When natural areas are converted for human use, resulting changes in the landscape often lead to habitat loss and fragmentation, which can disrupt key ecological interactions such as pollination by animals. In this study, we investigated the independent effects of habitat loss and fragmentation on the structure and composition of plant-vertebrate pollinator interaction networks, focusing on intera
Background Childhood vaccination rates fluctuate over time and do not always meet the levels recommended by the WHO. Objective This study aims to provide an overview of measures countries have introduced to increase vaccination rates. Methods We developed a structured data collection template that was completed by country experts from Europe, Israel, the USA, and Canada. Experts were identified us
Anthropogenic noise and artificial light at night (ALAN) are expanding globally, acting as pervasive sensory pollutants that can disrupt wildlife behaviour and reproduction. While most research has focused on diurnal species, the effects of these pollutants on the ecological response of nocturnal predators remain poorly understood. Using data from nine European countries, we investigated the effec
The aim of this study was to perform histopathological reassessment of primary resections of locally advanced colon cancer (CC) within a randomized controlled trial, with specific focus on surgical margins and synchronous locoregional peritoneal metastases (SL-PM), and to provide learning points for both surgeons and pathologists. All histopathological slides of patients with c/pT4N0-2M0 or perfor

This thesis investigates the climate impact of a newly constructed residential complex in Oceanhamnen, Helsingborg, through an extended life cycle assessment (LCA) covering both building and non-building elements such as road infrastructure, inner courtyards, external installations, that area often overlooked in conventional assessments. The aim is to develop a replicable method to quantify the gl
In modern recruitment, organizations tend to face a persistent paradox: they must align candidates with existing cultural values while simultaneously promoting workforce diversity. This thesis investigates how HR professionals navigate the inherent tension between organizational fit and diversity within recruitment processes across multinational public and private organizations in Europe and South
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
The increasing global demand for sustainable energy has sparked interest in combining renewable technologies to leverage their synergies. This thesis presents a pre-feasibility study of a combined offshore wind and wave energy farm located off the coast of Galicia, Spain. In collaboration with Wavepiston, a Danish developer of wave energy converters (WECs), the study evaluates the integration of t
With the expansion of social media, aesthetics have emerged as a tool to inspire as well as curate identity and lifestyle online. Previous research has found that the mobilisation of aesthetics has been essential for gaining followers and curating a softer outward image to new audiences. This study aims to better understand how the far-right uses nature aesthetics to gain followers and visualise t
Shrub range expansion, also known as shrubification, across arctic and subarctic ecosystems is expected to increase with climate change, with implications for vegetation structure, biodiversity, and soil carbon dynamics. Previous research has found a shrubification-induced decrease in organic matter stocks from tundra to forest in the organic horizon, prompting further investigation into whether t
Swedish municipalities are placed in a decision-making position as the nation looks to bolster the nation's energy strategy with increased nuclear power. New nuclear power is posed as an exciting potential solution to the energy crisis and the need for more decarbonized energy sources. New nuclear power also consists of uncertainty, emerging technologies, and planning difficulties. This thesis
Urban trees are uniquely valuable in towns and cities for the ecosystem services they provide their citizens and can as such be considered a potent source of public goods and positive externalities - even when these trees are found on private properties. The importance of urban trees will only grow as events of severe heat and extreme rainfall become more and more frequent and the urgency to reduc
Targeting neuroinflammation, a key factor in the progression of chronic neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and epilepsy, is essential for discovering effective treatments. Recent studies indicate that Pannexin-1 (Panx-1) channels serve as the primary pathways for ATP release from degenerating and innate immune cells in the brain, triggering neuroinflammation. By blocking it with a
Oligonucleotides are short fragments of RNA or DNA that can act as active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) in medicines used to target a wide range of diseases, with further applications continuously emerging. Solid Phase Oligonucleotide Synthesis (SPOS) remains the dominant platform for oligonucleotide production. However, SPOS is characterized by high reagent consumption and a poor sustainabilit
Alla stora livsförändringar följs av perioder av tvetydighet och anpassning, i synnerhet pensionen. Idag ser vi stora demografiska förändringar till följd av att människor lever längre vilket gör det möjligt att anta att övergången från arbetsliv till pension har förändrats och fortsatt kommer att förändras. Syftet med uppsatsen är att förstå hur svenska pensionärer upplever och anpassar sig till
