It is obviously expected that sustainable development is the primary target to raise prosperity and life standards of nations. It is necessary to ensure social, political, and economic stability. But what about the stimulus factors that motivate sustainable development? Can income inequality be one of them? Some literature has examined the role of income distribution on economic growth, but to te
Title: Is the Honeymoon Over For Instagram? - A qualitative study on how Generation Y reasons about brand marketing strategies Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how Instagram-users from Generation Y reason about various forms of marketing on Instagram, in order to contribute with a deeper understanding on how they view brand strategies to reach them as consumers. Theoretical
The meiotic functions of Emi2, an inhibitor of the APC/C complex, have been best characterized in oocytes where it mediates metaphase II arrest as a component of the cytostatic factor. We generated knockout mice to determine the in vivo functions of Emi2—in particular, its functions in the testis, where Emi2 is expressed at high levels. Male and female Emi2 knockout mice are viable but sterile, in
Perlecan is a heparansulfate proteoglycan found in basement membranes, cartilage, and several mesenchymal tissues that form during development, tumour growth, and tissue repair. Loss-of-function mutations in the perlecan gene in mice are associated with embryonic lethality caused primarily by cardiac abnormalities probably due to hemopericards. The aim of the present study was to investigate the m
Neurocan is a component of the extracellular matrix in brain. Due to its inhibition of neuronal adhesion and outgrowth in vitro and its expression pattern in vivo it was suggested to play an important role in axon guidance and neurite growth. To study the role of neurocan in brain development we generated neurocan-deficient mice by targeted disruption of the neurocan gene. These mice are viable an

An investigation of the autonomy of the process region at the tip of a crack is carried out. An elastic plastic linearly hardening material is assumed. A cohesive zone model with constant cohesive stress is chosen. The cohesive zone length is observed to decrease with decreasing hardening rates and increasing cohesive stresses. For a cohesive stress larger than about three times the yield stress t
Transplantation of allogeneic embryonic neural tissue is a potential treatment for patients with Parkinson's and Huntington's diseases. The supply of human donor tissue is limited, and alternatives such as the use of animal (e.g., porcine) donor tissue are currently being evaluated. Before porcine grafts can be used clinically, strategies to prevent neural xenograft rejection must be developed. Kn
BackgroundDespite the fact that eldercare services are organizationally part of social work in Sweden, the social work practice is disappearing and older people are expected to take the responsibility for their own well-being. In this context, they have to create their own sense of meaningfulness in their everyday life, despite being subject to social care services.Methods As part of a research pr

Popular Abstract in English An algae that has lost its ability to do photosynthesis over the last million years and started to feed on human blood causes about 600.000 death every year, a number equals about 8 times Lund’s present population. This evolved algae named Plasmod- ium falciparum causes Malaria, a tropical disease mainly affecting economically weak regions in Africa. Unlike bacteria or Malaria, caused by the protozoan parasite Plasmodium falciparum is responsible for about 600.000 death cases every year. Mainly affected are populations of subtropical countries in Africa and the largest groups of victims are children below the age of 5 years. The fast evolving drug resistances of Plasmodium against the the most pow- erful antimalarials threatens the successful containment of this

Flight is an expensive form of locomotion, but also offers the ability to travel great distances at relatively low cost. Birds have developed various adaptations for optimizing flight performance. The main aim of this thesis is to identify how morphological variables in birds affect aerodynamic drag and flight performance. To this end I studied the aerodynamic performance of a jackdaw (Corvus mone

PCR of TCR/Ig gene rearrangements is considered the method of choice for minimal residual disease (MRD) quantification in BCP-ALL, but flow cytometry analysis of leukemia-associated immunophenotypes (FCM-MRD) is faster and biologically more informative. FCM-MRD performed in 18 laboratories across seven countries was used for risk stratification of 1487 patients with BCP-ALL enrolled in the NOPHO A
The purpose of this study was to investigate three aspects of asexuality. This was achieved through conducting six interviews with self identified asexuals, an observation on a meeting for asexuals, an analysis of what functions the two organisations for asexuals, Nätverket Asexuell and AVEN have, and a content analysis concerning how people talk about a lack of sexual lust on the internet. The co
This paper aims to assess the spatial variability in the response of CO2 exchange to irradiance across the Arctic tundra during peak season using light response curve (LRC) parameters. This investigation allows us to better understand the future response of Arctic tundra under climatic change. Peak season data were collected during different years (between 1998 and 2010) using the micrometeorologi
