What should Iceland do? We arrive at the conclusion that a currency board with the euro as the reserve currency is the best choice.

In the early era of transplantation, it was common practice to exclude diabetic patients since the outcome in such cases was usually poor. At our center in Malmö, Sweden, diabetic nephropathy was never regarded as a contraindication. During the 22-year period from 1972 to 1993, 223 renal allografts were transplanted in 189 uremic diabetics, representing 24% of all renal transplant recipients (n =

Disease gene identification is still a challenge despite modern high-throughput methods. Many diseases are very rare or lethal and thus cannot be investigated with traditional methods. Several in silico methods have been developed but they have some limitations. We introduce a new method that combines information about protein-interaction network properties and Gene Ontology terms. Genes with high

More likely a distaff than a wand The leading interpretation of five iron staffs with expanded basket handles found in women’s graves from the Viking era, including “Klintastaven”, are that they are staffs or wands of a type of Viking seeresses, völvas. This text challenges that interpretation and argues that they should be interpreted as distaffs instead. The support for the staffs being used by

Facing the urgency to tackle societal challenges, social innovations come to the fore as promising avenues due to their potential of invoking change of systems. Scholars refer to transformative social innovations in this respect: processes through which dominant institutions within a socio-material context are challenged, altered, or replaced by social innovations. Alas, turning the transformative

In a globalized world organizations and the software industry face issues in developing services for distinct markets and regions. National particularities, apart from linguistic conventions of countries and regions, constitute a pertinacious problem in software development as the implications culture have for localization are difficult to anticipate and address.
