Våra samhällen och liv är i allt större utsträckning datafierade, och formade av insamling, analys och användning av digitala data. Då detta föränderliga datalandskap innebär nya möjligheter till kunskap och handling, så medför det också nya former av svårigheter och risker. Denna kurs ger en introduktion till kritiska perspektiv på datafiering och hur det påverkar vårt sätt att leva och nå kunskaOur societies and lives are to an increasing extent datafied, and shaped by means of collecting, analysing and utilising digital data. As this transforming data landscape offers new opportunities for knowledge and action, it also involves novel forms of concerns and risks. This course offers an introduction to critical perspectives on datafication, how it impacts ways of knowing and living, and it

Korruption är ett svårfångat begrepp som behöver studeras och förstås ur multidisciplinära perspektiv. Med denna uppfattning som grund syftar kursen till att introducera studenterna för globala och tvärvetenskapliga perspektiv på området för korruptions-, och antikorruptionsstudier. Mer specifikt undersöker den uppkomsten, förklaringen, fortlevnaden och närvaron av korruptionen ur olika samhällsveCorruption is a multifaceted concept that needs to be studied and understood from many perspectives. From this point of departure, this course aims to introduce the students to global and transdisciplinary perspectives in the area of corruption and anticorruption studies. More specifically, the course examines the emergence, existence and explanation of corruption from different social sciences pe

The course is divided into four parts where the first part provides a basic understanding of the region’s socio-cultural processes. The historical context and its impact on contemporary South-East Asian societies are discussed. It discusses religion as a field of meanings that informs individual people’s lives and strengthens social and political identities, and influences social and political disThe course is divided into four parts where the first part provides a basic understanding of the region’s socio-cultural processes.

The dendritic cell (DC) lineage encompasses a diverse population of cells with unique subtype-specific functions. In peripheral blood, four DC subsets have been identified based on their distinct expression of CD1c, CD141, CD16, and CD123, and these subpopulations exhibit functional properties in immune responses. However, their respective roles in allergic diseases, such as rhinitis, are unclear.

Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) remains a leading cause of transfusionrelated deaths. In most cases, anti-leukocyte antibodies in the transfusion product trigger TRALI, but not all anti-leukocyte antibodies cause TRALI. It has been shown that the anti-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antibody 34-1-2S (anti-H-2Kd) causes TRALI in BALB/c mice (MHC class I haplotype H-2Kd)

Background and Purpose-We have previously shown that delivery of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) through direct intrahippocampal gene transduction with a viral vector suppresses the formation of new dentate granule cells triggered by global forebrain ischemia. Here, we investigated whether inhibition of endogenous BDNF alters ischemia-induced neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus. Methods-Rat
