Partially due to years of poor water management practices in Moldova, water resources are increasingly becoming a concern. This situation is intensified by the pollution of water bodies that could be used for drinking water supply. An improvement of the water supply system in Moldova’s capital city Chisinau would result in an upgrading of water quality and hence increased health and living conditi
Högkvarteren av den satiriska tidningen Charlie Hebdo i Paris blev mål för en dödlig terrorist attack i januari 2015. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka stigmatiseringen av franska muslimer i ljuset av efterdyningarna av attacken. Denna studie undersöker elva öppna brev som skrevs av franska medborgare i samma månad som tragedin. Jag genomförde en kvalitativ innehållsanalys av breven följand
In this written study, I have researched video game music from the 90’s and early 2000’s to see what I can learn from the process of composing music for video games, as well as how the hardware and software capabilities of the game consoles shaped the music. First it presents my own background and relation to the subject, next it establishes what functionally separates video game music from conven
In this presentation, we explore courts as an emerging arena on which political and social contestations over racism take place in Sweden. The presentation is part of a larger project where we analyze cases in which political struggles against and about racism have moved into courts. The overall purpose is to understand what kind of space courts provide for protection from and debate about racism,
This master’s thesis explores everyday life on the islands Asperö and Brännö, located in the South archipelago of Gothenburg. Although the islands are part of the Gothenburg municipality, their geographical separation creates unique, place-specific challenges, while also the boundedness of the islands' isolation fosters a sense of community among residents. The aim of the study is to gain an u
When children display disruptive behaviour problems at school or at home, their re-lationships with others are affected. Taking a systems perspective into account, where all parts of a system mutually in uence each other, and considering the reciprocal nature of interactions which imply that children are in uenced by and in uence their close surroundings, the present study seeks to examine differeWhen children display disruptive behaviour problems at school or at home, their relationships with others are affected. Taking a systems perspective into account, where all parts of a system mutually influence each other, and considering the reciprocal nature of interactions which imply that children are influenced by and influence their close surroundings, the present study seeks to examine diffe
This paper presents a measurement of jet-track correlations in photon-jet events, using 1.72 (Formula presented) of (Formula presented) data at (Formula presented) recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Events with energetic photon-jet pairs are selected, where the photon and jet are approximately back-to-back in azimuth. The angular correlation between jets and charged-particle tracks with
This paper outlines the development of the specialist medical physicist role in Sweden. Since introducing certification in 1999, the need for advanced expertise in patient safety, technology, optimization, and regulation became evident. In response, the Swedish Medical Physicist Association and the Swedish Society for Radiation Physics launched a national specialist training program in 2004, furth
The underlying mechanisms for statin-induced myopathy (SIM) are still equivocal. In this study, we employ Drosophila melanogaster to dissect possible underlying mechanisms for SIM. We observe that chronic fluvastatin treatment causes reduced general locomotion activity and climbing ability. In addition, transmission microscopy of dissected skeletal muscles of fluvastatin-treated flies reveals stro
Background: There is limited research on prevention of mental ill-health of school personnel and the systematic management of school work environments. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of implementing the guideline recommendations for the prevention of mental ill-health in schools, in particular, whether there was a difference in adherence to guideline recommendations between
Urbanization transforms environments in ways that alter biological evolution. We examined whether urban environmental change drives parallel evolution by sampling 110,019 white clover plants from 6169 populations in 160 cities globally. Plants were assayed for a Mendelian antiherbivore defense that also affects tolerance to abiotic stressors. Urban-rural gradients were associated with the evolutio
This contribution analyses the first decision by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) on the qualification and regulation of stand-alone software as medical devices. Referring to the facts of the case and the applicable EU regulatory framework, the Court specifically found that prescription support software may constitute a medical device. This would even be the case where the softwar
