The cytoskeleton allows for subcellular organization, which is the key behind many cellular functions. One such function is pola

Abstract There is adaptive radiation of endemic finches on the islands of Tristan da Cunha. On each of two of the islands a small-billed and a large-billed subspecies have evolved independently. In this study we analysed the transcriptome of the finch Nesospiza acunhae of Inaccessible Island with the use of RNA-seq reads. The rapid improvement in nextgeneration sequencing technologies as well as

Return models and covariance matrices of return series have been studied. In particular, GARCH and SV models are compared with respect to their forecasting accuracy when applied to intraday return series. SV models are found to be considerably more accurate and more consistent in accuracy in forecasting. Covariance matrices formed from Gaussian and GARCH return series, and in particular, return s

Studiens syfte är att fylla den kunskapslucka som identifierats kring användandet av hållbarhetsredovisning i ideella organisationer som är verksamma i Sverige. De ideella organisationer som undersöks är Rädda Barnen, Greenpeace, Röda Korset, Reach for Change och BRIS vars kärnverksamhet kretsar kring miljömässigt eller socialt arbete.

Denna studie syftar till att undersöka huruvida etniskt ursprung påverkar rekryterares bedömning av CV:n. Undersökningen gjordes i samarbete med ett bemanningsföretag där personalen dagligen arbetar med rekrytering. De tolv deltagarna fick i uppdrag att rekrytera en orderplockare. Deltagarna fick granska och skatta fem fiktiva CV:n. Varje CV fanns utformat i två versioner där enda skillnaden var eThis study aims to examine whether ethnicity affects the recruiters' evaluation of résumés. The study was conducted in collaboration with an employment agency where employees work daily with recruitment. Twelve participants were assigned to recruit a warehouse worker. Participants reviewed and estimated five fictitious résumés. Each résumé was designed in two versions, with the only difference

Denna studie handlar om utsatta barns möjligheter till rättssäkerhet i en globaliserad värld. Vi har undersökt centrala aktörers uppfattningar om barns utsatthet vid barnsexturism, i syfte att skapa en ökad förståelse för hur dessa barns rättssäkerhet tar uttryck. Vårt perspektiv, på de globala processerna och dess betydelse för utsatta barns möjligheter till rättssäkerhet, har således varit barne

Previous research has focused on the correlation between CSR and returns, whilst considerably less efforts have been undertaken to investigate whether CSR affects a company’s valuation. Therefore this paper focus on investigating the correlation between these two variables. This is done by comparing valuation multiples of constructed indices consisting of bad and socially responsible companies to

Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka små svenska aktiebolags användning av peri-odiseringsfonder mellan åren 2003 och 2013 för att utreda om avgiftsbeläggningen haft någon effekt. Metod: Uppsatsen är en explorativ studie med analytisk induktion som ansats. För att uppnå studiens syfte genomförs en kvantitativ analys av sekundärdata i form av årsredovis-ningar.

Denna rapport beskriver utvecklingen av väderskyddskoncept till fixed dome-övervakningskameror. Målet var att ta fram en lösning som fungerar bättre mot regn än de befintliga lösningarna på marknaden och som samtidigt är en produkt som passar in på en byggnad och ihop med kameran. Att designa ett väderskydd är ett komplext problem då det måste uppfylla många olika krav. Det måste bland annat klaThis report describes the design and development of weather shield concepts for wall-mounted fixed dome surveillance cameras. The aim was to create concepts that would have better functionality against rain than current solutions while at the same time being attractive, non-obtrusive products. During the first phase the challenges of a weather shield were explored in detail. Areas such as differe
