Why internationalisation?There are several reasons for higher education institutions to increase international cooperation and the international elements of education and research. The most important of these is to enhance the quality of activities. There are also political, economic and social/cultural reasons that benefit society as a whole when universities and colleges become more internationa

For regions that are deeply integrated into the global economy, the question of how to remain competitive and resilient in times of uncertainty is a key concern. While strategic coupling is a useful concept for understanding local-global economic dynamics, the idea that a region can simultaneously couple into multiple production networks organised at different spatial scales and that regional acto

The demand for highly purified plasmids in gene therapy and plasmid-based vaccines requires large-scale production of pharmaceutical-grade plasmid. Plasmid DNA was selectively precipitated from a clarified alkaline lysate using the polycation poly(N,N'-dimethyldiallylammonium) chloride which formed insoluble polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) with the plasmid DNA. Soluble PECs of DNA with polycations h

In epidemiologic studies on direct genetic associations, hypothesis testing is primarily considered for evaluating the effects of each candidate genetic marker, eg, single nucleotide polymorphisms. To help investigators protect themselves from over-interpreting statistically significant findings that are not likely to signify a true effect-a problem connected to multiple comparisons-consideration

The base of the world economic pyramid, generally called the base of the pyramid (BoP), consists of four billion people with average per day income of four dollars. While some authors suggest a systems approach to design and develop products and services (i.e. interventions) for BoP markets, a little work has been carried out in this area. Furthermore, a framework to represent interventions in the

This article develops two arguments. First, at a national level in Bulgaria, the human trafficking framework is inoperable for identifying abuses worthy of consideration. By comparing the Bulgarian criminal law definition of human trafficking with the international law definition, I argue that the national criminal law definition is overly inclusive. This state of the Bulgarian criminal law makes

The interest in the evaluation of health effects due to EMF has accelerated in the last decades, mostly motivated by the occupational and environmental exposures to humans by such non-ionizing fields. The increasing exposure to electromagnetic fields has been suspected to contribute to the rising incidence of cancer in industrialized countries Despite detailed analysis which provide a wealth of ac

Attraktion till en potentiell partner har demonstrerats bero på signaler för evolutionära fördelar. Studier på sexuella signaler hos en individ som visar på fördelaktiga egenskaper för potentiell avkommas överlevnad, har ofta fokuserat på fysiska egenskaper. I denna uppsats utforskades aspekter av personlighet som funktion för sexuella signaler och en undersökning tittade på hur självsäkerhet fung

Sverige har vid upprepade tillfällen mottagit kritik från flera internationella människorättskommittéer med anledning av statens hantering av samernas landrättigheter. ILO 169 som stadgar urfolks rätt till land och naturresurser har inte ratificerats av Sverige. Följande studie syftar till att undersöka grunderna för samernas rätt till land samt statens förhållningssätt till dessa landrättigheter.The Swedish state has repeatedly received criticism from several international human rights committees regarding its treatment of Sami land rights. ILO 169, which states indigenous peoples’ right to land and natural resources, has not been ratified by Sweden. The purpose of the following study is to investigate the legal basis for Sami land rights and the Swedish state’s recognition of these right

A portable infrared radiator designed as an interior object Cálido is a portable infrared radiator designed to exist at the intersection of function and craft. The name derives from the Latin calidus, meaning warm, not just physically, but in atmosphere and feeling. That duality defines the project. The steel frame is bent, welded and powder coated. The ceramic tiles are slip cast, glazed and fire

Port state control plays a central role in maritime safety and protection of marine environment and it becomes more significant in protection of seafarers’ rights. This thesis integrates discussion and consideration of different legal aspect of PSC in order to present a comprehensive view on it. First, the legal foundation of port state jurisdiction is examined. It is explored through its elements

Popular Abstract in English Clothing plays an important role in our lives. It serves four main functions: adornment, status, modesty and protection. Wearing popular clothing with one’s favourite decorations, contributes to a person reaching his or her mental comfort. Clothing is also a symbol of status, and was particularly so in ancient times. Moreover, it protects the human body from injury fromClothing evaporative resistance is one of the most important inputs for both the modelling and for standards dealing with thermal comfort and heat stress. It might be determined on guarded hotplates, on sweating manikins or even on human subjects. Previous studies have demonstrated that the thermal manikin is the most ideal instrument for testing clothing evaporative resistance. However, the repea

Vaknar du en morgon och vet att tillämpad kulturanalys är din kall? Förmodligen inte. För många studenter växer intresset för kultur fram gradvis, ofta genom studier i andra ämnen. För Eleonora Narvselius, lärare på masterprogrammet i tillämpad kulturanalys (MACA), var vägen dit allt annat än rak.Do you wake up one morning knowing that applied cultural analysis is your calling? Probably not. For many students, an interest in culture develops gradually, often through other fields of study. For Eleonora Narvselius, Senior Lecturer on MACA, the path was anything but straightforward.
