poor clinical condition. Conventional treatment consists of extensive open surgery (extra-anatomical bypas

There is compelling evidence to suggest that estrogen administration to women of climacteric age reduces subsequent myocardial infarction by some 50%. Accumulating data also suggests estrogens confer substantial protection from stroke. Given this rationale, it is prudent to suggest to regulatory bodies that estrogen treatment would have this indication. Estrogens have other well-defined, and less

The incidence of hip fracture in Sweden is substantially lower in immigrants than in the population born in Sweden. Thus, the use of a FRAXA (R) model in immigrants overestimates the risk of fracture, and the use of country of origin-specific models may be more appropriate. Introduction Age-specific fracture and mortality rates vary between countries so that FRAX tools are country-specific. In the

The glymphatic system is a highly polarized cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) transport system that facilitates the clearance of neurotoxic molecules through a brain-wide network of perivascular pathways. Herein we have mapped the development of the glymphatic system in mice. Perivascular CSF transport first emerges in hippocampus in newborn mice,

Within the circular economy, alternatives to fast-fashion include second-hand clothing consumption. The narratives surrounding second-hand clothing have shifted from the stigma of old, dirty, smelly clothing to trendy, sustainable, and bargain items. The environmental benefits of second-hand are realised through the increased use-intensity and avoided production of new garments. However, these ben

Abstract: The FIFA World Cup, together with the Summer Olympic Games, are the two events classified as sports mega-events (SMEs), characterized by their global outreach and different types of costs. Within the SME realm, a paradoxical trend can be seen; they show stronger sustainability agendas, yet generate higher social, economic, and environmental costs. The overarching question is their legaci

The predicament in which we find ourselves today is that many professionals lack a sufficient grounding in formal methods, tools and techniques to enable them to make an appropriate selection for different kinds of problem. This can mean that complexity remains unrecognized and ambiguous problem situations are addressed as if they were clear and straightforward, resulting in inadequate solutions t
