Holism is a term charged with multiple meanings. Coined by statesman and botanistJan Smuts in 1926, it was mainly used in academia until its public breakthrougharound 1980. This article examines the interdisciplinary circulation of holism in science during its first sixty years of existence, focusing on ecology, psychology, medicine, social science, pedagogy, and philosophy. While primarily an e
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to critically investigate how automotive companies reposition in relation to electrification on the market, and how the different types of repositioning affect the current customers. Methodology: This research paper uses a qualitative case study approach to explore how Jaguar, Kia, and BMW reposition their brand identities in response to electrification. Secon
Technology has become a vital part of people’s lives. Mobile phones, smart phones, social media platforms, apps and other internet-connected devices and software have changed our way of interacting with each other, as well as managing everyday tasks. In this article, the use of such technology is discussed in relation to its integration in the lives of women who are victims of domestic violence. T
During host colonization, bacteria use the alarmones (p)ppGpp to reshape their proteome by acting pleiotropically on DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis. Here, we elucidate how the initiating ribosome senses the cellular pool of guanosine nucleotides and regulates the progression towards protein synthesis. Our results show that the affinity of guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and the inhibitory concentrat
We introduce a new method to calculate dark matter halo density profiles from simulations. Each particle is ‘smeared’ over its orbit to obtain a dynamical profile that is averaged over a dynamical time, in contrast to the traditional approach of binning particles based on their instantaneous positions. The dynamical and binned profiles are in good agreement, with the dynamical approach showing a s
Min forskning är inriktad på att studera det medfödda immunsystemet vid kroniska lungsjukdomar. I synnerhet undersöks patofysiologiska mekanismer i samband med exponering för allergener och mikrobiella patogener (virus och bakterier) vid astma och KOL. Forskningen är translationell och inbegriper såväl kliniska data och patientprover som cellsystem och djurmodeller. Forskningen bedrivs i nära samaMy research focuses on the importance of innate immunity in chronic pulmonary diseases. In particular, pathophysiologic mechanisms during exposure to allergens and microbial pathogens (viruses and bacteria) in asthma and COPD. The research is translational and includes clinical data and samples from the patients as well as cellular studies and animal models. Currently, I collaborate closely with t

The wide and increasing range of screen sizes between Android devices makes consumers use them very differently. Large devices (like televisions) are more suitable to view content and smaller devices (like smart watches) are to be used more as a quick controller of the main application. Distributed user interfaces is the concept of utilizing several of these de- vices in one application, so that e
Histopathological classification of lung cancer is of central importance in the diagnostic routine and guides therapy in the majority of patients. The 4(th) edition of the WHO classification was recently published and includes changes to the diagnostic procedure of non-small cell carcinomas (NSCC) with more emphasis on immunohistochemical (IHC) staining.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) affects around 1.5% of newborns in Sweden with few late detected cases (0.12 per 10,000). The most common treatment for DDH in Sweden is with the von Rosen splint, with radiographs at 3 and 12 months of age. Little is known about the remodeling of acetabular dysplasia following treatment initiated in the neonatal period. We aimed to
The risk of above-ankle reamputation following a transmetatarsal amputation is around 30%. Patient selection may be crucial to achieve good outcomes, and to avoid futile operations and suffering. We are aware of no previous comparison between the two largest patient groups that undergo lower extremity amputations: patients with diabetes, and patients with non-diabetic peripheral artery disease.

Sustainable and resilient infrastructure projects are necessary for Africa if the continent is to be successful in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and agenda 2063 of the African Union (AU). The paradigm shift towards a low-carbon society cannot be achieved without sustainable and efficient infrastructure that can withstand the effects of climate change. This chapter discusses th
This study shows how six different European forests react during the summer to abnormally warm temperatures, from 1996 to 2006. With the forecasted increase of summer temperatures over Europe, the carbon balance of forests – photosynthesis (GPP), ecosystem respiration and Net Ecosystem Exchange - in likely to change. In this thesis, the photosynthesis and the respiration of six European forests w

Dark matter is estimated to make up around 25% of the Universe, but it is not known what dark matter is. In particle physics, mediators of dark matter are used to model interactions of dark matter particles with known particles (Standard Model particles). These mediator particles can be produced from two quarks or gluons in high-energetic proton-proton collisions, and decay immediately back into S
With the increasing interactions between Sweden and China, it is interesting to see how people of these two countries handle their intercultural communication. Based on my internship experiences, where I encountered many cases of intercultural communication between Sweden and China, this thesis presents some contributions to a better understanding of Swedish‐Sino communications.
