In September 2024, I started creating a performance entitled Encruzilhada, based on my understanding of carrego colonial (colonial burden), a concept elaborated on by Brazilian pedagogue Luiz Rufino in his work Pedagogia das Encruzilhadas (Pedagogy of the Crossroads). Encruzilhada concentrates on the production of an ebó (offer, sacrifice) to Exu. The ebó, in this case, are bean seeds that are pla
Simultaneous rheological, polarized light imaging, and small-angle X-ray scattering experiments (Rheo-PLI-SAXS) are developed, thereby providing unprecedented level of insight into the multiscale orientation of hierarchical systems in simple shear. Notably, it is observed that mesoscale alignment in the flow direction does not develop simultaneously across nano-micro lengthscales in sheared suspen
1 Evaluation of the MultiPark Research Infrastructures 2022 Kajsa M. Paulsson, Faculty of Medicine Research Infrastructure coordinator, PhD tumor immunology, Executive Masters in Business Administration (EMBA) Research Infrastructure management Background The strategic research area (SRA) Multidisciplinary research focused on Parkinson´s disease (MultiPark) is one of 11 SRAs where Lund University
Title: Training Organisational Soldiers: Leadership and Control in Trainee Programs Authors: Anna Piela and Annika Theiss Supervisor: Jens Rennstam Submission Date: May 22, 2015 Purpose: The purpose of our research is to provide a more critical perspective on leadership and leadership development within the context of trainee programs. Therefore we aim to understand how leadership is constructed i
Hemoglobin är ett viktigt protein. Det återfinns i röda blodkroppar och dess huvudfunktion är att transportera syre genom kroppen. Hemoglobin är komplext till sin struktur, till exempel består proteinet av fyra subenheter. I människor återfinns två varianter: vuxet och fetalt. Förmågan att binda syre, affiniteten, skiljer sig åt mellan dessa. I fetalt hemoglobin är syreaffiniteten högre än i vuxetIn this thesis a preliminary evaluation of the potential of a leghemoglobin (Lb) for the development of a blood substitute in humans, resembling hemoglobin (Hb) in red blood cells, was conducted. Leghemoglobin B (VfLbB), a gene from Vicia faba, was cloned into a pET-DEST42 vector, using the Gateway™ recombination technology. The recombinant vector containing VfLbB was sequenced and confirmed. Then
Genomic rearrangements larger than 50 bp are called structural variants. As a group, they affect the phenotypic diversity among humans and have been associated with many human disorders including neurodevelopmental disorder and cancer. Recent advances in whole genome sequencing (WGS) technologies have made it possible to identify many more disease-causing genetic variants relevant in clinical diag
I denna uppsats undersöks debatten om sena aborter i Sverige som uppkom i slutet av sommaren 2017. Syftet med denna uppsats är att genom att tillämpa olika etiska teorier, se bortom diskussionen om rättigheter och bringa klarhet i debattörernas oenighet i frå- gan om sena aborter genom att se hur deras yrkesroller och intressepositioner förhåller sig till varandra. Först undersöks argumenten som fThis paper examines the late-term abortion debate that occurred in Sweden at the end of summer 2017. Different ethical theories will be used to go beyond the dis- cussion of rights and to see the opposing arguments regarding late term abortion more clearly. The ethical theories will also acknowledge the professions and indi- vidual viewpoints of those involved in the debate and analyse how these a
Kommunikatörer är en yrkesgrupp som både kämpar för sin legitimitet och ett tyd-liggörande av vad rollen innebär. Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur kommu-nikatören porträtteras i platsannonser på LinkedIn. Studien utgår från en socialkon-struktivistisk ansats, där rollen antas konstrueras genom hur den beskrivs och talas om. Det empiriska materialet analyseras genom en kvalitativ innehållCommunication professionals are an occupational group who fight for their legiti-macy and a clarification of what their role implies. This study aims to research how the communication professional is portrayed in job advertisements at LinkedIn. The study adopts a social constructivist approach in which the role is assumed to be con-strued through descriptions of it. The empirical material is analy
In this paper, the Gospel According to Mark is investigated in search for its ghosts and phantoms. In particular, Mk. 6 and the scene of Jesus walking on water, as well as the story about the empty tomb of Jesus in Mk. 16, are considered as haunted sites. However, rather than finding straight forward ghost stories, following Greco-Roman standards of late antiquity, we are confronted by a different
In the last two decades, extracellular vesicles (EVs) from the three domains of life, Archaea, Bacteria and Eukaryotes, have gained increasing scientific attention. As such, the role of EVs in host-pathogen communication and immune modulation are being intensely investigated. Pivotal to EV research is the determination of how and where EVs are taken up by recipient cells and organs in vivo, which
The system of welcoming newly arrived students in Sweden has experienced numerous modifications since its inception. Additionally, because the interpretation of education laws us left to the municipalities and head teachers, the various policies have resulted in a multitude of local practices. Over the years, a very wide range of models for organising newcomer reception have therefore been tried o
The ability to remember an episode from our past is often hindered by competition from similar events. For example, if we want to remember the article a colleague recommended during the last lab-meeting, we may need to resolve interference from other article recommendations from the same colleague. This study investigates if the contextual features specifying the encoding episodes are incidentally
Checkpoints er fremtrædende og helt uomgængelige i nye syriske romaner skrevet i krigsårene. Checkpoint(s) (ḥājiz – pl. ḥawājiz) er en del af det nye litterære ordforråd efter 10 år med opstand og konflikt. Checkpointene er centrale elementer i de landskaber historierne udspiller sig i, de styrer den narrative struktur og tydeliggør væsentlige temaer i den tilværelse i krig, litteraturen fremstillCheckpoints are prominent and completely unavoidable in new Syrian novels depicting the war years. Checkpoint (s) (ḥājiz / ḥawājiz) are part of the new literary vocabulary after ten years of revolt and conflict. The checkpoints are central elements in the landscapes in which the stories take place, they guide the narrative structure, and accentuate essential themes in the life in war. Confrontatio
This paper investigates the basic prosodic structure of Hungarian and its inter-action with information structure, in particular the following two aspects: the prosodic realization of the topic-comment partition, and the resolution of conflicts that may potentially arise between the basic algorithms of the syntax-prosody mapping on the one hand, and the prosodic requirement of the focus constituen
Museomics is a valuable approach that utilizes the diverse biobanks that are natural history museums. The ability to sequence genomes from old specimens has expanded not only the variety of interesting taxa available to study but also the scope of questions that can be investigated in order to further knowledge about biodiversity. Here, we present whole genome sequencing results from the enigmatic
Herein we present our results on the investigation of the influence of external magnetic fields on the anisotropic collective dynamics of core/shell colloidal cubes having a hematite core and silica shell. Owing to the hematite cores, these micrometer-sized particles possess permanent dipole moments, which are at an angle with respect to the long diagonal of the cubes. As a result, they self-assem
Anti-competitive notions, it seems, are increasingly informing the critical debate on a data-driven economy organised into scalable digital platforms. Issues of market definitions, how to value personal data on multisided platforms, and how to detect and regulate misuses of dominant positions have become key nomenclature on the battlefield of addressing fairness in our contemporary digital societi
