I have investigated some of the biological regulatory mechanisms governing the development of crystalline lenses. I used fish as model animals because they possess optically interesting lenses, while the geometrical simplicity of fish lenses allows for studies that are difficult or impossible with the lenses of other animals.First we have investigated lens optical plasticity by measuring longitudi
The aim of this work was to study possible effects of environmental radiation pollution on plants. The association between cellular telephone (short duration, higher amplitude) and base station (long duration, very low amplitude) radiation exposure and the growth rate of soybean (Glycine max) seedlings was investigated. Soybean seedlings, pre-grown for 4 days, were exposed in a gigahertz transvers
This thesis contributes to the field of business model innovation and organizational change within incumbent firms by applying a process-oriented approach to investigate servitization. In particular, it seeks to improve understanding of the elements that influence this process, namely the use of past learning, organizational culture, and organizational readiness within incumbent firms.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar äganderättens skydd enligt Artikel 1 första tilläggsprotokollet till Europakonventionen om de mänskliga rättigheterna.The Nordic constitutions secure the right to property. A fundamental issue under the constitutional provisions guaranteeing the right to property has traditionally been how to distinguish between interference with property rights which come under their scope and those which do not and hence in principle do not enjoy any constitutional protection. This approach has its counterpart in American const

Seals and sea lions are well-oriented in their habitat, the coastal regions and oceans, and are, moreover, successful hunters. During their movements between haul-out places and foraging grounds as well as during foraging, the sensory systems of seals and sea lions provide useful information, although the animals, and thus their sensory systems, face considerable challenges in their habitat and du
One factor which can be expected to influence performance in applications where the user is expected to point a device in some direction to obtain information is the angle interval in which the user gets feedback. The present study was performed in order to get a better understanding of the influence of this angle interval on navigation performance. Results indicate that users are able to handle q
Global change may substantially affect biodiversity and ecosystem functioning but little is known about its effects on essential biotic interactions. Since different environmental drivers rarely act in isolation it is important to consider interactive effects. Here, we focus on how two key drivers of anthropogenic environmental change, climate change and the introduction of alien species, affect p
COVID-19 patients often display dysfunctions of the nervous system, indicating an effect of SARS-CoV-2 on neural cells. Yang et al. now show that human stem-cell-derived dopaminergic neurons are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2, triggering inflammation and senescence. The study further identifies three FDA-approved drugs capable of reversing these cellular phenotypes.
While research indicates that indoor lighting, exposure to daylight, physical activity, and sleep interact to influence functioning, mood, and daily rhythm, strategies are needed to support behavioral changes among older adults who often spend more time at home after retirement. The objective was to design a web-based course to encourage behavior change related to light, activity, and sleep. Groun
The breakdown of relations between China and the US has prompted Beijing to shore up existing friendships, and seek new ones.
Osteoporos drabbar till övervägande del äldre kvinnor och dess kliniska konsekvens - fraktur - resulterar i smärta, förlorad självständighet och för tidig död. I vår forskning undersöker vi hur genetiska faktorer och omgivningsfaktorer bidrar till skelettstyrka hos unga vuxna och hos äldre kvinnor. Tonvikten ligger på att definiera gener, åldersrelaterade interaktioner mellan gen och miljö och intOsteoporosis predominantly, but not exclusively affects older women and its clinical consequence, fracture, results in pain, lost independence and premature death. In our research we investigate the genetic and non-genetic factors contributing to skeletal strength in young adults, men and elderly women, with an emphasis on defining the genes, age related gene-environment interactions and interact
