Despite the significant advances in cancer genomics, identifying all cancer drivers (CDs) remains a challenge. Most of the existing approaches rely heavily on mutational data, while emerging research has started to put focus on epigenetic regulation in cancer development. This is why the OriGENE model —a convolutional neural network (CNN) was developed to classify CDs based on H3K4me3 histone modi
Purpose: The objective of this study is to explore sojourners’ acculturation process within the context of retail spaces and gain a deeper understanding of market-mediated spaces in consumer acculturation. Methodology: The study employed a qualitative research approach. In total, 15 semi-structured interviews with sojourners from eight Asian countries were conducted. The analysis of the data was g
Effective methods for locating formally protected capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus) lek sites in the Swedish forest landscape are essential for targeted conservation measures. This study aimed to develop a multi-scale habitat suitability model for capercaillie lek sites in the northern Swedish forest counties, and further evaluate its potential to identify priority areas for future field survey effo
This thesis examines how coaching shapes the learning experience in incubator programs, drawing on the perspectives of both coaches and early-stage entrepreneurs. While coaching is often positioned as a core learning intervention within incubators, its actual role in entrepreneurial learning remains insufficiently understood. Based on eleven semi-structured interviews with participants from incuba
Föreningslivet på både skol- och universitetsnivå har en stark ställning i USA och är väl utforskat, vilket skiljer sig från den svenska gymnasiala kontexten där det råder en begränsad mängd forskning på området. Denna kunskapslucka väckte intresset för att undersöka föreningslivets påverkan på gymnasieskolor i Sverige. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur elever upplever föreningslivets påve
This thesis investigates the trends of subnational economic development in Vietnam from 2018 to 2023 to test for economic convergence on a regional scale in addition to analysing the extent to which local institutions lead to differing economic outcomes. The findings of this paper suggests that there existed a wide gap in the economic performance of Vietnamese provinces at the start of the period
In this thesis, the aim is to gain an understanding of Skanör-Falsterbo’s decline by studying economy, demography, politics, environment, and the medieval categorization of the towns and comparing them to Malmö and Åhus. I have done so by using urban theory together with social practice theory where I have adapted a social-ecological-system. I have conducted this study by using historical sources,
This paper examines the evolution of the return premium associated with corporate PAC contributions among S&P 500 firms between 1993 and 2024, and assesses whether political giving continues to yield financially meaningful payoffs. A panel of 500 large-cap firms (per year) is analyzed using OLS firm and year fixed-effects regressions. Key regressors include continuous PAC-donation amounts, int
The Palestinian refugee question is one of the most protracted and politically charged refugee crises of modern times and in modern history. Palestinian refugees in Lebanon have endured generations of statelessness, constrained by exclusionary legal frameworks. This study examines the condition of statelessness among Palestinian refugee youth in Lebanon and the formation of political agency and ev
This study examines the relationship between Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance and stock returns within the STOXX Europe 600 Index over the period 2019–2024. A balanced panel dataset was constructed by applying a frozen basket approach including 465 firms with continuous index membership and complete ESG data from Refinitiv Eikon. The analysis evaluates whether ESG scores, t
This thesis examines how psychological contracts and psychological safety shape the psychological constructs often associated with employee retention, based on insights from Danske Bank. As competition for talent intensifies, organisations must work on strengthening their understanding of the influences on employee retention. Despite the growing popularity of the concept of psychological safety in
With rapidly developing digitalization and the growing popularity of online learning platforms, understanding the psychological drivers behind user loyalty has become increasingly critical. This thesis investigates how Flow Experience, defined as a deep state of intense enjoyment, focus, and concentration, shapes user satisfaction and user attitudinal loyalty in the context of online learning
Purpose: This study pursues a purpose rooted in the research gap of brand perception of passive stakeholders, to address the under-explored role of passive stakeholders, particularly recruiters, in shaping and reshaping university perception. Research question: In which ways do brand perceptions differ between active and passive stakeholders of higher-educational institutional brands? Methodolo
Det sker en ökning av dödliga polisskjutningar i USA och det är även ett problem i Sverige. Tidigare forskning finns kring polisskjutningar i jämförelser mellan länder, men det saknas något komparativt mellan USA och Sverige. Syftet med denna studie att få en bild av förekomsten av dödliga polisskjutningar i USA och Sverige samt se om det finns variabler som har något samband med dessa skjutningar
Soil moisture is an essential climate variable, with applications in i.e. climate modelling and drought- and flood forecasting. The soil moisture in the rootzone (RZSM), 0-100cm depth, is especially important, compared to soil moisture at the surface (SSM), 0-5cm in depth. Large data gaps still exist for RZSM, as it cannot be directly observed through remote sensing. As such, modelling, and theref
This Master's Thesis examines the possibility of developing a software tool for optimizing offshore wind power plant layouts in regards to wake effects. The study was conducted with the purpose of making development and operation of offshore wind power plants more efficient and cost effective. The tool, named OptiWind, was developed in Python and employs several imported packages for mathemati
This thesis in collaboration with ESS proposes a workflow for developing, deploying, and integrating machine learning models into the control system. Machine learning offers a promising potential for control systems but often introduces technical debt, with the actual model code representing only a small fraction of the total code base. To address this a data-centric process is proposed for retrie
In the 1970s young danish people moved into abandoned military barracks in Christianshavn which started a squatting movement that gave rise to the area called Christiania, a semi-autonomous society where internal informal norms are prominent. Pusherstreet in Christiania has always received a lot of attention in the media with its open cannabis market. The market closed multiple times and has resi
