In an epilogue, Daniel Hjorth and Chris Steyaert aim to further multiply the new movements in academic entrepreneurship that this volume identifies. Therefore, they introduce a conceptual quartet that makes and keeps movement going: provocation, mobilization, affirmation, and experimentation. Their conceptual contribution, which has to be seen as an attempt to stir and disturb, relates these four
This article presents an online survey with 323 respondents and 28 semi-structured interviews performed to investigate people’s perceptions of fire evacuation training and their attitudes towards it. The survey results showed that respondents with experience in fire evacuation training judge a fire in buildings that feature non-combustible materials to be more severe than other people, but no effe
Background Early life factors may predict cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the pathways are still unclear. There is emerging evidence of an association of early life factors with apolipoproteins, which are linked to CVD. The study objective was to assess the associations between birth variables and adult apolipoproteins (apoA1 and apoB, and their ratio) in a population-based cohort. Methods The L
The accumulation of tau abnormality in sporadic Alzheimer’s disease is believed typically to follow neuropathologically defined Braak staging. Recent in-vivo PET evidence challenges this belief, however, as accumulation patterns for tau appear heterogeneous among individuals with varying clinical expressions of Alzheimer’s disease. We, therefore, sought a better understanding of the spatial distri
As well as contributing to society, corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives have frequently been utilized by businesses to gain a competitive edge. Nevertheless, despite companies’ endeavors to leverage their CSR initiatives, limited stakeholder awareness of these efforts poses challenges to fully realize the strategic value of CSR. Hence, the primary objective of this study was to exami
Novel immunotherapies for cancer and other diseases aim to trigger the immune system to produce durable responses, while overcoming the immunosuppression that may contribute to disease severity, and in parallel considering immunosafety aspects. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) was one of the first cytokines that the FDA approved as a cancer-targeting immunotherapy. However, in the past years, IL-2 immunothera
Consumers are increasingly asked to “empty out their closets,” to “de-clutter” or in other ways detach themselves from the textile surplus of their wardrobes. In this article, fashion is examined as a process of detachment. Building on ethnographic wardrobe interviews, wardrobe clearances and group discussions with consumers, detachment is viewed as a fundamental, yet underexamined, process of fas
In recent years, the expansion of production incentives and evolving global filmmaking trends have intensified the complexities surrounding runaway production, particularly in and out of Scandinavia. This shift calls for a thorough examination of how production incentives are affecting Scandinavian screen industries as well as the broader history of runaway production. In my postdoctoral project,
In EU migration law scholarship, accounts of crisis and its relation to law flourished in relation to the migrant and refugee arrivals which took place in the in the period of 2015-2016. To offer new insight on the relation of crisis, EU law-making and migration, this chapter focuses on the same topic but from an entirely different angle and time frame. Specifically, this chapter does not look at
Environmental degradation is one of the most significant challenges faced by humanity, yet current global politics struggle to implement collective solutions. Previous research has suggested that the EU has a leadership role in the international climate change regime complex, which refer to a set of overlapping institutions that address different aspects of climate governance. Moreover, within the
Exercise has many beneficial effects that provide health and metabolic benefits. Signaling molecules are released from organs and tissues in response to exercise stimuli and are widely termed exerkines, which exert influence on a multitude of intricate multi-tissue processes, such as muscle, adipose tissue, pancreas, liver, cardiovascular tissue, kidney, and bone. For the metabolic effect, exerkin

LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposons are a noted source of genetic diversity and disease in mammals. To expand its genomic footprint, L1 must mobilize in cells that will contribute their genetic material to subsequent generations. Heritable L1 insertions may therefore arise in germ cells and in pluripotent embryonic cells, prior to germline specification, yet the frequency and predominant developmental ti
The procedural and institutional rights granted by the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights have an important impact at national level in the application and interpretation of competition law by national courts and national authorities. In Sweden, the situation is particularly fascinating since the principle of openness – which affords a maximum standard of human right protection – may conflict with t
