Mönsterseparation är en neural mekanism ansvarig för att skapa specifika, ickeöverlappande, minnesspår för stimuli som påminner om varandra. Trots denna mekanism, händer det att minnen överlappar och detta skapar ofta interferens i samband med att vi försöker plocka fram ett specifikt minne. För att reducera interferens vid framplockning aktiveras en annan mekanism, nämligen inhibition av relateraPattern separation is a neural mechanism for creating distinct, non-overlapping, memory traces for similar inputs. Despite this, memories may overlap, and this often produces interference during retrieval of a particular target memory. To reduce interference during selective retrieval another mechanism comes into play, namely inhibition of related, competing memories. This inhibition is believed t

The aim of this master’s thesis is to explore the interplay of commitment and empty labour in two widely different organisations. Empty labour can be described as when you are doing anything else than your official working tasks. Commitment on the other hand is how and in what way you feel obligated to the organisation, your boss, your colleagues’ etcetera. Depending on several factors such as col

The microorganism Cupriavidus necator is a very interesting bacterium that has been established as a model microorganism for its capability to produce polyhydroxyalkanoates, more specifically polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), a potential precursor/raw material for bioplastics. Lately, the scientific community has raised interest in the chemolithoautotrophic nature of C. necator as it can be grown using C

A section of the Swedish library act stipulates that libraries are to pay specific attention to people with disability. Exhaustion syndrome is a mental disability that in recent years has started to grow rapidly in numbers. This master thesis is mainly aiming to study whether public libraries are welcoming and functional places for people with exhaustion syndrome but it also has a wider scope stud

When the Bosnian civil war ended in 1995 by signing the Dayton-peace agreement, the international community imposed so-called liberal peacebuilding, known as the top-down approach. Since this proceeding had brought unsuccessful results, the number of nongovernmental organizations began to increase in order to build a sustainable and more inclusive peace in post-Dayton BiH. This thesis examines th

I first got introduced to wireless power during another school pro- ject that resulted in a wireless charging case. In that project I con- ducted a lot of market and technology research about wireless charging and wireless power in general. During that project I got in contact with a Malmö based company called Nok9. They develope and produce test equipment for developers of wireless power de- v

This thesis examines the challenges that women human rights defenders (WHRDs) in Bangladesh are experiencing in a period of shrinking civic space. It further focuses on how perceptions guide their chosen strategies. Applying political opportunity theory, drawing from social movements research, it explores the structural changes in the political system and how it impacts civil society action. Thus,

Hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal har varit en av de yrkesgrupper som först fick vaccinera sig mot covid-19. Smittspridningen inom yrkesgruppen har dock fortsatt varit stor. För att minska smittspridning och trygga patientsäkerheten har regioner i Sverige infört vaccinationskrav för hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal. Med stöd av den rättsdogmatiska metoden utreder uppsatsen följderna beslutet att inte vacciHealthcare professionals have been one of the first occupational groups that got vaccinated against covid-19. Nevertheless, the spread of infection within the occupational group have continued to be high. To reduce the spread of infection and to safeguard patient safety regions in Sweden have introduced vaccine mandates towards its healthcare professionals. With support from the legal dogmatic met

Traditionally fault detection in industrial machinery has been performed manually by experienced machine operators listening to the machines. However, it is desirable to automate this process to increase efficiency and improve the working environment of the operators. The main challenge in this thesis is to create a system that can accurately detect when an anomalous sound event occurs, at the sam

The aim of this study was to investigate the professional role of the foster care officer and how this was affected by working with private operators. This includes how duties, discretion and professionalization were affected by the private operators. The study was of a qualitative approach including seven interviews with social workers working within foster care, in Skåne. The analysis was based

People’s ability to learn holds a promise for sustainability as learning is seen to enable change; yet, the prevalence of norms and values in society that reinforce unsustainability may severely challenge this process. The debate on what role learning can play is centered around the question whether people can learn from others and if so, how to enhance it. More precisely, who has to learn what fr

Research Question Does EO manifest in heterogeneous manners along the vertical dimension of an organisation, and if so why? Purpose To gain a deeper understanding of how EO is manifested within organisations and why the pervasiveness of EO could be manifested in an heterogeneous manner throughout an organisation. Theoretical Perspectives Corporate entrepreneurship, EO, entrepreneurial spirals and

Bakgrund: Cerebral pares [CP] är en hjärnskada som kan påverka funktionen i övre extremiteten. CP är den vanligaste diagnosen hos barn med motoriska funktionsnedsättningar.

[Translated title] Supervisor: Mikael Sandgren Assessor: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed The aim for this study was to examine social worker’s individual experiences on which of their personal needs they feel are being fulfilled by their w

The purpose of this thesis is to study how different political orientations in Swedish foreign security policy have been legitimized. After having pursued a policy of neutrality and non-alignment for 200 years, Sweden made a decision to apply for membership in the military alliance NATO. The investigated time periods are 2014 and 2022, during which Sweden has chosen completely different strategies

Uppsatsen handlar om en oklarhet i rätten till självförsvar enligt FN-stadgan, nämligen när en väpnad attack utförd av en grupp som inte är en del av en stats reguljära armé ändå kan vara hänförbar till den staten ge-nom internationella hänförbarhetsregler. Den relevanta rätten för att avgöra om en väpnad attack är hänförbar till en stat är FN-stadgan, ARSIWA, och internationella domstolars rättsThis essay aims to clear up the obscurity of the right to self-defense in the Charter of the United Nations, and more precisely when an armed attack committed by a group that is not part of a state’s regular army is attributa-ble to the state in question by the rules of attribution in international law. The relevant legal sources for deciding whether an armed attack committed by a group is attrib

Enligt den Europeiska konventionen om skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna och grundläggande friheterna (EKMR) krävs jurisdiktion för att en avtalsslutande part ska kunna hållas ansvarig, när ett påstående om intrång av non-refoulement enligt EKMR uppstår. Stater genomför extraterritoriella gränskontroller för att kontrollera migranter och internationella flyktingar utanför statens egna territoriuAccording to the European Convention on Human Rights, jurisdiction is a prerequisite for holding a contracting state responsible when an allegation of infringement of the ECHR arises, such as the principle of non-refoulement. States implement extraterritorial migration management measures trying to avoid triggering the principle of non-refoulement arguing that it cannot be applied extraterritorial

Rendering high-fidelity geometry in real time poses significant challenges due to the large data size, increased computational demands, and memory bandwidth limitations associated with dense meshes. While several techniques have been proposed to address these challenges — such as discrete level-of-detail (LOD) systems, hardware-based tessellation, and virtualized geometry solutions like Nanite. Ho
