Aedes aegypti is one of the most lethal disease vectors in modern history, spreading a majority of the deadliest diseases mediated by mosquitos. To try and combat this, mankind has, for a long time, tried to create repellents to keep the insects away. These repellents affect receptors in the mosquitos, keeping them at bay. One receptor that is highly expressed in the mosquito’s prey/host sensory o

This thesis explores the influence of the current economic paradigm, usually referred to as neoliberalism, on various aspects of life, thereby creating its own psychology. This psychology of neoliberalism, with a strong focus on competitiveness, individualism, and consumerism, creates intertwined dynamics for individuals, public institutions, and society and functions as the backbone of economic g

This project was completed in collaboration with the graph database company Neo4j with the aim of developing a new algorithm for automatic detection of software bugs that degrade system performance, commonly referred to as performance regressions in the industry. Due to the large number of benchmarks used to monitor different aspects of the product environment, a flexible and robust solution was n

My main contribution to the Human Ecology field is exploring the relationship between memories and images of the future when pursuing transition imaginaries. By ‘feeling with the head and reasoning with the heart’, I used a sensory ethnographic method to listen to people's life stories during my fieldwork in Bolivia with territorial defenders. Throughout the data collection and analysis, there

Agonistic peace is an emerging approach in peace studies that advocates for non-violent and political continuation of conflict through transformation of inter-groups relationships so that former antagonists recognize each other as legitimate actors. As of yet, the practical implications of agonistic peace for ending violence and promoting durable peace have been relatively understudied, especially

Urban green space (UGS) refers to open spaces within an urban context that are filled with greenery and nature. These can range from very small vegetation to expansive park areas. The common denominator is that they have proven to be beneficial for human health and well-being. Access to green spaces is also important for children. Research suggests that time spent in green spaces supports the beha

6G technology is set to revolutionize wireless communication, advancing far beyond speed enhancements to reshape how we interact with technology. A key factor in this evolution is the efficient use of the radio spectrum, particularly in the centimetre-wave (FR3) bands, ranging from 7 GHz to 24 GHz. This thesis investigates strategies for adapting FR2 transceivers to operate in FR3 frequencies thro

Streptococcus pyogenes, or group A streptococci (GAS) is a well known agent of pharyngitis. The same goes for the closely related S. dysgalactiae subspecies equisimilis (SDSE). Recent data indicates that a third pathogen called Fusobacterium necrophorum, with similarly severe complications to GAS is the second most common pathogen in pharyngitis. These infections cause the greatest damage in low

Introduction: The forest industry might not be the first thing to come to mind when thinking of chemistry, but the analysis of cooking chemicals in wood pulping involves many laboratory methods. Background: The chemical recovery cycle is an integral part of the Kraft process, which makes laboratory analyses of different steps of the process necessary. In the recovery boiler, sulfur is reduced to

Simulating vehicle scenarios for autonomous cars saves both time and money compared to physical testing. For this to work efficiently a sophisticated simulation software is often needed. Esmini is an open-source, lightweight vehicle simulator that can handle advanced traffic scenarios. When designing scenarios to be used for testing autonomous vehicles, it is often beneficial to set up relative ve

Pediatric leukemias are one of the most common types of cancer diagnosed in children. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common form of leukemia in children, and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the second most reoccurring type of leukemia in pediatric diagnosis. It has previously been found that structural variations are an important underlying mechanism leading to these diseases. Fluo

Fluid overload is the build up of excessive fluid in the body and is a common condition amongst chronic heart failure patients. Fluid overload is treated with diuretics but the level of excessive fluid can vary. To match the fluctuations a flexible diuretics regime may be prescribed where patients are instructed to temporarily increase the dosage upon onset or worsening of fluid overload. In this

This study aims to discourage error-prone intuitive thinking in decision-making for proactive adaptation to disaster risk and climate change and to encourage the realisation of well-founded proactive adaptation measures by developing a decision support tool for Swedish municipal preparedness coordinators. Using a design research methodology, the researchers interviewed preparedness coordinators fr

This thesis examines the development Forest Green Rovers has undergone since their current owner and Chairman joined the club. With a clear vision and agenda, the aim was to over time transform the club into something greater than just sporting achievements. For nearly fifteen years, the club's management has been dedicated to embedding sustainability in all aspects of the club's operation

To promote sustainable manufacturing and lower industrial emissions, GE HealthCare is constantly assessing new approaches to improve their production processes. As a global manufacturer of contrast media, their potential for positive societal impact is significant. In addition to sustainability, a pharmaceutical production process is required to deliver products of high purity. This means that the

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has transformed the study of antibody repertoires by enabling high-throughput, in-depth analysis of immune diversity and antigen-driven selection. When paired with in vitro display technologies, NGS offers unparalleled resolution in characterizing antibody libraries, but also presents substantial computational challenges due to the highly variable nature of antibod

The Million Homes Programme, launched in Sweden during the 1960s, resulted in the construction of over one million homes to address a national housing shortage. A majority of the houses consist of linear block buildings, many of which now require renovation. Moreover, climate change and increasing energy demands have put pressure on the building sector to reduce emissions and improve energy perfor

Fire safety design for complex buildings often relies on the Performance-based Design approach which assesses the margin of safety by comparing Available Safe Egress Time with Required Safe Egress Time. However, most current modelling tools often operate independently or at most with one-way coupling. This potentially reduces the accuracy of fire safety assessments by failing to capture dynamic in
