Efficient intracellular delivery of nucleic acid cargo remains a major challenge for lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-based delivery systems. Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) have been proposed as a possible strategy to improve this delivery process, but their efficiency is still limited by intracellular barriers, especially endosomal escape. In this thesis, CPP-mediated nucleic acid delivery was investig
Regulatory frameworks within digital markets create both challenges and opportunities for small and medium-sized software-as-a-service (SaaS) ventures operating under resource constraints. This study explores how decision-makers within SaaS ventures make sense of regulatory frameworks and how these interpretations influence organizational strategic responses. Using a qualitative and interpretivist
The military and defense industry is a historically stigmatized industry, but many argue that public opinion has changed since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Organizational stigma, the widespread negative perception of firms due to their activities or the industries they operate in, affects a firm's relationships with external partners. While previous research has discussed its influence on bra
This thesis examines whether the institutional monetary policy regime influences corporate risk-taking by comparing publicly listed firms operating under the European Central Bank (ECB) with firms in European countries that retain monetary sovereignty. While previous literature has established that monetary policy affects corporate investment and risk-taking through changes in financing conditions
Automated pollen classification is challenging because visually similar species may differ only by subtle morphological characteristics. This thesis investigates deep-learning models for classifying microscopic pollen-grain images from ten plant species using RGB image crops together with two segmentation-derived size measurements: the major and minor axes of the pollen grain. The study builds on
This master’s thesis was done in collaboration with Thule Group during the spring of 2026. The purpose was to perform a concept development process in Child Restraint Systems (CRS), more commonly known as child car seats. These products are strictly related to crash safety as well as child ergonomics. Therefore, installations of CRS are important to ensure correct system status, meaning that the p
This thesis explores how growing political debates and pushback affect how Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies are understood and carried out within two Nordic banks, in Sweden and Denmark. Even though the region has a strong international reputation for equality, which often turns into a “myth of completed equality” that creates complacency and “gender fatigue”, DEI initiatives still
Customer data has become increasingly important in international fashion retail. However, existing research provides limited understanding of how CRM supported customer knowledge becomes strategically relevant in physical store market-entry decisions. This is particularly important in multinational fashion subsidiaries where customer knowledge is not generated through CRM alone. It is also shaped
Research Question: How do first-time indie game founders construct a founder identity while navigating the tension between creative authenticity and commercial imperatives during the early-stage incubation process? Methodology: Qualitative, abductive, interpretivist study. Twelve semi-structured interviews with first-time indie game founders across the Swedish games incubation ecosystem analysed u
This thesis has through a comparative analysis, of a preindustrial clothing culture and a postindustrial clothing culture, researched if it is possible to implement a preindustrial clothing usage in todays society, in order to create a more sustainable future in fashion. This was done through an analysis and comparison of wardrobe studies from both periods, with the usage of three terms and theori
The Baltic Sea is a semi-enclosed basin characterized by its brackish water and unique biodiversity. However, it is also one of the most polluted seas in the world and is exposed to multiple environmental stressors, including eutrophication, overfishing, and climate change. Freshwater and coastal browning have been observed across the Northern Hemisphere, although the cause and dynamics of brownif

Bukarest är en av de mest jordbävningshotade huvudstäderna i Europa. Dess stadskärna innehåller höga koncentrationer av gamla och sårbara byggnader, av vilka många klassificerades i seismisk klass I eller II efter den seismiska händelsen 1977 som uppstod i Vrancea-regionen (i Rumänien). Vissa av dessa byggnader kategoriseras endast som monument, medan en del av dem klassificeras som historiska. I Bucharest represents one of the most earthquake-endangered capitals in Europe. Its civic center contains high concentrations of old and vulnerable buildings, many of which were classified in seismic classes I or II after the 1977 seismic event that originated from the Vrancea region (in Romania). Some of these buildings are categorized only as monuments, with a fraction of them being classified as
Hot, hat och trakasserier mot politiker har under senare år uppmärksammats som ett växande samhällsproblem med konsekvenser för såväl enskilda politiker som för den demokratiska processen. Tidigare forskning visar att utsattheten kan leda till bland annat oro, självcensur och förändrade beteenden. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur politiker i Sverige förklarar och tolkar erfarenheter av hot,

As global population growth drives up food demand, approximately 40% of produced food is still wasted rather than consumed. This waste is largely driven by rigid aesthetic and quality requirements established by marketing standards, resellers, and consumer expectations. This study was conducted to investigate those systemic barriers and how it affects waste reduction within the organization that i
