High grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is accompanied by an immune-rich but heterogenous tumor microenvironment. Although tumor associated tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are linked to favourable antitumor immunity, B cells may also adopt spatial distribution patterns favourable for immune suppression. This study evaluated whether the abundance and spatial distribution patterns of CD20+ B cel
This study examines how second-generation entrepreneurs in Chinese family firms negotiate strategic autonomy through identity work. Existing research has discussed second-generation entrepreneurship, strategic autonomy, and identity construction in family firms, but it offers limited understanding of how second-generation entrepreneurs develop decision-making space while remaining embedded in fami
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to examine how local police managers in the Swedish Police Authority navigate the relationship between centrally designed management control and local operational practice. Methodology: The study follows a qualitative, abductive case study design, using the Swedish Police Authority as the empirical setting. Data were collected through semi-structured intervie
Discussions surrounding Victorian author Sheridan Le Fanu’s Carmilla (1872) have explored many of the novella’s themes, including but not limited to the Gothic vampire, queer representation and historical significance. This thesis endeavours to expand the lesser developed discourse on the novella’s ending and narration by analysing Carmilla’s ending through the lens of the “bury your gays” trope,
Organizational change is widely researched, yet less attention has been given to how planned global change unfolds across the levels and locations of a digitally coordinated multinational organization. This study investigates how a global transformation programme is interpreted, negotiated, and shaped as it moves through such a setting. The study follows an interpretive qualitative research approa
This thesis investigates how reliance on ONVIF certification, a global interoperability standard in the network video industry, influences how a large technology company organises its internal organisational structures, roles, responsibilities and resource allocation. Technical standards such as ONVIF, with adherence validated through certification processes, are widely used to promote interoperab
This study examined associations between adult attachment orientations and conflict-resolution strategies within romantic relationships using the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (APIM). Previous research has linked attachment insecurity to maladaptive conflict behaviours, but most studies have relied on individual-level designs that do not account for the interdependent nature of romantic rela
Under de senaste åren, sedan lanseringen av ChatGPT 2022, har AI-användning ökat lavinartat och kommit att förändra det akademiska landskapet. Med denna snabba adoptering har även en stor mängd forskning följt, mycket som dock snabbt dateras då AI fortsatt konstant utvecklas. Denna studie ämnar därför att undersöka variationer i attityder gentemot och an-vändning av generativ AI i studiesammanhang
This thesis contributes to the ongoing scholarly debate about the relation of individual freedom and the Swedish welfare state. The point of departure is the theory of statist individualism, as propounded by Berggren & Trägårdh, which this paper intends to quantitatively assess through individual level proxies. The research utilizes European Social Survey data from 2016 in order to create thre
Recent work by Ghose and Pinotsis (2025) reformulated the classical FitzHugh–Nagumo neuronal model as a Schrödinger-like equation. The aim of this thesis is to investigate whether the proposed equation is able to reproduce the dynamics of the original model. Results presented here show that the reformulation is capable of capturing the conservative component of the neuronal model, but not its full
Shared micromobility has been recognized as a promising contributor to sustainable urban transportation systems. Owing to their convenience and efficiency, shared e-scooters have gained widespread adoption globally and emerged as a rapidly growing mobility option. Understanding the relationship between subjective human perception of urban landscape and e-scooter usage intensity is crucial, as it c
Many circuits in integrated-circuit design require a time-shifted or multi-phase clock. In time-interleaved ADCs, multiple phases enable a higher effective aggregate sampling rate without increasing the individual clock rate. In contrast, in SerDes links, bit throughput increases while keeping each lane at a lower base clock. In 5G and 6G wireless equipment, multiple phases can be used to drive a
This thesis investigates the possibilities for simulating spray cooling in pressurizer systems in pressurized water reactors (PWRs) using OpenFOAM. Spray cooling in pressurizers is part of the mechanism for regulating the pressure. The multiphase flow associated with the process is highly complex and difficult to study experimentally due to harsh operating conditions. An improved understanding of
This thesis, informed by feminist security studies, decolonial theory, and governmentality, critically examines how women’s security is discursively conceptualized, governed, and operationalized within the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS). It argues that UNMISS protection regimes do not merely respond to pre-existing insecurity, but actively construct women’s security through gendere
This project explores how urban design can support a more inclusive, walkable and caring neighbourhood for older women in Copenhagen. Located in Refshaleøen, the project uses independently living women aged 65–75 as a critical lens for rethinking future urban development. The proposal focuses on everyday needs often overlooked in conventional planning, including slower movement, rest, safety, acc
This thesis investigates the empathic relation between the audience, as the experiencing subject, and narrative characters of a fictional story, by introducing the concept of narrative empathy. A part from elaborating this concept, the thesis seeks to empirically investigate how two different media, film and novel, modulate this relationship and which narrative categories (perspective, direct spee
Forskning har visat att kyrkans funktion inte endast är religiös. Sekularisering har påverkat olika samhällen och länder på olika sätt, i Sverige har dock sekularisering lett till att kyrkan har allt mindre betydelse som en religiös institution. Med denna bakgrund är syftet med denna uppsats att undersöka motivationen bakom ungas engagemang i Svenska kyrkan. För att undersöka detta ställs frågestä
