Amongst other factors, host behaviour critically determines the patterns with which blood parasites occur in wild host populations. In particular, migratory hosts that sequentially occupy distant sites within and across years are expected to show distinct patterns of blood parasitism depending on their population-specific schedules and whereabouts. Here, we monitored haemosporidian parasitism in t
Millimeter-wave cellular communication requires beamforming procedures that enable alignment of the transmitter and receiver beams as the user equipment (UE) moves. For efficient beam tracking it is advantageous to classify users according to their traffic and mobility patterns. Research to date has demonstrated efficient ways of machine learning based UE classification. Although different machine
The disruption of microtubule dynamics serves as a pivotal strategy for eliminating tumor cells, despite its accompanying toxicities affecting non-tumor cells. This study investigates the potential of selectively targeting γ-tubulin1 (TUBG1) as a therapeutic strategy in cancer treatment. By elucidating the TUBG1-E2F1-retinoblastoma protein (RB1) network, we introduce a novel compound, 4-(6-((3-Met
Ti (C, N) based cermet materials are predominantly used in continuous finishing applications of metal cutting due to their high hardness, excellent resistance to oxidation and high chemical stability. However, their application in interrupted cutting like milling are limited due to their brittle-like failure due to low fracture toughness. In this work, alternative binder systems such as Co-Ni and
Tool wear is one of the dominant factors that impacts the surface integrity of machined materials. Understanding the impact of tool wear on surface integrity is crucial in micromilling, due to the size of the features being machined and the cutting tools. Therefore, this work aims to analyse the impact of tool wear on surface integrity during the micromilling of Ti6Al4V. In this context, microslot
Polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PcBN) is renowned for its exceptional hardness and thermal stability, making it ideal for extreme machining conditions. Coatings on PcBN tools further enhance performance by extending tool life and improving cutting efficiency. While uncoated PcBN tools already excel in harsh environments, coatings primarily boost durability. Although extensively studied in tur
Cancer cells survive treatment through mechanisms that remain unclear. This study investigates the chemical changes that occur in cancer cells after treatment, focusing on lipid metabolism as a potential marker for survival and resistance. Using Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and advanced multivariate statistical analysis, we compared the chemical profiles of untreated a
In the field of second language acquisition (SLA) it is an important question, which role the native language assumes in the acquisition of another language. Studies have shown that there exists a native language influence on a phonological and lexical level. The situation in syntax is however different. Here a native language influence (transfer) is not self-evident.
This study aims to analyse and compare the challenges and opportunities that refugees and asylum seekers experience in Sweden and South Africa along with the strategies they develop in relation to higher education. As both countries have undertaken a more restrictive refugee and asylum policy, this study hopes to contribute to the debate of inclusion and its challenges. The data-collection entails
This study investigates the excess mortality, both all-cause and due to suicide, among individuals with schizotypal disorder (SD) compared to the general population. Using individual-level data from the Swedish National Patient Register and the Cause of Death Register, we analyzed mortality in 998 patients diagnosed with SD from 2006 to 2017. Our primary outcomes were all-cause mortality and suici

The background to this article is an interest in what categorisations such as ‘persons with or without disability’ create in terms of inequality and stigma, and how categorisations can support the implementation of Universal Design (UD). The article aims to show how a shift in categorisation can lead to a shift in the conceptualisation of UD, from “inclusive” to “nonclusive” design, i.e., to desig
Trust is an important aspect of learning. However, there is little published research on how students perceive its value. In this article, we report on engineering students’ perceptions of the role of trust in their learning and their experiences of what teachers do in their courses that builds trust. Nine students participated in semi-structured interviews and 477 student replies to a survey sent
Influencers befinner sig i epicentrum av digitalisering och motstridiga arbetsideal. En industrikapitalistisk idealisering av (manligt) lönearbete dröjer sig kvar, men utmanas av en nyliberal (postfeministisk) tilltro till individens (inte minst kvinnans) drivkraft att som entreprenör styra livet mot framgång och lycka. Här undersöks hur tolv kvinnliga mikro-influencers förhåller sig till könade nThe feminine-coded work as an influencer has emerged as young women have transformed their personal life stories and self- representations on social media into digital businesses. Despite similarities with other forms of media production, the concept of work is vague, both in the public’s perception of what influencers do and for influencers themselves. It is challenging to differentiate between w
