Streptococcus pyogenes is an exclusively human pathogen that can provoke mild skin and throat infections but can also cause fatal septicemia. This gram-positive bacterium has developed several strategies to evade the human immune system, enabling S. pyogenes to survive in the host. These strategies include recruiting several human plasma proteins, such as the complement inhibitor, C4b-binding prot
Purpose: The purpose of this article is to offer new insights into crisis communication in service ecosystems. The authors present a framework to conceptually categorize service crises and then analyze key aspects of crisis communication among different stakeholders in a service ecosystem. Design/methodology/approach: Building on crisis communication and service ecosystems research, we propose a f
An increased focus on sustainability and initiatives towards green supply chains raises new challenges for efficient inventory control. This doctoral thesis addresses the consequences some of these initiatives have on the modelling of inventory systems and the resulting policy variables. The overall research objective for the doctoral thesis can be stated as:To design mathematical models for evalu
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are expressed and secreted during fracture repair. Although they are likely to be required for this process, little is known about their physiological role in bone regeneration. Noggin is a protein that specifically binds and inactivates several BMPs, It plays fundamental roles during early embryonal development and limb morphogenesis by this BMP-inactivating act
This master thesis is a part of an inventory control research collaboration between NGIL (Next Generation Innovative Logistics) and Volvo Parts AB.

Their objective is to maximise the uptime of Volvo Group products for the end users by providing support and ensuring availability of spare pa
Nowadays, very few public services could be delivered by only one department or organization. In order to deal with those "wicked" issues, like transportation, housing, environmental protection, food safety or some other problems, collaboration between departments has been a need. Meanwhile, cross-departmental collaboration has been proved to be an important means for governance, which h
This deliverable showcases the progress and demonstrators of services integration between the ESFRI Cluster of Environmental Research Infrastructures and the European Open Science Cloud. It highlights the successful onboarding of the ENVRI Catalogue of Services onto the EOSC Marketplace, improving visibility and accessibility. Ongoing discussions with OpenAIRE aim to enhance the discoverability of
Purpose of the study: To further generate an understanding of previous research on NSD challenges in small firms and NSD methods used by firms when developing new experiential services. Theory: Research on challenges faced by small firms with performing NSD and methods experiential service firms use to perform NSD. Methodology: Qualitative multiple case study, the study is deductive in nature. Dat
