Title: A Storytelling and Brand Identity Connection - A multiple case study on companies communicating through storytelling and how it can connect to their brand identity. Date of Seminar: June 2, 2022. Course: BUSN39, Degree Project in Global Marketing. Authors: Erik Andrén and Therese Hermelin. Supervisor: Mats Urde. Key Words: Corporate Brand Management, Corporate Brand Identity, Storytel
In the Lutheran tradition, of which the Church of Sweden is part, the spoken and written word often gets an automatic priority over the experience and perception of artistic expression. As a result, the discourse on the role of aesthetics in liturgical formation has come second to the ongoing discussion about the linguistic and semantic meaning of texts. This thesis wants to contribute to a renewe
The banking and financial services industry is experiencing a significant transformation driven by factors such as regulatory changes, customer demands, and the growing focus on data. This evolution has given rise to the concept of open finance, an extension of open banking that encompasses various financial sectors. Open finance aims to promote data sharing and access across the industry, with th
Syfte: Syftet med studien är att identifiera vad som definierar ett framgångsrikt byggprojekt och vilka framgångsfaktorerna är för att säkerställa att projektet enligt beställaren blir framgångsrikt. Vidare är syftet att undersöka hur kravställningen i de administrativa föreskrifterna påverkar ett projekts framgång. Frågeställningar: • Hur definierar beställaren ett framgångsrikt projekt? • Vilka
Society is undergoing a great transformation with regard to the climate crisis, where electrification plays a crucial role in decarbonizing. To meet the future energy demand, improving power grid utilization is essential. This thesis develops standardized methods to evaluate and identify key parameters in terms of impact and branch loading, and to determine the probability of load flow scenarios u
Factory Detectives: Uncovering Hidden Performance Secrets Imagine a factory line, running with tireless precision, a relentless ballet between machines and human. But what if a closer look reveals that efficiency isn't just about what meets the eye? Embark with me on a detailed exploration inside a gas cylinder plant, seeking to understand its true operational dynamics. To begin our investig
Abstract Title: The economic impact of posted workers in construction projects Author: Johanna Stenberg Supervisor: Radhlinah Aulin, Division of Construction Management Examiner: Rikard Sundling, Division of Construction Management Aim & goal: The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the economic differences that incurr when employing posted workers compared to swedish la
Osteoarthritis is one of the most common musculoskeletal diseases and increases the risk of severe cardiovascular disease, like heart attack and stroke. In some individuals, osteoarthritis and cardiovascular disease will co-occur. This co-occurrence might be due to shared risk factors, for example high age, lifestyle factors and/or a shared genetic liability for the two diseases. Here, we show tha
Photonic solutions are potentially highly competitive for energy-efficient neuromorphic computing. However, a combination of specialized nanostructures is needed to implement all neuro-biological functionality. Here, we show that donor-acceptor Stenhouse adduct dyes integrated with III-V semiconductor nano-optoelectronics have combined excellent functionality for bio-inspired neural networks. The
The manipulation and focusing of submicron/nanometre-scale objects are becoming increasingly important in the fields of biology, chemistry, and materials science. Acoustofluidics provides for the high throughput and precise manipulation of cells and particles with simple equipment. However, application to submicron/nanoparticles is challenging due to the particle volume dependence of the acoustic
There is a long history of avian studies investigating the impacts of urbanization. While differences in several life-history traits have been documented, either between urban and rural populations or across generalized urbanization gradients, a detailed understanding of which specific environmental variables cause these phenotypic differences is still lacking. Here, we quantified several local en
Objectives: To assess amide proton transfer weighted (APTw) MR imaging capabilities in differentiating high-grade glial tumors across alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation X-linked (ATRX) expression, tumor-suppressor protein p53 expression (p53), O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase promoter (MGMTp) methylation, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) status, and proliferation marker Ki-67 (Ki-67 index)
Conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) are potent antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that integrate signals from their environment allowing them to direct situation-adapted immunity. Thereby they harbor great potential for being targeted in vaccination, autoimmunity, and cancer. Here, we use fate mapping, functional analyses, and comparative cross-species transcriptomics to show that RORγt+ DCs are a co
AIMS: Inflammation is a key factor in atherosclerosis. The transcription factor interferon regulatory factor-5 (IRF5) drives macrophages towards a pro-inflammatory state. We investigated the role of IRF5 in human atherosclerosis and plaque stability.METHODS AND RESULTS: Bulk RNA sequencing from the Carotid Plaque Imaging Project biobank were used to mine associations between major macrophage assoc
Background Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is a spirometry pattern of interest regarding incident airflow obstruction and higher mortality risk. We applied a proteomic approach to gain more insight into the biological mechanisms associated with PRISm. Methods From the population-based Swedish Cardiopulmonary Bioimage Study (SCAPIS), participants in the Main (n=4835) and Pilot (n=1054)
Background: Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) is a life-threatening condition reported as often misdiagnosed. Advancements in CT availability and diagnostic algorithms, including high-sensitivity troponin and D-dimer for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and pulmonary embolism (PE), may reduce AAS misdiagnosis, but the impact remains unclear. This study evaluated the incidence, characteristics, and clinical
Nanoplastics are emerging environmental contaminants that increasingly threaten soil ecosystems, yet their effects on microbial behavior remain poorly understood. This is mainly due to the lack of experimental tools capable of directly observing microbial dynamics in situ under realistic soil-like conditions. Here, we present a proof-of-concept system that enables real-time, high-throughput monito
