This project explores how urban design can support a more inclusive, walkable and caring neighbourhood for older women in Copenhagen. Located in Refshaleøen, the project uses independently living women aged 65–75 as a critical lens for rethinking future urban development. The proposal focuses on everyday needs often overlooked in conventional planning, including slower movement, rest, safety, acc
This thesis is an experimental study that explores the role correlated disorder plays in the ground state selection of quantum magnetic materials. Whilst magnetic materials with conventional long-range magnetic orderings give rise to magnetic Bragg peaks that can be understood through average structure methods, the unconventional correlated short-range orderings of quantum magnetic materials give
In this episode, we speak to Kees van der Geest, academic officer and Head of Environment and Migration section at the UN University, and Linnéa Nordlander, Assistant Professor of human rights and sustainability at the University of Copenhagen.

Abstract in French:Cette introduction situe le numéro spécial Passés Alévis contestés dans les efforts en cours visant à repenser la tradition alévie, en mettant au premier plan la pluralité, le dynamisme et le caractère situé des imaginaires liés à l’histoire des Alévis. Cette introduction soutient que les cadres épistémologiques façonnés par des paradigmes orientalistes et nationalistes, ainsi qThis introduction positions the special issue Alevi Pasts Contested as an intervention in the ongoing effort to rethink Alevi tradition by foregrounding the plurality, dynamism, and situated character of imaginations related to the history of the Alevis. It argues that epistemological frameworks shaped by Orientalist and nationalist paradigms, as well as ethnographic and diaspora research, have pr
This thesis explores possibilities and challenges for urban planners to contribute to a degrowth transformation. Degrowth calls for a reduction of production and consumption, a redistribution of wealth and a shift in societal norms and values to address the current environmental crises. According to the existing literature, urban planners may be able to help advance and implement degrowth. To expl
Ideas on the (human) body, gender, and identity lie at the core of many socio-political issues and cultural trends in Asia today, while also inspiring innovative research on artistic expression from Asia's past. By focusing on socio-political as well as cultural issues from diverse geographical and historical contexts, this book highlights complex links and interactions that bind these three inter
Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with substantial costs that escalate as the disease progresses. Previous research has explored the relationship between disease progression, motor symptoms, and the economic burden of PD. However, there is a lack of studies focusing on the relationship between costs and non-motor symptoms (NMS). Objective: To examine t
The online information landscape is a site for contested ideas, but it is also a marketplace; under the platform economy, every engagement has monetary value. This setup encourages content creators to circulate the kinds of material most likely to capture attention, even if it is incendiary. Central to this business model are the algorithmic recommendation systems, which are designed to monetize a
A new scientific view of evolution is emerging—one that challenges and expands our understanding of how evolution works. Recent research demonstrates that organisms differ greatly in how effective they are at evolving. Whether and how each organism adapts and diversifies depends critically on the mechanistic details of how that organism operates—its development, physiology, and behavior. That is b
PURPOSE: Techniques for endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke due to medium or distal vessel occlusions (MDVO) need to be improved, and first-line aspiration is emerging as a promising technique. The objective was to describe first-pass and final reperfusion rates with a triaxial direct aspiration first pass technique (ADAPT) and a novel, quadriaxial technique (QUATTRO-ADAPT) using RE
Lysine acetylation, once viewed primarily as a histone mark, is now recognized as a widespread regulator of protein function. Recent breakthroughs in chemical labeling, isotopic tagging workflows, and data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry enable precise, site-specific quantification of acetylation stoichiometry. This quantitative “acetylomics” approach reveals a “rheostat” model, where mo
October is coming to an end as we release this sixth and last episode of the first season (not to worry, we are already planning a second season). This time Nic and Rebecca have invited Paul McMillan to the mic and chat with him about our galaxy, the Milky Way, and his involvement in ESA's Gaia satellite . Thereafter they take a closer look at the Pleiades.
Inhibition of adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is under increasing investigation for its therapeutic potential in many diseases. Existing AMPK inhibitors are however limited, with poor selectivity and substantial off-target effects. Here, we provide mechanistic insights and describe the cellular selectivity of the recently identified AMPK inhibitor BAY-3827. A 2.5-Å
The Iberian ribbed newt (Pleurodeles waltl) constitutes a central model for probing the basis of vertebrate regeneration. Here, we present the sequencing and chromosome-scale assembly of the 20.3Gb P. waltl genome, which exhibits the highest level of contiguity and completeness among giant genome assemblies. We uncover that DNA transposable elements are the major contributors to its expansion, wit
Let (Formula presented.) be a (Formula presented.) -adic analytic pro- (Formula presented.) group of dimension (Formula presented.), with lower (Formula presented.) -series (Formula presented.). We produce an approximate series which descends regularly in strata and whose terms deviate from (Formula presented.) in a uniformly bounded way. This brings to light a new set of rational invariants (Form
