People vary genetically in their susceptibility to the effects of environmental risk factors for many diseases. Genetic variation also underlies the extent to which people respond appropriately to clinical therapies. Defining the basis to the interactions between the genome and the environment may help elucidate the biologic basis to diseases such as type 2 diabetes, as well as help target prevent
A well functioning societal response to crises is benefited by individuals having adequate skills and knowledge. From a municipal perspective this requires the creation of a learning organization. The objective of this study is to determine whether individual municipal employees, who have the responsibility for preparedness planning, reason and act in ways that promote learning about crises and pr
Debating the role of literature, and poetry in particular, in foreign language teaching (FLT), many scholars underscore the enormous potential represented by literature when it comes to developing the students’ critical thinking, analytical skills, ability to understand other cultures and emphatic attitude. Nevertheless, poetry represents a challenge within foreign language teaching. Focusing on m
An increased use of the Internet has created new business opportunities. The development of e-commerce has, however, been crippled by a limited understanding of logistics and customer needs. This paper sets out to highlight those issues in pharmaceutical retail where added services should be created through e-commerce. The research is based upon a case study covering the pharmaceutical system in S
Occupations divide the labor market into separate repositories of skill, where labor market frictions hinder employee mobility between occupations. Such frictions shape the supply of skill, the wage structure of each occupation, and the occupation-specific opportunity cost and marginal utility of self-employment entry. We investigate why self-employment entry is dependent on occupation, using 7 ye
In this presentation, I discuss critical friend sessions (see Handal 1999), performed during autumn 2014 and spring 2015, and focusing on lecturers educating the same group of teacher students. The aim was to investigate whether or not one could find traces of didactics in their teaching, since a didactic dimension is necessary when educating students at a teacher education program. The lecturers
There has been much recent interest in how to help students in higher education develop their generic skills, especially since this is a focus of the Bologna process that aims to standardize European higher education. However, even though the Master thesis is the final and often crucial part of a graduate degree and requires many generic skills very little research has directly focused on them.
A hot topic subject in a youth's everyday life and the overall society is the rising housing prices and raised rent. It is a reality that housing shortages and high housing costs are one of today's biggest youth problems. How come that housing becomes popular in just specific areas? What is the resident's outcome of that places suddenly get a higher attraction? Gentrification is a poli
Matsvinn är ett enormt miljömässigt, socialt och ekonomiskt problem. För att förebygga matsvinn har EU och FN uppmuntrat matvaruaffärer att donera ätbara livsmedel, som de av någon anledning inte vill sälja, istället för att slänga dem. Livsmedelslagstiftningen ställer dock till med problem. Särskilt den otydliga regleringen på området, ansvarsregler och skattebestämmelser avskräcker företag fråFood waste is a significant environmental, social and economic problem. In order to prevent food waste, both the EU and UN have encouraged grocery stores to donate rather than waste edible foodstuffs that are unable to be sold. However, the foodstuff legislation causes problems. Especially the ambiguous regulations, liability legislation and tax legislation discourage companies from donating foo
Ett problem när det kommer till kompetensregleringen mellan bolagsstämma och styrelse är om aktiebolagslagen uttömmande anger vilka åtgärder som är att betrakta som exklusivt tillhöriga bolagsstämman, eller om det existerar även andra frågor som styrelsen måste underställa bolagsstämman. Sådana frågor som i princip är så pass ingripande att de förändrar förutsättningarna för bolagsbildningen, elle
1 januari 2018 trädde nya regler om beskattning av vissa personaloptioner ikraft. Dessa regler innebär att den förmånsbeskattning som sker vid förvärv av personaloptioner på förmånliga grunder på grund av anställning inte ska ske, om en rad villkor är uppfyllda. Dessa kvalificerade personaloptioner är dock inte helt skattebefriade, då eventuell kapitalvinst på de underliggande andelar som optionsi
