This article is opened by explaining a specific type of hate speech: Holocaust denial. I will establish that Holocaust denial is a form of hate speech. The article is concerned with the expression of this idea by educators. I make some constructive distinctions that will help in crystallizing our treatment of teachers who are Holocaust deniers. Should we allow Holocaust deniers to teach in schools
In this paper, we compare two approaches to numerically approximate the solution of second-order Gurtin–Pipkin type of integro-differential equations. Both methods are based on a high-order Discontinous Galerkin approximation in space and the numerical inverse Laplace transform. In the first approach, we use functional calculus and the inverse Laplace transform to represent the solution. The spect
The prevalence of obesity has reached pandemic proportions, and now approximately 25% of adults in Westernized countries have obesity. Recognized as a major health concern, obesity is associated with multiple comorbidities, particularly cardiometabolic disorders. In this Review, we present obesity as an evolutionarily novel condition, summarize the epidemiological evidence on its detrimental cardi
In this thesis, I explore and conceptualise how resonance can be market-mediated. To do this, I unravel the theoretical context of past-themed consumption and marketing. My exploration is based on five standalone papers that all investigate past-themed consumption and marketing. Two of these papers are empirical and employ the context of the Danish vintage cycling community. Three papers are conce
Organizations may be confronted with both expected and unexpected events that challenge their abilities to provide these services uninterrupted. Traditional strategies based on anticipation and planning are primarily useful for expected events, but for unexpected events, organizations must develop capacities to adapt to situations and conditions not foreseen. As systems and societies are becoming
Background: Testicular torsion (TT) is a scrotal emergency that needs urgent detection for successful treatment. Purpose: To investigate the diagnostic value of acute ultrasound and the possibility of more effective detection. Material and Methods: This retrospective study included patients assessed with ultrasound for suspicion of TT between 2019 and 2023. Registration of parameters included symp
A magainin derivative, designated MSI-344, was produced in Escherichia coli as fusion protein, by utilizing a truncated amidophsphoribosyltransferase of E. coli as a fusion partner. Bacterial cells transformed with the gene encoding the fusion protein were grown to a high cell density and induced with isopropyl-1-thio-b-D-galatoside (IPTG) to initiate product expression. The fusion protein was
Fungi are one of the most diverse groups of organisms with an estimated number of species in the range of 2–3 million. The higher-level ranking of fungi has been discussed in the framework of molecular phylogenetics since Hibbett et al., and the definition and the higher ranks (e.g., phyla) of the ‘true fungi’ have been revised in several subsequent publications. Rapid accumulation of novel genomi
Pregnant women have historically and are currently being excluded from cervical cancer screening in most low and middle-income countries (LMICs). The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility and outcomes of including pregnant women in a HPV self-sampling-based screening program in Ethiopia. Pregnant women, recruited from a previously established cohort, were included. They answered a questi
In 2015 the Rockefeller Foundation-Lancet Commission defined the concept of planetary health as built on an ecological model that integrates the material, biological, social, and cultural aspects of public health and accepts the complexity and non-linearity of the dynamics of natural systems. The zoonotic COVID-19 pandemic hastened this awaking to the symbiotic nature of planetary health politics
Background: Geant4, a Monte Carlo Simulation Toolkit extensively used in bio-medical physics, is in continuous evolution to include newest research findings to improve its accuracy and to respond to the evolving needs of a very diverse user community. In 2014, the G4-Med benchmarking system was born from the effort of the Geant4 Medical Simulation Benchmarking Group, to benchmark and monitor the e
A summary of the constraints from searches performed by the ATLAS collaboration for the electroweak production of charginos and neutralinos is presented. Results from eight separate ATLAS searches are considered, each using 140 fb−1 of proton-proton data at a centre-of-mass energy of s = 13 TeV collected at the Large Hadron Collider during its second data-taking run. The results are interpreted in
Post-compression of (sub)-picosecond laser pulses down to sub-100 fs durations has become a standard approach for high-peak-power sources at a high average power [1]. Here, we propose a new post-compression geometry suited for extreme temporal compression of energetic narrowband lasers, such as diode or electrically pumped four-level systems which can deliver kW-average powers [2], but typically e
Re and Os concentrations and isotopic composition were analysed in four ultramafic cumulates from the Kedum tectonic lens within the Mylonite Zone, SW Sweden. An 1887±36 Ma isochron is obtained for six samples and interpreted to date the Kedum body. This is significantly older than the -1600-1700 Ma surrounding crust and the first rocks of Svecofennian age west of the Trans Scandinavian Igneous Be
Expands the scope of Islamic Studies to include the study of non-Muslim Islam Introduces a new concept (non-Muslim Islam) that challenges commonly held notions about the object of study within Islamic studies Invites critical thinking about how knowledge about Islam is produced in non-Muslim majority societies on both a scholarly and societal level This book empirically substantiates a re-conceptu
This article presents and discusses results from an exercise in comparative content analysis of news articles about issues of conflict produced by Afghan journalists before and after participating in an internationally sponsored training and mentorship programme in Peace Journalism. The programme was part of a Preventing Violent Extremism (PVE) project, intended to create community resources for r
Denna avhandling utforskar möjligheter och utmaningar för bildandet av transnationell feministisk solidaritet i Mellanöstern, med fokus på Egypten och Tunisien. Avhandlingen fokuserar på feministiska organisationers arbete med att bygga transnationella allianser och stödnätverk. Mer konkret utforskas hur detta arbete balanseras med önskan om att förbli förankrade på lokal nivå och centrera lokala This dissertation explores possibilities and challenges to the formation of transnational feminist solidarity in the Middle Eastern context, focusing on Egypt and Tunisia. In particular, it asks how feminist organisations balance the work towards building transnational alliances and support networks with the imperative to remain grounded at the local level and centre local communities in their wor
