A growing empirical and theoretical literature has investigated to what extent socioeconomic inequalities are influenced by the outcomes and characteristics of ancestors prior to the parental generation. This paper contributes by examining multigenerational associations of earnings and occupational status in the entire Swedish population born 1968-1976, amounting to over 200,000 three-generation l
Optimization and electrical control of photovoltaic (PV) and proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer systems are critical for efficient, scalable hydrogen production. Static coupling methods employ fixed electrical interconnections between PV arrays and the PEM stack, which cannot adapt to fluctuating irradiance or temperature. To overcome this, we propose an adaptive reconfiguration optimizat
Electrostatic energy plays a pivotal role in the minimization of the free energy of self-assembling oppositely charged ions. This is a fundamental principle that guides the formation of aggregates and the separation of phases characterized by a stoichiometric balance between the opposite charges. However, this study unveils the self-assembly of catanionic nanotubes from a mixture of oppositely cha
The promise that AI tools will relieve teachers of tedious tasks and liberate time for more ‘valuable’ work with students has become a dominant narrative. However, the implementation of automated technologies raises questions around how human labour is implicated and situated in these processes. From the perspective of maintenance and repair studies we approach the often-hidden labour that teacher
Inhibition of several of the 10 hallmarks of cancer (Hanahan and Weinberg) would result in a broader and more durable treatment compared to current single or combination drug treatments. Galectin-1 and galectin-3 have been proposed to together be involved in all 10 hallmarks, suggesting that development of a combined galectin-1/3 inhibitor would be beneficial. Specificity toward galectin-1 or -3 c
Highlights: What are the main findings? A ~32-year aridity cycle is detected across China through Fourier spectrum analysis of 1950–2022 aridity data. An arid–humid climate divide is revealed by entropy-based climate stability indicators. Recent remote sensing data show a nationwide expansion of surface water bodies and localized groundwater recovery. What are the implications of the main findings
Background: Ipilimumab, a monoclonal antibody against cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), was the first approved checkpoint inhibitor; however, its use is hampered by treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs). ATOR-1015 is a bispecific antibody targeting CTLA-4 and OX40 designed to direct the effect to the tumor microenvironment and thereby improve the response rate and reduce TRA
Engineering risk assessment has traditionally focused on direct impacts to individual assets or systems. However, as society's most notable risks increasingly stem from complex, interdependent systems, conventional methods fail to capture the cascading consequences and deepening uncertainty. Addressing this gap requires developing or extending assessment methods. To guide such development and alig
Ground truth datasets play a fundamental role as reference values in the training and evaluation of machine learning models. This position paper argues that ground truths are not neutral objective measurements that are naturally given, but instead that they are constructed by arrangements of humans and technologies. We argue that the ML community will benefit from articulating and discussing these
The world faces a shared challenge in slowing climate change and mitigating its effects. As part of addressing this challenge, innovation is driving regulatory and non-regulatory building development, product advancement and research aimed at delivering a more sustainable built environment. However, the built environment also needs to be resilient to a wide range of hazards. Sustainability and res
Iridium pincer complexes are among the most versatile catalysts for bond‑activation chemistry, yet their performance is often governed as much by off-cycle speciation and inhibition as by intrinsic reactivity. This thesis investigates how pincer ligand design influences the structure, dynamics, and catalytic behaviour of iridium complexes and their relevance to acceptorless dehydrogenation.InitialIridium pincer complexes are among the most versatile catalysts for bond‑activation chemistry, yet their performance is often governed as much by off-cycle speciation and inhibition as by intrinsic reactivity.

Introduction: Benchmarking colorectal surgery outcomes informs quality improvement. The ESCP CORREA 2022 snapshot audit aimed to assess contemporary colorectal resection practices and short-term outcomes across European countries and beyond. Methods: An international prospective multicentre audit was conducted in which adults undergoing elective or emergency colorectal resection during a 6-week pe
Despite the breadth of change management research, limited attention has been paid to how change management practices are adapted to specific organizational contexts. This review addresses this gap by examining how context is conceptualized in relation to change management. Based on a contingency approach, which underscores that processes and structures of an organization need to be adapted to the
Higher socioeconomic status (SES) is associated with lower mortality. This has been confirmedusing different indicators across several geographical settings. Nevertheless, the mechanismsbehind this association are still under debate. In particular, the timing of the emergence of theSES gradient remains an open question. In this paper, we study the development of SESinequalities in cause-specific m
The rapid advancement of connected and autonomous vehicles has driven a growing demand for precise and reliable positioning systems capable of operating in complex environments. Meeting these demands requires an integrated approach that combines multiple positioning technologies, including wireless-based systems, perception-based technologies, and motion-based sensors. This paper presents a compre
