This paper considers the concept and practice of entrepreneurial leadership in the academe. After a small introduction to the research in the emerging field of entrepreneurial leadership, we note many substantial differences between academic entrepreneurs and the general class of entrepreneurs so as to motivate our focus on the academic community. We then provide a brief narrative on some strands
Electric Road Systems (ERS) is an emerging new technology that aim to electrify land transport by supplying electric vehicles (EV) with power. By providing EV's the possibility to charge while driving i.e. dynamic charging the battery size can be greatly decreased compared to a solution with nighttime and fast charging. The evaluation of the potential of ERS has already been published in a number
Direct ground cooling systems (DGCS) can provide comfort cooling to buildings without the use of any refrigeration-based cooling methods. DGCS is an emerging technology, commonly used for new office buildings in cold climates. This study aims to evaluate the energy-saving possibilities of a DGCS compared to a conventional chiller system for an existing office building. A typical Swedish office bui
Particle physics has an ambitious and broad experimental programme for the coming decades. This programme requires large investments in detector hardware, either to build new facilities and experiments, or to upgrade existing ones. Similarly, it requires commensurate investment in the R&D of software to acquire, manage, process, and analyse the shear amounts of data to be recorded. In planning
More complex understanding of relationality in care networks around patients with life-limiting illness and their significant others is needed. This is the case not only because care is distributed unequally along gendered lines, but also because of the changing landscape of care in welfare states where families and communities are made more self-responsible. This study examines everyday experienc
Much of the technology in advanced diesel engines, such as high injection pressures, is aimed at overcoming the short ignition delay of conventional diesel fuels to promote premixed combustion in order to reduce NOx and smoke. Previous work in a 2 l single-cylinder diesel engine with a compression ratio of 14 has demonstrated that gasoline fuel, because of its high ignition delay, is very benefici
In A Transnational History of the Australian Animal Movement, Gonzalo Villanueva covers the important events that led to the addition of an entirely new issue to the political agenda, transforming the conditions of nonhuman animals into a matter of public concern. Grounded in transnational history, social movement studies, and the emerging field of critical animal studies, A Transnational History
Boken behandlar det äldsta statliga konstmuseet i Sverige, Kongl. Museum i Stockholms slott, med beaktande av dess tillkomsthistoria, samlingarnas ursprung och uppställning samt överförandet till Nationalmuseum i mitten av 1860-talet. Publikationen bygger på forskning om föremålen och dokumentation i arkiven och ger en helhetsbild som i flera avseenden korrigerar tidigare uppfattningar och ger en
BACKGROUND: How long one lives, how many years of life are spent in good and poor health, and how the population's state of health and leading causes of disability change over time all have implications for policy, planning, and provision of services. We comparatively assessed the patterns and trends of healthy life expectancy (HALE), which quantifies the number of years of life expected to be liv
By Timo Minssen (CeBIL, UCPH), Sara Gerke & Carmel Shachar A recent US lawsuit highlights crucial challenges at the interface of data utility, patient privacy & data misuse The huge prospects of artificial intelligence and machine learning (ML), as well as the increasing trend toward public-private partnerships in biomedical innovation, stress the importance of an effective governance and
The last two decades have seen a significant increase in the number and quality of cross-national measures of institutions, which are also covering longer and longer time spans. However, despite the considerable progress that has been made, important measurement issues linger. This chapter argues that the key future challenge for the measurement of institutions is how to square objective or direct
BackgroundThe forest biorefinery plays an important part in the evolving circular bioeconomy due to its capacity to produce a portfolio of bio-based and sustainable fuels, chemicals, and materials. To tap into its true potential, more efficient and environmentally benign methods are needed to fractionate woody biomass into its main components (cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin) without reducing
