Ever since Goldin-Meadow, S., C. Mylander, W. C. So, and A. Özyürek. 2008. The natural order of events: How speakers of different languages represent events nonverbally. PNAS 105: 9163–9168. proposed that there is a preferred order in sequential non-verbal event representations (Actor > Patient > Act), apparently independent of the default word order in one’s native language, the topic has been th
The workshop brings together differing perspectives on what makes research data possible. How data is made represents an on-going negotiation between a number of elements. It reflects, firstly, the nature of disciplines and thecomplex way this is linked to cultures of research data and data sharing. Secondly, data is made across the complex temporalities within different practices of its managemen
This paper deals with those provisions of the new EU Regulation No. 2015/848 on Insolvency Proceedings (Recast) that create a system of national insolvency registers and establish a decentralized system for the interconnection of such registers by means of the European e-Justice Portal.
This chapter presents the Development Policy Evaluation Model (DEVPEM), a new simulation model which captures four critical aspects of rural economies in developing countries: 1) the role of the household as both a producer and a consumer of food crops; 2) high transaction costs of participating in markets; 3) market linkages among heterogeneous rural producers and consumers; 4) the imperfect conv
Popular Abstract in English Among the forms of life found in extreme environments (e.g. high temperatures ‘thermo’ and oxygen deficient ‘anaerobe’), the thermoanaerobic bacteria emerge as a highly evolved and interesting subject of study. Bacteria living as microbial mats in decaying plant material possess a great potential not only to degrade complex biomass but also to produce special chemicals.A novel ethanol-producing thermoanaerobe Caloramator boliviensis 45BT (=DSM 22065T, =CCUG 57396T) was isolated from a hot spring of the Bolivian highlands. C. boliviensis possesses the ability to utilize a wide range of substrates and can efficiently convert hexoses and pentoses into ethanol with concomitant production of acetate, carbon dioxide and hydrogen as by-products of fermentation. However
With the emergence of Green Chemistry, biocatalysis is becoming an important approach in many laboratory and industrial processes. Enzymes catalyse chemical reactions with high regio- and stereoselectivity at mild conditions and, most importantly, are able to form products that are not possible to obtain by conventional synthetic chemistry. Monooxygenases are a fascinating group of enzymes which o
Popular AbstractAvhandlingen tar sin empiriska utgångspunkt i en analys av hur historiskt betingade värden hanteras i samtida planering samt natur- och kulturmiljövård. Syftet är att därigenom förtydliga förutsättningarna för en hållbar landskapsutveckling avseende landskapets historiska värden. Analysen tar sin teoretiska utgångspunkt i tidsgeografi och kritisk realism. Perspektiven har använts fThis thesis is based on an analysis of how historically motivated values are treated in contemporary planning- and conservation practices. The aim is to discuss the premises of a sustainable landscape development regarding historical landscapes and heritage. The analysis takes its theoretical point of departure in time-geography and critical realism. These perspectives have been used to develop a
Various studies have highlighted older persons' problems in potentially failing to keep pace with developments in information technology and the latest technologies that prevent physical and social loss. In contrast to such studies that treat users as static and technology as changing, it's important to understand the use of technology can change over time. For example, older persons have used tec
Background and aims: In the elderly, balance and walking impairments are assumed to play an important role in causing falls. We have assessed prospectively the predictive ability of health, function and balance variables regarding falls and their location. Methods: Falls which occurred during one year in a random sample of 307 women aged 75 years and over (mean 80.8 years, response rate 74.5%) liv
It was believed that Cdk2-cyclin E complexes are essential to drive cells through the G1-S phase transition. However, it was discovered recently that the mitotic kinase Cdk1 (Cdc2a) compensates for the loss of Cdk2. In the present study, we tested whether Cdk2 can compensate for the loss of Cdk1. We generated a knockin mouse in which the Cdk2 cDNA was knocked into the Cdk1 locus (Cdk1Cdk2KI). Subs
INTRODUCTION: Central venous catheterisation is a common procedure in intensive care therapy and the use of central venous catheters is essential for treatment of many medical disorders. Although rare, central venous catheterisation is associated with mechanical complications that can be life-threatening if untreated. Real-time ultrasound guidance reduces the incidence of mechanical complications
Although self-harm is a common behavior and exists in many contexts, previous research on tolerance and attitudes has focused primarily on health care providers. Less is known about tolerance toward self-harm in the general population. To the best of our knowledge, there is currently no scale assessing public tolerance toward self-harm. For this purpose, a brief scale was constructed and tested fo
Background: Increased inflammation is reported in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), which may be more pronounced in suicidal subjects. Vitamin D deficiency may drive this pro-inflammatory state due to vitamin D's anti-inflammatory effects. Methods: We quantified plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and inflammatory markers interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and other inflammatory
