From the beginning of the 21st century, there has been a tendency to hybridize Buddhism with modern technology, which embodies rich ambiguities. At the conference AI World 2016, a robotic monk Xian’er with artificial intelligence(AI) premiered in China and was claimed as the icon of the harmony of techno-Buddhism. This paper will explore the ambiguity of Xian’er – why and how the harmony comes int
Målet med detta arbete var att rena fram proteinet Chlamydia trachomatis ribonucleotide reductase R1 Δ248. För att göra detta effektivt, med en så liten förlust av proteinet som möjligt under processen, så krävs kunskap om proteinets egenskaper. Med vetskapen att denna mutant, som saknar de första 248 aminosyrorna jämfört med den icke-muterade varianten, enbart har en ATP-kon medan den icke-muteraThe enzyme Ribonucleotide Reductase (RNR) reduces ribonucleotides (NTPs) to deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs), which are then used as building blocks in the synthesis of DNA. In this thesis are reported the expression and purification of a mutant version of Chlamydia trachomatis Ribonucleotide Reductase protein R1 , called Chlamydia trachomatis Ribonucleotide Reductase protein R1 Δ248. The R1 subunit o
STI (Soil Topografic Index) är ett hydrologiskt index som beskriver markfuktigheten i ett landskap. Då indexet är baserat på de relativt konstanta faktorerna topografi, jordens textur och jorddjup beskriver det ett generellt markfuktighetsmönster. Indexet applicerades på jordbruksmark i Helsingborgs kommun för att få kunskap om vilka områden markfuktigheten tenderar att vara låg eller hög. Vid extThe index STI describes water flow path in a landscape. Whit the help of STI it´s possible to detect areas where the soil moisture is expected to be very high or low. When comparing the result of the STI for the chosen study-area with interviews for farmers in the same area, where was a similarity between which areas the STI identified as risk for high soil moisture and which areas the farmers ide
Background Depressive disorders, specifically major depressive disorder (MDD), is predicted to become the leading cause of disease burden worldwide by 2030. In the United States, MDD is already the leading cause of disability.

The drastic changes in infrastructure and arrival of luxury tourism to South Sinai has brought the global world at the doorstep of the region’s nomadic bedouins. The ever-expanding global influence has given birth to a generation of young bedouin women who absorb the surrounding new ideals, behaviors and understandings, blending them with their tribal culture. This has created identity hybridities
Climate changes have a large impact on precipitation patterns and precipitation variability change. With this in mind, precipitation over Greenland is studied. This is done for present day precipitation model data from 1991-2010 compared to future model simulations of precipitation for 2081-2100. Furthermore, precipitation drives Surface Mass Balance (SMB), which is the sum of accumulation and the

Offentlig sektor har varit föremål för en rad olika förändringar de senaste decennierna. Intågandet av New Public Management ämnade medföra kostnadseffektiv användning av ekonomiska resurser och ökat kundfokus. Med detta följde ett rationellt ledarskap där styrning och mätbara mål förespråkades. Det har däremot inte fungerat felfritt och offentlig sektor tycks idag befinna sig i en brytpunkt där t
