Under de senaste 30 åren har en ny metod för att få information om tidigare ekosystem utveck- lats, nämligen att analysera gammalt (“ancient”) DNA (aDNA). Denna forskningsgren är fortfarande ung men har redan hittat många områden inom vilka den kan tillämpas. Inom paleoekologin finns det två huvudsakliga ändamål med aDNA-analyser; att kartlägga en arts hela genom, samt att bestämma antal taxa och During the last 30 years a new method for obtaining information about past ecosystems has been devel- oped, namely to analyse old (“ancient”) DNA (aDNA). This research field is still young but has already found many areas within which it can be applied. In palaeoecology, there are two main purposes with aDNA analyses; to map the entire genome of a species, and to determine the number of taxa, and

Strävandet kan tillgodoses när domstol fattar beslut om hemtagning enligt 21 § LVU, varpå vården upphör och barnet får flytta tillbaka till sina föräldrThe principle of reunification is the guiding principle when a child is taken care of in a family home in accordance with the Care of Young Persons Act (LVU). This means that the purpose is that a child shall be reunited with its parents once the conditions that founded the decision no longer exist.

The features of digital markets constitute entry barriers and facilitate large platforms to adopt strategic behavior. Large platforms benefit from these features, making it hard for new market players to enter their markets or compete. Besides, large platforms can employ strategies to foreclose competition based on the characteristics of digital markets, leading to large platforms holding dominanc

In today’s digital age, maintaining privacy is challenging as individuals often disclose personal information unwillingly. This discrepancy, known as the 'privacy paradox,' highlights the gap between privacy concerns and actual data-sharing behavior (Alashoor et al., 2022). Despite extensive research, there is limited understanding of how hedonistic and utilitarian motivations influence co

Antibiotic resistance is a global concern and is promoted by various types of bacterial efflux systems. One known efflux system expressed by the Acinetobacter genus is the chromosomally encoded AdeABC pump which works in conjunction with the regulatory system AdeRS. Recently, plasmid encoded variants of the adeRS and adeABC have been identified and it is thought that these may pose similar or high

Sveriges befolkning blir allt mer mångkulturell, vilket framgår av att den utlandsfödda befolkningen utgjorde mer än 20% av Sveriges befolkning år 2024, enligt Statistikmyndigheten. Men samtidigt som tillströmningen av migranter fortsätter, förändras inte nödvändigtvis politik och normer i samma takt. I synnerhet finns det en skillnad mellan hur migranter kanske föredrar att använda sina namn och

The significance of access to education has, like women’s role in peacebuilding, previously been examined in various studies. However, the relationship between these two has rarely been touched upon. Particularly the discipline of Sociology of Law has been observed to discuss the topics in separate academic discussions. Hence, findings in accordance with my study have revealed that there is no res

This research aims to explore how identity is shaped through the consumption of film cameras. Identity can be formed in numerous ways, through norms and values, social relationships, and much more. In the digital era, there is a lot of pressure on creating and maintaining identity quickly, as social media speeds up identity building practices. To explore how identity can be shaped through physical

Increasing numbers of species face long-term population declines as a consequence of human activities, and these pressures are expected to intensify under a changing and warming climate. Ground-nesting birds in agricultural landscapes are particularly vulnerable, including the Montagu’s harrier (Circus pygargus), which has declined across Europe due to intensive modern agriculture combined with th

Problem Definition: Ericsson wants to increase their focus on reducing the total cost of packaging for the company in the whole world. They want to create a simple calculation model that can calculate the total packaging cost and compare different packaging solutions (country, freight, packaging, and product) in order to find the most cost effective packaging solution. This will facilitate the dev
