We present a three-year multidisciplinary research project that started in 2019 and is funded by FORTE (Swedish Research Council for Health, Working Life and Welfare). The theoretical aim of the project is to gain a better understanding of the principles that underlie successful communication between the sighted and the blind via audio description (AD). The aim of a series of experiments is to ide

The capacity to get rid of excess heat produced during hard work is a possible constraint on parental effort during reproduction [heat dissipation limit (HDL) theory]. We released hard-working blue tits (Cyanistes caeruleus) from this constraint by experimentally removing ventral plumage. We then assessed whether this changed their reproductive effort (feeding rate and nestling size) and levels of

Gebel el-Silsila displays an astounding concentration of incised illustrations, of which anthropomorphic figures are frequent motifs. These figures were produced over several millennia; from prehistoric petroglyphs to pictorial graffiti of dynastic periods and throughout into Roman days. Spanning over six millennia visitors to Gebel el Silsila depicted huntsmen, warriors, boatmen, and horsemen, reGebel el Silsila displays an astounding concentration of incised illustrations, of which anthropomorphic figures are frequent motifs.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Jordens havsnivå förändras kontinuerligt. I ett längre geologiskt tidsperspektiv styrs förändringarna av processer i jordens inre, men i ett kortare tidsperspektiv spelar yttre processer, såsom tillväxt och avsmältning av inlandsisar, stor roll för havets nivåförändringar. Det grönländska istäcket är idag norra halvklotets enda inlandsis och dess tillväxt och avsmältninNew results are presented from the investigation of relative sea-level changes in the Nanortalik and Qaqortoq-Narsarsuaq areas in SW Greenland from c. 11 000 cal. years BP to the present. Isolation and transgression sequences from seven lakes and seven tidal basins are identified using some of the traditional methods such as stratigraphic description, magnetic susceptibility, saturated induced rem

Inflammation influences several steps of adult neurogenesis, but whether it regulates the functional integration of the new neurons is unknown. Here, we explored, using confocal microscopy and whole-cell patch-clamp recordings, whether a chronic inflammatory environment affects the morphological and electrophysiological properties of new dentate gyrus granule cells, labeled with a retroviral vecto

Conflicts, crises, and acts of violence in Europe have marked the twentieth century, which has led to a change in the view of threats. The Swedish military intelligence and security service (Must) is one of the operations that work to identify and report threats to the Swedish armed forces and the Swedish government. Therefore, Must has the power to control how others view threats. This essay aims

Vi har konstruerat en liten robot på hjul som kan köra runt i matbutiker och kartlägga positionen av prislappar. Roboten använder sig av kameror för att triangulera fram en 3D position för prislapparna som den har sett från flera vinklar. Roboten skapar automatiskt en karta över sin omgivning genom att optimera sin egen och omgivningens position för att minimera skillnaden mellan den matematiskt fThis report aims to compare methods that can be used to efficiently and accurately map digital price labels position in 3D space using a mobile robotic platform equipped with camera vision in a retail environment. The robotic platform built during the project uses four wide angle cameras to cover the full circular view in the horizontal plane. Installation of external systems for e.g. navigation c

This paper investigates to what extent Swedish-English code-switching and recent English loanwords occur in the printed and online versions of five newspapers and magazines. The newspapers and magazines that were included are Aftonbladet, Amelia, Elle, Café, and Helsingborgs Dagblad. The study shows that English was the most common in the printed media, while the hypothesis was that it would be mo

The increasing flow of remittances to Bangladesh plays a significant role in balance of payments of the country. The study investigates the dynamic long run and short run impact of macroeconomic shocks on remittance inflows to Bangladesh. The empirical analysis uses Cointegration Technique and estimates Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) for the period 1976 to 2011. The study also estimates the

How do museums reflect a pluralistic society? Since a few decades back in time, diversity is an established concept in Swedish cultural policy. One assumption is that museums could be places that reflect the diversity of cultural expressions in society and also counteract xenophobia and distances between people. Previous strategies to include diversity in museums have been marked by documentation

The aim with my study is to describe the children and youth everyday conditions in Malmö, Sweden, using idea analysis. Malmökommissionen was a politically independent commission appointed by the municipal board of the city of Malmö in Sweden in 2013. The task of the commission was to investigate and to come up with suggestions based on science on how to reduce the growing health inequalities in Ma

This essay examines the volatility spillover effects from oil price shocks across different US and EU industries, using a GJR-GARCH(1,1) model. We conclude that the European industries are much more sensitive to oil and stock market shocks compared to their US counterparts. In US, oil news have significant effect only on Basic Materials, Industrials, Utilities and Consumer Services and coefficient

This thesis has investigated the prevailing understanding of poor leadership as a major impediment to the democratization of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Analytical studies found evidences on the correlation between the authoritarian regimes installed in the Democratic Republic of Congo and the abortive process of democratization under the leadership of Mobutu Sese Seko and Laurent-Désiré Kab
