Background:Preparing for the end of life is believed to help mitigate emotional suffering for both patients and their caregivers. However, empirical evidence on the emotional benefits of feeling prepared for death remains limited.Aim:This study uses data from the international iLIVE project to examine how perceived end-of-life preparedness is associated with emotional suffering among patients and
With the artistic research project Costume Dramaturgies we investigate the dramaturgy that emerges when performance takes an unconventional starting point: a costume – a thing.This one year project is a continuation of the artistic research project Costume Agency (2018–2023), with a deepened focus on dramaturgy.By approaching dramaturgy as an assembly of things, we shift perspective from the human

Performance Walk with Interconnected BodiesIn Community Walk, it is the garments that set the framework. In pairs, you move out into the landscape—physically connected by a specially designed costume created by the playful artist Charlotte Østergaard. She guides you in exploring and challenging the costume together.The costume creates a new relation between you, shaping how you move forward. You f
For decades, scholars have debated the decline in political trust as both an indicator and a driver of democratic crisis and civic disengagement. The focus of this previous research has been primarily on how political trust can be bolstered or maintained. Drawing on research from interpersonal and organizational mutual trust, we argue, however, that political trust is not only influenced by govern
This keynote explores the borderlands of costume through the “corpo colectivo” (collective body) experiments (Lepecki 2017) initiated by Brazilian artist Lygia Clark (1920–1988) in the 1970s and Dutch textile artist Maria Blaisse’s (born 1944) ‘study of form and material possibilities’ (Marshall 2024, 144). These practices challenge conventional notions of costume offering ways to rethink costume
Craft-performance at the opening of the exhibition Becomings is a performative exploration of the Danish concept fællesskabelse—a term that combines community and creation to describe processes in which something new emerges through being and making together. Unlike co-creation, where participants contribute predefined parts to a shared task, fællesskabelse focuses on the forming of the community
Water resources are a critical societal issue. As they are more and more limited, their distribution, usage and contamination are of vital importance. In the Beauce region, there are concerns on both the water quality and quantity because of farming and the related groundwater contamination. Since water is a vector of contamination, these questions require a precise vadose zone water content chara
We present an innovative hydrogeophysical approach for non-invasive quantification of the unsaturated water flow. For the water content measurements, we apply the Magnetic Resonance Sounding (MRS) method in the time-lapse mode. For inversion of MRS measurements, we approximate the subsurface by a horizontally stratified media. Laterally, the MRS estimated water content is averaged over the area be
Denna artikel undersöker hur vardagliga och samhälleliga föreställningar om vatten som resurs ges uttryck i Sverige i en tid av ökande klimatförändringar och andra utmaningar. Artikeln tar utgångspunkt i frågelistan Vatten som resurs (Folklivsarkivet, 2025), som är framtagen inom forskningsprojektet Gröna tjänster och värdeskapande vatten. Genom över hundra insamlade utsagor analyseras hur människ
EHLSA har visat att en ökad kraftsamling kring källsorterat avlopp, etableringen av ett innovationsekosystem, och systemdemonstratorer tillsammans kan, om detgörs på rätt sätt, skapa en katalysator för omställningen från linjärt till cirkulärt VA. Dagens omställningssystem fungerar långt ifrån optimalt och syntesen föreslår fyra huvudsakliga utvecklingspunkter:• Gå från ett innovationsekosystem ti
Advances in liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry have significantly improved proteomic analyses of human plasma. However, information at the level of intact proteoforms remains limited due to the high dynamic range of protein abundance and the complexity of post-translational modifications. To address this challenge, we introduce soluble plasma proteoform analysis via acetonitrile precipitation
The present study was motivated by the unusually large differences in solubility observed between two polymorphic forms of an antibiotic active pharmaceutical ingredient, oxytetracycline hydrochloride. These differences significantly exceed typical polymorphic solubility variations. Through detailed structural analysis, we demonstrate that forms I and II are not true polymorphs but pseudopolymorph
The emergence of large language models (LLMs) has made it easier than ever to create chatbots capable of generating human-like responses to user inputs. Moreover, improvements in text-to-speech and speech-to-text make it possible to converse with these systems, not just in text but also through speech. These improvements have led to an increase in chatbot applications across various contexts, such
