Akademiska ledares förutsättningar att implementera jämställdhetsarbete på ett svenskt universitet - En kvalitativ intervjustudie med utgångspunkt i Theory of Planned Behavior

Studiens syfte var att med utgångspunkt i Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) undersöka akademiska ledares individuella, sociala och organisatoriska förutsättningar att implementera jämställdhetsarbete. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med sju akademiska ledare med operativt jämställdhetsansvar på fakultetsnivå vid en svensk teknisk högskola. Intervjumaterialet analyserades med en teoridriven

Where to restore : Connectivity forest for spatial prioritization in forest landscape restoration

Forest loss, fragmentation, and transformation negatively impact forest biodiversity and ecosystem functionality worldwide. Improving landscape intactness and connectivity through restoration is critical. Determining where to restore remains, however, a challenge. As an approach for prioritizing restoration areas, we define connectivity forest (CFs) as forests outside recognized high conservation

Targeting Gastrointestinal Cancers with Carvacrol : Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Potential

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, including esophageal, gastric, pancreatic, liver, and colorectal malignancies, represent a major global health burden due to their high incidence, aggressive nature, and limited treatment outcomes. This review explores the therapeutic potential of carvacrol, a naturally occurring monoterpenoid phenol predominantly found in oregano and other aromatic plants. Carvacrol

Pursing Green Growth in the STRING Region: A Participative Approach towards a Green Growth Strategy

‘Green growth’ is a concept that has gained credence in the literature and wider policy-making circles, broadly referring to the implementation of policy and development strategies that encourage economic growth whilst ensuring that environmental wellbeing is maintained and / or improved. However, few examples of ‘green growth strategies’ have been produced to date, and the literature is sparse re

A Typology of Narratives of Social Inclusion and Exclusion: The Case of Bankrupt Entrepreneurs

On the macro level, bankruptcies are an intrinsic part of market economies and result in restructurings of companies and markets. On the micro level, bankrupt entrepreneurs are temporarily excluded from the market and forced to reorganize their understanding of the market. While some seek their way back to entrepreneurship, others decide to find other means of living which may result in drainage o

Understanding communicative intentions and semiotic vehicles by children and chimpanzees

Developmental and comparative studies of the ability to understand communicative intentions using object-choice tasks raise questions concerning the semiotic properties of the communicative signals, and the roles of rearing histories, language and familiarity. We adapted a study by Tomasello, Call, and Gluckman (1997), in which a “helper” indicated the location of a hidden reward to children of th

Pitch Perfect? En kvalitativ studie i hur ett urval av barbershopdirigenter arbetar med intonation i barbershopkörer

Som verksam barbershopdirigent och sångcoach har jag ett stort intresse för att bredda min kunskap om hur jag kan arbeta med intonation i grupp. Jag vill också ta reda på vilka tankar dirigenterna gör sig omkring hur de skapar förståelse bland körsångarna för det gemensamma arbetet. Denna studie undersöker några barbershopdirigenters syn på intonation, samt hur de arbetar med intonation i kör. StuAs an active barbershop director and vocal coach I have a great interest in broadening my knowledge about working with groups and intonation and to find out how other directors reason around creating an understanding for the chorus work among the chorus members. This study examins a few barbershop directors' views on intonation and how they work with intonation with their choruses. The study a

Vem - och varför - är den psykiskt sjuka brottslingen? - En genealogisk studie av den svenska hanteringen av psykiskt sjuka lagöverträdare

I den svenska straffrätten döms allvarligt psykiskt störda brottslingar i regel till rättspsykiatrisk vård istället för fängelse. Om brottet anses ha begåtts ”under påverkan av” den allvarliga psykiska störningen så kan domen förenas med beslut om särskild utskrivningsprövning, vilket innebär att förvaltningsrätten beslutar om utskrivning när den bedömer att individen inte längre har ett vårdbehov

In-between strengthened accessibility and economic demands : analysing self-service libraries from a user perspective

Purpose - The aim of this paper is to explore the implementation of self-service at public libraries from the perspective of their users. The implementation of self-service is related to a diverse societal context including for example an overall digitalisation, budget constraints and political expectations on public libraries to contribute to marketing the local community.Methodology - Semi-struc

Enterolactone and breast cancer: methodological issues may contribute to conflicting results in observational studies.

Lignans found in plant foods are converted by the intestinal microflora to enterolignans. The structure of enterolignans is similar to that of estrogens, which has inspired researchers to examine a potential protective association in relation to health outcomes. Numerous epidemiological studies have measured concentration of enterolignans, mainly enterolactone, in blood or urine as a biomarker of

Transcriptional Regulation of X-Box-Binding Protein One (XBP1) by Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 4α (HNF4α) is Vital to Beta-Cell Function.

The transcription factor, X-box Binding Protein-One (XBP1), controls the development and maintenance of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in multiple secretory cell lineages. We show here that Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 4-alpha (HNF4α) directly induces XBP1 expression. Mutations in HNF4α cause Mature-Onset Diabetes of the Young I (MODYI), a subset of diabetes characterized by diminished GSIS. In mouse
