Employee engagement and employer branding are highly relevant in today's labor market, where employers no longer hold all the cards, but the employees assert their demands as well. Furthermore, there is a scarcity in research exploring the interaction between employee engagement and employer branding. This study investigates through a case study how employee engagement and employer branding in

This thesis deploys ethnographic tools in a qualitative case study to explore the internet community, Female Dating Strategy (FDS). As narratives surrounding the “crisis of masculinity” are popularised within politics and mainstream media, the objective of research becomes to scrutinise these conceptualisations. This thesis does so by focusing on the field of intimacy and sexuality, by raising the

Sustainability, population dynamics and health issues are some of the greater challenges the global society faces today. Meat consumption has emerged as one of the reasons behind the cause and effect of these challenges. There is a growing consensus amongst researchers, industry stakeholders and decision-makers that there is a need to transition into more sustainable alternatives to meat. As a res

Tropical forests are of great importance to all living-beings due to their high biodiversity and the valu-able resources, such as food and fuel, they provide. In addition, tropical trees sequester a high amount of carbon and consequently over half of the global forest carbon stock can be found in the tropics. Climate change, however, might weaken this carbon sink and possibly result in tropical fo

DPM is a manufacturing company within the metal cutting industry. A number of years ago there emerged a desire to make statistical calculations for its production. Until today, the company has not done any post-calculations, which means that they have based their cost calculations and sales prices on precalculated costs. The absence of post-calculations leads to lack of cost-consciousness that is

Those familiar with the various comically inclined works of P.G. Wodehouse are, or should be, well aware of his idiosyncrasies, particularly in terms of his usage of specific expressions and his inventiveness in using imagery to bring across his point. Therefore, those aware of the existence of said inclined-to-make-you-smile works of fiction should be pleasantly surprised to find that many of his

The aim achieved through this thesis was to ascertain how much the pollutions of black carbon (BC) from each European country systematically deviate from their expected values obtained by inverting a transport model. The model used is based on meteorological observations as well as black carbon values obtained in the past at different locations. It was achieved by fitting a linear regression model

Orala streptokocker – munhålans gynnare och eventuella fiende Streptokocker är associerade med flera infektionssjukdomar i olika delar av kroppen. En grupp streptokocker (orala streptokocker) återfinns främst i människans munhåla i både friska och sjuka individer. Tidigare studier har visat att orala streptokocker etableras i munhålan redan när vi är barn och finns kvar under hela livet. I den frOral streptococci colonize the oral cavity already during early childhood and establish the foundation for colonization by a multispecies oral microbiota. In the oral cavity, Streptococcus spp. contribute to both health and disease, and can also spread to the blood stream causing bacteremia and systemic diseases such as infectious endocarditis (IE) in certain risk groups. Molecular changes in oral

Motstånd i tumören – att hitta biomarkörer för prostatacancerns mest svårbehandlade celler Prostatacancer är en av de vanligaste cancerdiagnoserna hos män. Trots att prognos och behandlingsmetoder har förbättrats betydligt de senaste decennierna, är spridd prostatacancer (metastaserad) i nuläget ett obotligt sjukdomstillstånd. Det behövs därför bättre behandlingsmetoder samt prediktiva och diagnoProstate cancer is one of the most prevalent cancer diagnoses for men and is believed to increase in the future due to an aging global population. The 5-year survival rate decreases drastically for metastatic disease, which is currently incurable. Androgens drive prostate cancer via the AR-signaling pathway. For metastatic disease, antiandrogen therapy, external beam therapy, chemotherapy, or ther

Molecular subtyping has been a major focus of bladder cancer research over the past decade. Despite many promising associations with clinical outcomes and treatment response, its clinical impact has yet to be defined. As part of the 2022 International Society of Urological Pathology Conference on Bladder Cancer, we reviewed the current state of the science for bladder cancer molecular subtyping. O

The complex genetic architecture of type-2-diabetes (T2D) includes gene-by-environment (G×E) and gene-by-gene (G×G) interactions. To identify G×E and G×G, we screened markers for patterns indicative of interactions (relationship loci [rQTL] and variance heterogeneity loci [vQTL]). rQTL exist when the correlation between multiple traits varies by genotype and vQTL occur when the variance of a trait

The aim of these experiments was to obtain a detailed knowledge of how the orbicularis oculi muscle is activated during the execution of a conditioned eyeblink response (CR). This is the first critical step to understand the underlying neural mechanisms involved in the control of the CR. Decerebrate ferrets were trained in a classical conditioning paradigm. The conditioned stimulus (CS) was a trai

During the last decade it has been increasingly acknowledged that carbon (C) contained in root exudates can accelerate decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM), a phenomenon known as rhizosphere priming effect (RPE). However, the controlling factors and the role of different soil microorganisms in RPE are not yet well understood. There are some indications that the response of the soil microbial

Background: Self-reported sex problems among women diagnosed with reproductive and nonreproductive cancers before the age of 40 are not fully understood. This study aimed to determine sexual dysfunction in young women following a cancer diagnosis in relation to women of the general population. Furthermore, to identify factors associated with sexual dysfunction in women diagnosed with cancer. Mater

Background: Many ice hockey goaltending techniques force hip joints and groin muscles into extreme ranges of motion, which may increase the risk of hip and groin problems. Purpose: To explore how elite goaltenders and goaltending coaches perceive the demands of common goaltending techniques on the hip and groin region. We further explored differences in perception between goaltenders and their coa

Aims: The aim of this cross-sectional study was to examine the prevalence of the multidimensional phenomenon of fatigue in adults with congenital heart disease. Background: Adults with congenital heart disease are a growing population, and patient-reported outcomes can provide valuable information about the patient's experience of living with CHD. Fatigue is a multidimensional phenomenon that can

BACKGROUND: Small molecule inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) have been developed as molecular therapy for cancer, but their efficacy in the clinic is modest, hampered by resistance mechanisms.METHODS: We studied the effect of PI3K therapy in patient-derived tumor organotypic cultures (from five patient samples), three glioblastoma (GBM) tumor cell lines, and an intracranial model

Semiconductor nanowire (NW) technology has emerged as a key facilitator of novel optoelectronics e.g. solar cells, photodetectors and LEDs. The functional wavelength range of current NW-based photodetectors is typically limited to the visible/near-infrared region. In this work, we present the first ever reported electrical and optical characteristics of longwavelength IR photodetectors based on la
