In the midst of a global shift in world politics induced by the rise of emerging powers, the outdated and unequal international financial institutions (IFIs) that were set up after World War II are increasingly being challenged and scrutinized. International actors can use IFIs in numerous ways to enhance their position in the world system. For instance, they can be used as a vehicle to launder st
Med avstamp i de faktorer som i strategin för Nationell eHälsa påstås ha stor påverkan på användbarhet undersöker studien vilka användarkrav en användargrupp ställer på elektroniska journalsystem. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten är att användbarhet endast kan mätas i en specifik verksamhet; användbarhet är inte generaliserbart. Användbarhet handlar om att förenkla för användare och deras arbetssitua

Political ecology research has been prone to link conservation efforts and development programmes with structural relations such as neoliberal political economy. This thesis argues that this linkage is a too simplistic judgment and that more nuanced contextual understandings of the impacts of conservation programmes are needed. It does this by contextualizing the links between international conser
Haematopoietic stem cells are the source of all blood components including T-cells. When the T-cell programme is initiated in these cells, the expression of T-cell associated genes such as TCF7 is up-regulated, while genes opposing this fate are turned off. Subsequently, epigenetic marks on the gene BCL11B and its regulatory elements, disabling the expression of the gene, are removed and the trans
Parkinson's disease is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases, and stem cell therapy can be used to reduce patient's symptoms. In this therapy, dopamine producing neurons are transplanted into the patient's brain, after being derived from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). To understand current protocols for this process and to find new ones, it is necessary to understand the ge

Med etnografins hjälp undersöker Johansson hur den platta organisationsstrukturen i relation till normer och (samhällets) maktordningar verkar. Med deltagande observatio
