Western-based LGBTQIA+ mobilisations have often been described as both internally fragmented and isolated from other social struggles. However, recent studies show that LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans*, queer, intersex, asexual/aromantic and other) organisations have increasingly used social media to span organisational boundaries by networking with other groups and framing common concerns
Drawing on social movements and gender studies, the article aims at exploring repertoires of action articulated by LGBTQ communities in Egypt, Tunisia, and Turkey during and after the 2011 and 2013 protests. The aim is to disentangle how LGBTQ individuals mobilized in the MENA region and which role civil society organizations and digital technologies played in the development of such mobilizations
European LGBTQIA* organizations have often been perceived as isolated from other organizations. While investigations have suggested that social media platforms foster inter-organizational ties, their role in promoting or dampening within- and cross-field interactions is understudied. This article aims to fill this gap by examining the factors shaping within- and cross-field digital interactions es
Although Western-based LGBTQIA* mobilizations have often been considered rather internally fragmented and isolated from other movements, recent investigations show that LGBTQIA* organizations have increasingly addressed multiple discriminations and built solidarity ties with communities coping with various inequality structures – such as race, class, and dis/abilities. This article addresses this
This dissertation examines emergent forms of digitally enabled boundary-spanning by considering the within- and cross-field interactions developed by LGBTQIA* organisations on social media. Within scholarship on collective actors characterised by strong collective identities, LGBTQIA* collective action fields have been conventionally found to be rather fragmented and polarised, as well as isolated
Background: The benefit of the ICU for older patients is often debated. There is little knowledge on subjective impressions of excessive care in ICU nurses and physicians combined with objective patient data in real-life cases. Research Question: Is there a difference in treatment limitation decisions and 1-year outcomes in patients < 75 and ≥ 75 years of age, with and without concordant perceptio
Ojämlikhet och fattigdom utgör centrala utmaningar för den svenska välfärds-staten i en tid av ökade levnadskostnader och skärpta villkor i trygghetssys-temen. Denna artikel syftar till att utveckla ett praktiknära analytiskt stöd för att förstå hur ojämlikhet formas och reproduceras inom socialt arbete. Med utgångspunkt i två empiriska studier baserade på intervjuer med 38 yrkes-verksam
As the core hub of cellular energy metabolism and signal transduction, the maintenance of mitochondrial functional homeostasis is crucial for cellular fate. This thesis investigates mitochondrial respiratory and redox responses in selected models of mitochondrial stress, with particular attention to cell-typ differences and methodological aspects of PBMC-based mitochondrial respiration. The first
Ethiopian air pollution is understudied yet highly relevant considering population size and source abundance including solid fuel cooking, small scale waste burning and vehicle fleet. Low cost PM2.5 sensors can be used to mitigate this by mapping pollution exposure. We report on indoor and outdoor measurements with Sensirion sensors SPS30 and SEN55, the former extensively validated in literature,
This thesis investigates the martensitic phase transformation with the aim of developing predictive models for its formation and evolution under different conditions. The work seeks to provide a fundamental understanding of martensitic transformation through both macroscale continuum modeling and mesoscale crystal plasticity modeling. The continuum modeling considers the austenite to martensite p
The development of future forest deadwood is uncertain, as processes related to deadwood formation (i.e., tree growth and mortality) as well as deadwood decomposition are simultaneously impacted by climate change. To elucidate future deadwood dynamics under scenarios of climate change, we combined a map of current global deadwood stocks with tree growth and mortality rates simulated by five dynami
Emergent macroscopic descriptions of matter, such as hydrodynamics, are central to our description of complex physical systems across a wide spectrum of energy scales. The conventional understanding of these many-body phenomena has recently been shaken by a number of experimental findings. Collective behavior of matter has been observed in mesoscopic systems, such as high-energy hadron–hadron coll
