How do we know that the food we eat is safe and healthy? Sweden is high on the charter over countries which have the highest food safety standards. Food health inspectors play an absolutely crucial role in maintaining these standards and systems.

Pramipexole is a medication that normalises dopamine signalling in the brain. Previous studies have suggested that pramipexole is an effective treatment option for depression and anhedonia because it targets the dopaminergic pathways within the brain’s reward network. The nucleus accumbens is a crucial region for dopamine signalling in reward processing. Both task-based and resting-state fMRI evid

The purpose of this master's thesis is to study how the public library can contribute to the transition into a more sustainable, resilient society. Through the phenomenon of the seed library, this thesis examines the library's ability to engage and communicate with the local community about environmental and climate related issues. The following questions were addressed: (1) Which function

One of the main qualities of life in Icelandic society is the earth’s heat that has been harnessed and fed into the homes of the citizens. The swimming pool is the clearest and most visible manifestation of these qualities of life. Bathhouses are a regular part of many people’s daily lives, and human life in the pools is a fascinating part of Icelandic society. Architecture plays a key role there,

Energifrågan gällande tillgång, kapacitet och kostnad för el har under de senaste åren blivit en aktualitet i det svenska men även europeiska samhället. Bakgrunden till att energifrågor har blivit angelägna i nuläget är främst en ökad elektrifiering av samhället, ökade kostnader på grund av kriget i Ukraina 2022 och kapaciteten som inte har motsvarat efterfrågan. I samband med en osäkrare omvärld,The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a single-family house can, in the event of a possible crisis when electricity is not available, manage the heating of a house during the worst week of the year when the house is off-grid. Furthermore, to calculate the potential climate impact for the house's energy demand during that week. Thus, three different heating scenarios have been ch

This thesis seeks to understand the role that Swedish civil society (in the form of children’s rights organizations) play in the creation of legislation, through the writing of consultation responses and role in the discussions of the law following its incorporation. The aim is to understand the interplay between the political system and civil society through the eyes of the civil society’s employ

The withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan and the subsequent Taliban conquest, has also sparked a renewed interest in the Vietnam war. Hence,

The purpose of the thesis is to design a new antenna system and to verify its link performance in 5G FR2 mmWave frequency for handheld devices to enable cellular communication. The main objective is to design an antenna primarily at 28GHz and 39GHz to enhance spectrum efficiency, along with improved transmission data rates, enabling new cases like Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and

New research suggests that the key to explaining the development gap might be resilience to shrinking instead of increasing growth rates. Latin America is considered an improving region from the growth rate point of view in development, but not so much from the shrinking perspective. Plus, country case study is needed as the region itself is highly heterogenous. One of the countries that has lagge

This thesis thesis explores what desires and motivations lay behind employees’ succession to managerial positions in a store environment. Previous research focuses on how to develop good leaders, rather than how to make people want to become leaders, which is why this is an important topic. The method used is a qualitative case study at IKEA in Sweden, where a combination of qualitative questionna

Attenuation of the microwave signal used in the Global Positioning System (GPS) due to interaction with building structures complicates the task of accurate indoor positioning. For this reason, research on alternative approaches is being performed at universities and companies worldwide. The Global Indoor Navigation (GIN) research project in Lund is one such initiative, where the main goal is to p

Context Since the time of Tycho Brahe astronomy has been an observing science defined by the quality of its instrumentation. The introduction of primitive telescopes by Galileo in 1609 began a period of development of ever-larger telescopes with greater measuring precision. Refracting telescopes were soon overtaken technologically by reflecting telescopes. The epitome of this development is the bu
