There is no consensus on how to define and measure green growth. Consequently, we can neither state if growth is actually green nor econometrically explore important questions such as what determines green growth. This thesis takes a three-step approach to move one step closer to a unifying longitudinal cross-country measure of green growth. It analyzes how green growth has been quantitatively mea

This paper sought to examine the experiences of an intimate partner violence policy, created in order to spread both awareness and implications to act among residents of apartment communities. The initiative, called Huskurage, has been introduced in a Swedish crime prevention context. When implemented, the policy engages neighbors to look out for each other. Our study scrutinizes the experiences o

Gör kategoriseringen det hållbara valet lättare? Vi har alla någon gång känt oss så överväldigad av information inför ett beslut, att vi inte kan ta ett. Hållbarhetsfrågans komplexitet och omfattning kan ibland vara så överväldigande att vi blir handlingsförlamade, vilket resulterar i att hållbarhetsaspekten trycks åtsidan vid beslutsfattanden. För att kunna genomföra en samhällsomställning mot eThe growing mountain of electronic waste is a threat to human health and an unsustainable handling of our finite natural resources. With the aim to decrease the creation of waste, including electronic, the EU have decided to separate resource use from economic growth by supporting the transition to a circular economy. The inclusion of the private sector in the financing of this transition is cruci

In the framework of this thesis, the optimization of the etching process of GaN for FinFET applications has been investigated. FinFETs are transistors with a vertical architecture in the shape of fins. These fins are fabricated by etching a pattern into a GaN substrate. The etching is carried out in two steps, a dry etch and a wet etch. In this thesis, these etching steps have been carried out whi

The demand for alternative sources of protein has increased; the so-called “protein shift” is an inevitability. Mycoprotein, a foodstuff produced from the mycelium of filamentous fungi, has gained popularity among consumers. Mycoprotein is grown in submerged culture, in either a simple or a complex, undefined medium. Strategies for yield increase in either medium were studied in this paper. For s

This study emphasizes the significance of social media influencer traits, such as expert, trustworthiness, likeability, and homophily, in determining the legitimacy of social media influencers as a formative construct in Sweden's fashion sector. It successfully instils brand image in customers, which leads to purchase intentions. More decisively, brand image influences the link between the tru

Recombinant protein expression of Cas9 was performed at BioInvent International AB using prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems. For the eukaryotic expression, two types of mammalian cells were used namely HEK293 cells and CHO cells. The first expressions were performed using the pIRO-KL vector encoding the kappa leader secretory sequence. The kappa secretory sequence is responsible for tra

För företag är information en viktig tillgång, varav informationssäkerhet är en angelägenhet för alla företag oavsett företagsstorlek. Även mikroföretag drabbas av cyberattacker, men i jämförelse med större företag har de begränsat med resurser att allokera till informationssäkerhet. En konsekvens av detta är att informationssäkerhet i allmänhet hanteras av en lekman. Det förekommer studier som ar

Commercialization has been recognized as one of the most difficult phases of the innovation process. Failure rates are high, even for products with the potential to address real needs and deliver real customer value. This master's thesis explores commercialization in an even more challenging business context than the typical case. First, the innovating company is an early startup with limited

G protein-coupled receptors are the biggest family of membrane bound receptor in the human genome, they are also target for many drugs due to their accessible location in the cell membrane. We have characterized the G protein recruitment of the succinate receptor 1 (SUCNR1/GPR91). GPR91 was deorphanized in 2004 and already then it was suggested that GPR91 could couple to the Gi-family and the Gq-f

Studiens syfte var att undersöka hur tonåriga pojkar (årskurs 1 på gymnasiet) beskriver och upplever välbefinnande, vilken roll olika faktorer spelar för deras välbefinnande och vilka strategier de själva erfarit kan hjälpa dem vid utmanande situationer. Detta undersöktes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med nio pojkar från en gymnasieskola. Materialet kodades och analyserades med Interpretative

The following paper illuminates the difficulties that people with criminal background may experience in the process of labour market (re)integration. While employment for offenders released from prison is important to avoid former criminal lifestyle, previous literature shows that offenders released from prison face various difficulties to secure a job. Drawing on theories on stigmatization, l

With the ambition to contribute to a sustainable development, this project started with aim to recycle fiber boards. The idea behind the project is to take lose fibers that come from waste product or simply just worn out fiber boards, and make them into new fiber boards. In order to achieve this, a binder is needed to hold the boards together. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate different binde

With increasing age, it is common to experience decline in some cognitive abilities. To some degree, this is a natural cause of changes in structure and function in the brain. However, the cognitive decline can sometimes be extensive and develop into Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia that heavily impacts the life quality of the affected individual. Various approaches to curb the deve
