För snart tio år sedan disputerade jag på en avhandling med titeln Guds återkomst: En studie av gudsbegreppet inom postmodern filosofi. Föremålet för studien var det förnyade intresse för gudsfrågan som märkts inom europeisk filosofi under 1900-talets avslutande decennier. Från att det vid århundradets mitt närmast varit tabu att uppehålla sig vid teologiska frågor, kom vid den här tiden en avsevä

This paper aims to analyze the impact of different strategies regarding the use of default model settings and embedded data-sets. Initially, the consequences of these different strategies on the results produced are discussed. This is followed by a detailed case-study focusing on the qualitative and quantitative impact that selecting different strategies may produce: whether the user provides thei

Popular Abstract in Swedish Människans kropp består av celler som byggs upp av komponenter som DNA, proteiner, lipider och polysackarider. I DNA finns den genetiska informationen lagrad som gör att kroppen kan fungera. Informationen i DNA omvandlas till proteiner som deltager i cellens biokemiska processer. DNA finns i olika former, dels genomiskt DNA och dels en mindre cirkulär form som kallas plThe main scope of this thesis has been to study and develop new purification methods and also to further develop existing methods for purification to enhance their efficacy. Important parameters in the development of the methods are that they should be suitable for scale-up and possible to be integrated into recovery processes. The studies in this thesis describe that a hydrophobic peptide tag ca

Against this background, this paper investigates the strategies used by Swedish citizens to adapt to (changing) climatic variability and extremes. It off

Intuition is claimed to occur during the incubation phase (Wallas 1926) and to crucially depend on embodied memory and unconscious processing of memories, such as reconstruction and recreation. Two suggestions as to how memor
