Globalized economics have resulted in intricate global value chains carrying systemic risks of adverse human rights impacts. To address this, the EU adopted the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) in June 2024, establishing mandatory human rights due diligence for covered companies. However, following a regulatory simplification agenda aimed at reducing corporate administrativ
Testamenten löper risk att utsättas för olika former av sabotage. För att minska risken finns det en rad skyddsregler i lagstiftningen, men de är av äldre art. Vår arvs-och testamentsrätt baseras på ÄB som är från 1958 men efter många år har det föreslagits en uppdatering. SOU 2025:91 har framtagits för att modernisera lagstiftningen och anpassa den till de nya förut-sättningar som finns. Några avWills run the risk of being sabotaged in different ways. To minimize the risk, there is several protection rules in the Swedish law, but they are of an older nature. Our rules about succession are based on the Inheritance Code from 1958, but after many years there has been a suggestion for an update. SOU 2025:91 has been developed to modernize the regulations and adapt them to the new conditions t
A muon collider is a promising future collider concept for particle physics. The International Muon Collider Collaboration (IMCC) and the Muon Collider Collaboration (MuCol) are currently conducting a design study to investigate the feasibility of such a facility. To produce muons, a high-intensity, short pulse proton beam produced in a proton complex is directed onto a target, where pions are pro
The following thesis examines whether the Danish R&D tax incentives in sections 8 B and 8 X of the Danish Tax Assessment Act qualify as Qualified Tax Incentives (QTIs) under the OECD/G20 Side-by-Side Package and how such classification affects their treatment under Pillar Two. The analysis is based on a doctrinal legal method combined with a functional assessment of the incentives in ligh
Following the Urgenda climate court case in the late 2010s, Greenpeace cooperated with a group of Bonairean residents to take the Dutch state to court again in 2024 in relation to climate neglect. According to the plaintiffs of the Bonaire case, the Caribbean island that is part of the country of the Netherlands is structurally neglected when it comes to climate adaptation and mitigation. On top o
This thesis explores the phenomenon of quiet-luxury-inspired imitation fashion products in China. In recent years, quiet luxury has regained increasing visibility as a fashion aesthetic associated with understated design, subtle distinction, and material quality. With this trend, Chinese e-commerce platforms have seen the growth of brands that imitate the aesthetic and material qualities of high-e
As global populations age at an unprecedented rate, cities are increasingly becoming the primary environments where later life unfolds. This thesis explores how urban design can better respond to the everyday needs of older adults, focusing on the concept of ageing in place - the ability to live independently, safely, and meaningfully within one’s own home and neighborhood. While ageing in place i
In heavy industrial environments such as steel manufacturing plants, workers interact closely with moving machinery under conditions of limited visibility and high noise. A recent World Steel Association report attributes roughly half of industry fatalities to causes with a strong attentional component, motivating research into augmented-reality (AR) cues that direct workers' attention to haza
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) rely on innovation to remain competitive, yet their innovation processes often unfold under limited financial resources. While previous research shows that financial constraints reduce innovation activity, less is known about how such constraints shape the internal progression of innovation processes. This study examines how financial constraints influence
This study examines how the Sweden Democrats discursively construct and legitimize the recognition of Somaliland within contemporary Swedish political rhetoric. By applying the Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA) within Critical Discourse Analysis, in combination with postcolonial theory and securitization theory, the thesis investigates how recognition is framed through broader narratives concern
This thesis examines how intelligent case evaluation systems participate in the everyday production, interpretation, and enforcement of judicial norms within Chinese judicial organizations. Drawing on a qualitative documentary analysis of central-level policy documents, a published technical patent, and operational reports from courts and procuratorates, the study traces how abstract expectations
Social media platforms have become central arenas for brand communication, where visibility and performance are increasingly mediated by quantitative metrics. While these metrics are often treated as objective inputs for data-driven decision-making, less attention has been paid to the qualitative processes through which brand teams actually interpret, negotiate, and translate data into brand narra
Cancer immunotherapy targeting the CD40 receptor on antigen presenting cells (APCs) is a promising treatment strategy that promotes priming of tumor-specific T cells and can revert a suppressive tumor microenvironment. CD40 signaling in dendritic cells (DCs) has been shown to promote maturation, enhance expression of MHC, costimulatory molecules and chemokine receptors, and induce IL-12 secretion,
Length-based separation of DNA remains as relevant today as when gel electrophoresis was introduced almost 100 years ago. While new, long-read genomics technologies have revolutionised accessibility to powerful genomic data, the preparation of samples has not proceeded at the same pace, with sample preparation often constituting a considerable bottleneck, both in time and difficulty. Microfluidics
Background: Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) into plaques, aggregation of tau into neurofibrillary tangles, and neurodegenerative processes including atrophy. However, there is a poorly understood spatial discordance between initial Aβ deposition and local neurodegeneration. Objective: Here, we test the hypothesis that the cingulum bundle links Aβ depositi
