A system for detecting protein-protein interaction using a bacterial two-hybrid approach, a heterologous expression system in Escherichia coli strain based on adenylate cyclase enzyme reconstitution, was invented twenty years ago (Karimova, et al., 1998, PNAS, 95:5752). Before inventing this system, yeast two-hybrid technology was used for screening putative interaction between either two proteins
The insurance industry is notoriously conservative and has seen comparably few technological improvements in the last fifty years. A wave of new technology- driven insurance firms, or insurtechs, is changing that. By leveraging new technology and offering more customer-centric and innovative products, these firms have captured shares in many insurance markets. One technology — yet to be broadly a
Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) technology has experienced phenomenal success in the application of wireless charging of smartphones. With the Qi Specification becoming the dominant standard, wireless charging's convenience goes beyond cable-free charging to facilitate interoperability between chargers and devices from different vendors. For wireless charging to operate correctly, the power tr
Innovation är ett vidkänt koncept som har fått ökad betydelse i dagens organisationer. Uppmärksamhet har framförallt riktats till de initiala faserna av innovationsprocessen, kallade Fuzzy Front End (FFE). Att hantera FFE effektivt har blivit nödvändigt i utvecklingen av nya innovativa produkter, eftersom det kan minska cykeltider och kostnader relaterat till produktutvecklingen. Det är dock svårtInnovation is a widely known concept which has received increased importance in today's organizations. Attention has especially been directed to the initial phases of the innovation process, commonly referred to as the Fuzzy Front End (FFE). Managing the FFE effectively, has become essential in the development of innovative products, since it can reduce cycle times and costs related to product
Under de senaste 10 åren har cirka en miljon människor sökt asyl i Sverige varav hela 163 000 enbart under 2015 när den stora flyktingvågen tog fart i världen. Detta satte stor press på Sveriges hantering av flyktingar och framförallt kommunernas bostadsförsörjningsansvar. Den 1 mars 2016 införde regeringen beslutet att kommunerna är skyldiga att ta emot ett visst antal nyanlända i syfte att ge deDuring the last 10 years approximately one million people have applied for asylum in Sweden and 163 000 only during the big stream of immigrants in 2015. This put a huge pressure on the Swedish management of immigrants and the housing for this group of people. The 1st of March 2016 the Swedish Government introduced a law where the Swedish municipalities are obligated to receive a certain number of
As multistressors have been shown to have significant effects on biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, the following study was made with the purpose of examining how a number of stressors specifically connected to climate change may have varied during the latest 65,5 million years and whether it is possible to predict potential effects on global biodiversity in the future. The analyses focused o
Bostik AB has long had a production where parts of the production are done manually. These parts include that an employee needs to lift a rubber pulp from a conveyor belt, twist and put the rubber pulp into a pallet. The employee should then put on a plastic patch between each layer. This process can in the long run be unhealthy for the employees who will carry out the movement because repeated li

Purpose: This thesis aims to investigate the effect of fitness influencers on the social media platform Instagram on users’ state self-esteem. In particular, the effects on users’ appearance, social, and performance state self-esteem are examined for distinct body types of the fitness influencers.

When studying in Brussels, Belgium, we first encountered the term “Scandinavian Exceptionalism”. We came to understand that many western countries are experiencing an increased punitiveness; high imprisonment rates, overcrowded prisons, relatively bad prison conditions as opposed to the Scandinavian countries. Penal excess and exceptionalism are often seen within the framework of welfarism and thu
A parent’s life threating illness and death can significantly affect their children's wellbeing in both the short and long term. Support from professionals is recommended when parents lack the ability to help children cope with loss, bereavement, and grief. The overall aim of this dissertation was to illuminate professionals’ encounters with children of a seriously ill or deceased parent and to ex
Background: The aim of this study was to assess whether hypothermia increased survival and improved functional outcome when compared with normothermia in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients with similar characteristics than in previous randomized studies showing benefits for hypothermia. Methods: Post hoc analysis of a pragmatic, multicenter, randomized clinical trial (TTM-2, NCT0290830
Purpose: An ageing population presents a challenge for municipal eldercare in Sweden due to difficulties recruiting staff and there being a strained economy. A strategy involving welfare technology is presented as one such solution. An important group to carry out this strategy involves those who work with welfare technology in municipal eldercare. In this paper we describe their perception of wel
Occupancy is one of the primary contributors to the energy performance gap, defined as the difference between actual and predicted energy usage, in buildings. This paper limits its scope to residential buildings, where occupant-centric consumption often goes unaccounted for in standard energy metrics. This paper starts from the hypothesis that a simple occupant energy efficiency label is needed to
New-generation single-layer polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE-) or polyurethane (PU-) covered stent (CS) for the treatment of coronary artery perforation (CAP) during PCI offer high procedural efficacy. To evaluate the comparative long-term safety and efficacy of both devices. This is a multicenter pooled analysis of individual data of patients with CAP undergoing implantation of single-layer PTFE-CS o
Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 produced one of the largest displacement movements in contemporary Europe, with millions of Ukrainians seeking protection across the European Union. While migration from Ukraine has often been understood through the lenses of safety, protection, and humanitarian need, wartime mobility can also become morally charged. Decisions to leave, stay
