Cultural networks play an important role in cultural governance: facilitatingcooperation between local and EU policy actors and shaping policymakingprocesses. The network-led, Creative Europe-financed project Cultural andCreative Spaces and Cities (CCSC; 2018–2021) experimented with policy co-creation between civic, cultural, and administrative stakeholders, addressing avariously discussed gap bet
Species of the ascomycetous genus Cladobotryum (Hypocreales, Hypocreaceae) are ecologically and economically important mycoparasites that cause cobweb disease in cultivated and wild mushrooms. Despite their significance as fungal pathogens and producers of bioactive metabolites, the taxonomy of Cladobotryum remains unresolved due to extensive morphological plasticity, complex teleomorph–anamorph c
This article provides a review of the application of stomatal frequency analysis to fossil leaves in the reconstruction of past atmospheric CO2 concentrations. It presents the physiological basis of the method, an overview of its application to leaves of Quaternary age, and an assessment of its potential and limitations. It also includes a description of the successive stages in a stomatal frequen
Children with disabilities and medical conditions are at an increased risk of injury or death during road vehicle transportation. In 2020, a national Australian survey of health professionals and organisations involved in the safe transport of children with disabilities and medical conditions identified a critical need for improved access to training, education, and resources. In response, Mobilit
Fourth-generation synchrotron light sources deliver flux densities up to two orders of magnitude higher than previous generations, enabling X-ray imaging at unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution. This is attractive for non-destructive 4D (3D + time) studies of fast dynamics under in-situ or operando conditions. State-of-the-art 4D X-ray imaging at large-scale facilities relies on tomography and
Background: The prevalence of contact allergy in individuals with diabetes and diabetes medical device (MD) users is unknown. Objectives: This study (Part 1 and 2) aims at describing contact allergy prevalences in diabetes MD users. Methods: Adults with type 1 diabetes from two endocrinology departments were patch tested with the Swedish baseline series (SBS) and a MD series. Contact allergies to
This paper is concerned with a recently proposed scalable protocol for vehicle platooning, known as the serial consensus protocol. This achieves coordination of second-order integrator systems through a series connection of first-order conventional consensus protocols, and has been theoretically shown to have advantageous stability and performance properties. We implement this protocol on a vehicl
Cement hydration kinetics are controlled by clinker composition, water addition, sulfate availability and fineness. The analytical access to the first hour of hydration is limited. Here a new setup is introduced to record the initial 30-60 minutes of hydration on a routine basis with isothermal calorimetry. Fast isothermal calorimetry is fully quantitative. Reproducibility is reported in terms of
Background: Severe Alpha-1-Antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), phenotype PiZZ, is a leading cause of liver disease in neonates, children, and adults. Nevertheless, the prevalence of liver disease and mortality within PiZZ adults remains unclear. Between 1972 and 1974, a cohort of 129 individuals with severe AATD (PiZZ) was identified through the Swedish national screening of 200,000 newborns. The cohor
Programming is a cognitively demanding exercise. Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a disruptive technology is redefining the practice of programming and transforming software engineering. As AI is evolving to a multimodal version that accommo- dates not only texts but also speech, images, and more, we see an opportunity to design eye-tracking based assistance to support programmers. Since AI has tak
Background: Hypertension management guidelines provide recommendations for optimal patient care. However, the limited time available of clinicians is rarely considered. The aim of this study was to evaluate the time clinicians currently spend on different components of hypertension care during an average workday and to assess physicians’ perceptions of the time required for optimal, guideline-base
The thesis studies the notion of unity in early writings of Chiara Lubich (1920–2008) from a relational perspective through the theoretical lens of self-emptying (kenosis). The notion of unity is central to the spirituality of unity that constitutes the spiritual foundation of the Focolare Movement. By situating the writings of Lubich studied for this thesis in their historical context (1939–1962)
The electrification of the transportation sector is a central strategy for decarbonization, yet it raises concerns about the capacity of existing electric power grids to meet increasing demand. This thesis investigates the interaction between large-scale electrified vehicle fleets and the electric power system under the assumption of full transport electrification. The focus is on assessing the re
A Backyard of AffectionsPerformance presented as part of 25% seminar of the artistic research project On Ancestrality and Regeneration: Performing Decolonial JourneysThe performance covers two seminal aspects of my life: stories of acceptance, dealing with the loving relationship I developed with my maternal grandmother Voinha; and stories of intolerance, where I delve into my rigid and loveless
