The future of our planet relies on scientists' ability to effectively translate knowledge into action, and researchers have an imperative commitment to leverage their understanding. As aquatic early career researchers (ECRs), we draw upon personal experiences to share our learnings about how individuals can drive change. We showcase diverse approaches for ECRs to create meaningful impacts by conne
Vacuum impregnation (Ⅵ) is a versatile processing technique that enhances the nutritional and functional properties of fruits and vegetables by infusing bioactive compounds into their porous structures. This study demonstrates the utility of Ⅵ for fortifying fresh mango with β-carotene, a critical nutrient for addressing vitamin A deficiency, and for mitigating nutrient loss during solar drying. F
The development of nanoscale materials is essential across various fields, including catalysis. The intrinsic properties of well-defined nanometre-sized catalysts directly influence their catalytic performance. This thesis investigates the design, fabrication and optimisation of palladium (Pd)-based nanostructures as potential nanocatalysts through a multidisciplinary approach combining state-of-t
In an interconnected world, climate change impacts can cascade across sectors and regions, creating systemic risks. Here we analyse cascading climate change impacts on the EU, originating from outside the region, and identify critical intervention points for adaptation. Using network analysis, we integrate stakeholder-co-produced impact chains with quantitative data for 102 countries across foreig
Occupational exposure to the carcinogen hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] occurs during stainless steel production, welding, and chrome plating. Two sister-projects, SafeChrom and SAM-Krom, were initiated in Sweden and Denmark, respectively, to inform stakeholders, decision-makers and regulators on current occupational exposure to Cr(VI), and preventive measures prior to revision of national occupation
The world is suffering from increasing weather extremes caused by climate change of which the building sector is a major contributor. There is however a large reduction potential in the sector and circular economy has received increased attention both within research and practice. This study explores circular futures within the building sector through the futures studies method of backcasting. Two
Examensarbetet utfördes i samarbete med Klarna i Giessen med syftet att utveckla en komponent i en del av en webbapplikation som hanterar autentisering. Komponenten skulle interagera med auktoriseringstjänsten försedd från Okta tillsammans med korrekt auktoriseringsflöde som en lösning för tillåten användning av webbapplikationen. Arbetet inleddes med en undersökning av webbapplikationen, bakomligThis thesis was written in collaboration with Klarna in Giessen with the purpose of developing a component to deal with authentication in a web application. The component is intended to interact with the authorization service from Okta with the correct type of authorization flow to allow or disallow access to the web application’s resources. At first, knowledge was gathered regarding the web appli
This study examines the mechanisms behind the gender gap in equity-based start-up funding within the Information and Communication Technologies sector in Sweden and contributes to discussions on gender equality by presenting strategies for fostering inclusive access to equity-based capital. The analysis is guided by the following three research questions: (RQ 1) Does gender affect Swedish entrepre
As the life expectancy continues to increase in Sweden, with an estimated increase of 5 years for women and 6 years for men between 2024 and 2070, there is an increasing need for solutions that enables elderly people, and individuals with a need for extra safety, to live an independent and healthy life. One solution that is under development, is a mobile social alarm in the form of a watch, which
Objective Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a curative treatment associated with high morbidity and mortality. It is often necessary for family caregivers to become highly involved in the care, especially when patients return home after a long period of inpatient care. Family caregivers' preparedness for the tasks and demands of the caregiving role prior to allo-HSC
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders. The motor and non-motor symptoms of PD lead to a number of consequences in everyday life for persons with PD (PwPD). PwPD continuously need to adapt to their new life situation and despite medical treatment, the impact of PD on everyday life is inevitable and can lead to a lower level of life satisfaction (LS). LS is a
Conditions experienced early in development can affect the future performance of individuals and populations. Demographic theories predict persistent population impacts of past resources, but few studies have experimentally tested such carry-over effects across generations or cohorts. We used bumble bees to test whether resource timing had persistent effects on within-colony dynamics over sequenti
