Digital teknologi såsom mobiler och datorer har gett oss stora möjligheter till att kommunicera med varandra på ett snabbare och smidigare sätt än vad som tidigare inte var möjligt. Syftet med denna kandidatuppsats är att utveckla förståelse kring den upplevda påverkan digital teknologi har på våra sociala liv. Att belysa de processer som teknologi medför till att vara social som människa idag, de
Som ett led i Sveriges bidrag till en minskad klimatpåverkan ska miljarder investeras i gröna industrisatsningar i Norrland. Samhällsomvandlingen kräver att invånarantalet ökar och att det byggs mer. Och för byggnationer krävs det yrkesarbetare i form av bland annat snickare, betongare, murare som det redan idag är en brist på marknaden. Yrkesarbetaryrket måste vara ett attraktivt val för dagens u
Amidst global strategic rivalry and the growing politicization of interdependence and technology, structural influence within transnational economic systems underpinning high-tech industries has become an increasingly important source of strategic leverage. Within this context, this thesis investigates whether the European Union (EU) can derive geoeconomic power from its position in the global sem
The accessibility of Virtual Reality (VR) enables the investigation of desirable difficulties originating from memory research with increased ecological validity. The two desirable difficulties include contextual variation and retrieval practice. Most studies investigated individual learning in VR and found indirect effects (such as enjoyment and motivation), but knowledge acquisition was not nece
Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera kompositören Lars-Erik Larssons (1908-1986)originalmusik till spelfilmen Laila. Studien går ut på att analysera musiken i filmen för att se om den kan inordnas i de traditionella begrepp som används inom filmmusiken.

Urban greening is increasingly promoted as a strategy for sustainable city development, yet it often carries hidden social costs. This thesis explores the green rehabilitation of Budapest’s 8th district, Józsefváros, a historically diverse neighbourhood undergoing significant change. Using critical urban theory, the right to the city, and feminist urbanism, this study examines how sustainable urba
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm abnormality and is a leading cause of heart failure and stroke. This large-scale meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies increased the power to detect single-nucleotide variant associations and found more than 350 AF-associated genetic loci. We identified candidate genes related to muscle contractility, cardiac muscle development an
Barnobesitas är sedan flera år ett ökat hälsoproblem bland barn. Obesitas vid 4 års ålder ger en kraftigt ökad risk för obesitas senare i livet. Att förebygga uppkomst och utveckling av obesitas är en långsiktig investering för framtiden. Idag finns ingen evidensbaserad metod för vägledning inom barnhälsovården för att främja hälsosamma levnadsvanor och förebygga obesitas hos förskolebarn. Det övePrevention of childhood obesity with its effects on children’s mental and physical health and well-being is an international public health priority and is suggested to be effective when started early. As Child Health Services lack an evidence-based model, there is the need for development of a low-intensive health promotion model that is feasible and cost-effective in preventing obesity in prescho
In this work, a recently conducted measurement campaign for millimeter wave (mm-wave) vehicle to vehicle (V2V) propagation channel characterization is introduced. Two vehicles carrying a transmitter (Tx) and a receiver (Rx) respectively were driven towards each other at an average speed of 60 km/h in an urban area of Jiading District, Shanghai, China. The measurement was conducted with 409.6 MHz b
I februari 2016 lämnade Barnrättighetsutredningen förslag på hur barnkonventionen ska inkorporeras i svensk rätt. Uppsatsens syfte har varit att belysa detta förslag utifrån principen om barnets bästa, och dess frågeställning har varit om principen om barnets bästa skulle påverkas av en inkorporering, och i så fall hur. Fokus har legat på betydelsen av barnets bästa i 6 kap. föräldrabalken (FB) gäIn February 2016 The Inquiry on the rights of the child handed over a proposal for an act on incorporating the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) into Swedish law. The purpose of this essay has been to illuminate this proposal in view of the principle of the best interests of the child, and the question at issue has been if the principle would get affected of incorporation, and in that
In several other European countries, the number of electric bikes (pedelecs) has increased significantly in recent years. A similar increase is also expected in Sweden. So far the knowledge of the attitudes of people using electric bikes in Sweden are limited. This study consists of interviews with 39 persons from all around Sweden to get a better understanding of why they have chosen to ride an e
Novel methods to characterize the plasma proteome has made it possible to examine a wide range of proteins in large longitudinal cohort studies, but the complexity of the human proteome makes it difficult to identify robust protein-disease associations. Nevertheless, identification of individuals at high risk of early mortality is a central issue in clinical decision making and novel biomarkers ma
Patients suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) and traditional therapies including statins provide insufficient protection. Impaired removal of apoptotic material is a common pathogenic mechanism in both SLE and atherosclerosis and is considered to be a key factor in the development of autoimmunity. Since oxidized LDL and

Ecological compensation builds on the idea of substitutability, meaning that destroyed values can be replaced or substituted with new values that are equal to the ones lost. Through this equivalence between “lost” and “gained” values compensation is meant to allow dynamic economic development without causing irreversible biodiversity loss. Compensation is increasingly used as a means to reduce the
