Agile has been touted as a concept to deal with and succeed in the fast-paced environment in which companies operate today. Based on this concept, practitioners have created frameworks and practices that have proven to bring benefits in software development. Looking to extend these benefits beyond software development, companies are launching large-scale agile transformation initiatives, however,
Background: Smoking has shown interactions with bladder cancer (BC) genetic variants, especially N-acetyltransferase-2 (NAT2), a tobacco smoke metabolism gene, on BC risk. The interactions by disease aggressiveness are unknown. Methods: We investigated the interaction between smoking and 18 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for BC, individually and in a genetic risk score (GRS), on urothelial
The present paper explores the TL characteristics of Ag, Cu and Ni doped and co-doped Li2B4O7 nano-composites (NCs). These NCs were synthesized via a Sol–gel process. The influence of doping agents on the optical and TL properties of Li2B4O7 NCs was investigated. Obtained nano-composites were calcined at 700 °C for 8 h. The incorporation of Ag, Cu and Ni impurities in Li2B4O7 lattice has been conf
In this study, a synthesis process based on the microemulsion method (ME) was developed with the aim to produce controlled-size starch nanoparticles (SNPs). Several formulations were tested for the preparation of the W/O microemulsions varying the organic/aqueous phase ratios and co-stabilizers concentrations. SNPs were characterized in terms of size, morphology, monodispersity and crystallinity.
Songbirds have evolved diverse strategies to cope with seasonality, including long-, medium-, and short-distance migration. There is some evidence that birds with a longer migration distance deposit fuel faster. However, most studies focus on long-distance migrants. Comparisons between species with different migration distances are necessary to broaden our understanding of fueling capacity in migr
Significant collaborations with research partners in China are seen in many Western countries. With increasing geopolitical tensions governments, research institutions and individuals are increasingly called upon to address a proliferating array of risks and challenges associated with scientific collaboration with China. The situation is characterised by two parallel, intertwined processes. On the
While a naive algorithm for multiplying two 2 × 2 matrices requires eight multiplications and four additions, Strassen showed how to compute the same matrix product using seven multiplications and 18 additions. Winograd reduced the number of additions to 15, which was assumed to be optimal. However, by introducing a change of basis, Karstadt and Schwartz showed how to lower the number of additions
This thesis presents four interconnected studies showing methods for characterizing and separating cells based on their acoustic properties, with particular focus on isolating rare cells from blood samples.The first study introduces a technique for single-cell density measurements using microcapillary-adapted density gradient centrifugation. Using fluorescent markers to visualize the density gradi
This essay discusses the notion of 'semiotic development in child development' and highlights potential concerns for 'psychologism' when semiotics turns into cognitive semiotics. The notion of 'semiotic development in child development' indicates a transdisciplinary approach involving both semiotics, the general study of meaning and signs, and child psychology. This, however, invites the criticism
This paper presents findings from a longitudinal, experimental project investigating the effect of translation on the morphosyntactic accuracy of advanced Swedish (L1) learners of English (L2). The subjects were first-year students of English at a Swedish university. The curriculum was communicative and translation (Focus-on-Forms) was used judiciously. The research is couched in cognitive psycho
This paper presents a new Hardware (HW) im- plementation proposal for Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) based channel estimators. The presented algorithm uses the high time correlation property of the channel estimates to reduce the complexity and the power consumption by utilizing a lower number of bits for the FFT in the channel estimator, compared to a traditional approach. The idea is that the
Three different biological extremes of irradiation of living organisms, both human and animal, have been investigated and are presented in this thesis. Central to the thesis is the concept of bystander effects of ionizing radiation, i.e. biological responses in a cell that are not caused by that cell receiving a direct hit by ionizing radiation but by the fact that a neighbouring cell has been hit

Biodegradation is becoming an attractive mode of operation for eliminating toxic chemicals released from industrial processes or already present in the environment. One needs, however, not only to identify organisms capable of degrading such chemicals, but also to address the issue of whether these chemicals, after being degraded, will be toxic to the degrading organisms if present in high concent
AbstractThe uptake of different nitrogen forms by understory species was studied in field and laboratory. Species of the understory in deciduous forests have previously been thought to take up and assimilate only inorganic nitrogen sources. However, species also have the opportunity to assimilate amino acids, usually in low rates compared with ammonium, according to solution culture studies, but m
Popular Abstract in Swedish Xantofyll cykeln, dens enzym, pigment och regleringThe xanthophyll cycle involves the light-dependent and reversible conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin. Zeaxanthin has been implicated in the protection of the photosynthetic machinery from over-excitation. The enzyme violaxanthin de-epoxidase catalyses the conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin. The enzyme is located in the thylakoid lumen and its activity is strictly pH controlled. Apart f
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ämnet hållfasthetslära behandlar metoder och principer för att kunna bestämma deformationer och spänningar i en fast kropp som utsätts för belastning. Avhandlingen behandlar skademekanik, vilket rör hur skador (porer, håligheter, mikrosprickor och dylikt) påverkar materialets egenskaper och hur skadorna påverkas av belastning. Vidare förutsätter skademekaniken att materPlasticity induced damage evolution is considered using a thermodynamical approach. Different postulates on how to include the effects of damage in the constitutive equations have been studied. The results reveal that a mapping, similar to that of the stress, of both the kinematic and isotropic hardening variables is to be preferred. The undesired property that, irrespectively of the postulate emp
