Dagens samhälle digitaliseras i en allt snabbare takt i samband med tekniken utvecklas och möjligheterna blir flera. En teknik som på allt senare tid har börjat få uppmärksamhet är maskininlärning, men vad är det och hur kan det användas inom byggbranschen? Vad maskininlärning betyder är att man låter en algoritm gå igenom stora mängder av data för att lära sig om ett specifikt problem. Detta görMachine learning has the potential to improve processes and revolutionizeeconomies on a global level and that is also true for the construction indus-try. Machine learning has started to get attention in recent years as computerpower have increased and the cost has reduced. The purpose with machinelearning is train an algorithm to process large quantities of data for essentialinformation. This can

Religiös omskärelse på pojkar är ett ingrepp som är förekommande över världens alla hörn, liksom i Sverige. Omskärelsen sker oftast när pojken är ung och därav är det i de flesta fall vårdnadshavaren som beslutar att omskärelsen ska ske. Omskärelse är att betrakta som ett utryck för vårdnadshavarens religionsfrihet och dennes rätt att föra över sin tro på sitt barn. Denna rätt innebär dock en insk

Climate policy and Right-wing populist parties are not often associated with each other. The aim of this thesis is to examine four right wing populist parties in the Nordics and their climate policy through a combination of descriptive statistics and idea analyse of political texts. The theoretical outlook was then based on theories regarding party and issue competition. The parties that was exami

In light of the emerging diabetes epidemic, new experimental approaches in islet research are needed to elucidate the mechanisms behind pancreatic islet dysfunction and to facilitate the development of more effective therapies. Optogenetics has created numerous new experimental tools enabling us to gain insights into processes little was known about before. The spatial and temporal precision that

High levels of stress have been documented to impact memory and attention. On the other hand according to previous literature low levels of stress can be helpful in preparing individuals physically and mentally to become active. Relaxation techniques have been proved to reduce stress successfully but there is debate regarding if they have the same positive effects on cognitive performance as well.

The discovery of the incretin hormone glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and its usefulness in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) followed by the finding that dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibition prevents GLP-1 inactivation, led to the discovery of DPP-728. In 1999, studies with DPP-728 established the first proof-of-concept that DPP-4 inhibition improves glycaemic control in pati
