After the pandemic COVID-19, there has been a widespread adoption of the remote work model. In addition, team compositions are becoming more diverse across various aspects. Therefore, there are a lot of mixed views on how companies should manage remote work strategies to balance the interest of both employer and employee, taking into consideration the diversity within teams. While previous literat
The use of antenna arrays allows for direction-of-arrival (DoA) estimation in a radar system. The antenna elements in an array are conventionally positioned equidistantly on a grid, but they can also be placed relatively freely to form sparse antenna arrays. These non-conventional layouts could potentially offer improved DoA capabilities. In this work, a particle swarm optimization algorithm has b
Intergovernmental organizations can be found in all regions around the world, but in the Middle East they are a rare phenomenon. SESAME is a synchrotron light radiation facility located in Jordan governed by its eight member states: Cyprus, Egypt, Iran, Israel, Jordan, Pakistan, Palestine, and Turkey. It has been promised as a project of science diplomacy, producing not only research, but also inc
Galectins are cytosolic protein family involved in several biological functions such as cell differentiation, cell migration and apoptosis amongst many others. Their presence is also substantial in diseases including acute inflammation, fibrosis, allergies, and cancer. This protein family consists of 15 members where the majority of them are found in humans and they are divided into three subgroup
Popular Abstract in Swedish Målet avhandlingen har varit att undersöka möjligheten att bygga en kvantdator i kristaller dopade med joner av sällsynta jordartsmetaller. Det har visat sig att sådana joner har en väldigt lång livstid, vilket är en förutsättning för de typer av experiment som har utförts i den här avhandlingen. För att ytterliggare förhindra att de känsliga tillstånden i jonerna störs
The centenary of the outbreak of the First World War in 1914 has spurred a lively popular and academic debate about the conflict's role in shaping the twentieth century and the European present. This article examines the war from a slightly different perspective, taking as its point of departure the impact of the war on neutral Scandinavia and its place in contemporary Scandinavian historical cons
Background: Excessive and inappropriate use of antibiotics is considered to be the most important reason for development of bacterial resistance to antibiotics. As antibiotic resistance may spread across borders, high prevalence countries may serve as a source of bacterial resistance for countries with a low prevalence. Therefore, bacterial resistance is an important issue with a potential serious
Hyolithids are a group of Paleozoic lophotrochozoans with a four-pieced skeleton consisting of a conch, an operculum, and a pair of lateral 'spines' named helens. Both the conch and operculum are relatively well known and, to a certain extent, have modern analogues in other lophotrochozoan groups. The helens, on the other hand, are less well known and do not have clear modern analogues. This has h
Background: Pancreatic cancer and other pancreaticobiliary type periampullary adenocarcinomas have a dismal prognosis even after resection and neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Intestinal type periampullary adenocarcinomas generally have a better prognosis, but little is known on optimal neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment. New prognostic and treatment predictive biomarkers are needed for improved treatmen
Based on sequence and phylogenetic analyses, glycoside hydrolase (GH) 3 can be divided into several clusters that differ in the length of their primary sequences. However, structural data on representatives of GH3 are still scarce, since only three of their structures are known and only one of them has been thoroughly characterized-that of an exohydrolase from barley. To allow a deeper structural
Formal education has been proposed to shape life-long cognitive development. Studies reporting that gains from cognitive training transfer to untrained tasks suggest direct effects of mental activity on cognitive processing efficiency. However, associative memory practice has not been known to produce transfer effects, which is odd considering that the key neural substrate of associative memory, t
