Gender, Materiality, and Politics : Essays on the making of power

Kan en silkeshandske vara en symbol för makt? I denna tänkvärda volym samlas en grupp namnkunniga historiker för att ge perspektiv på överlappande frågor kring genus, materialitet och politik. Genom historiska fallstudier som sträcker sig från 1500-talet och fram i modern tid utforskar författarna brännpunkter i företeelser som diplomati, kvinnors inflytande och tillskrivandet av betydelse hos förCan a silk glove be an expression of power? In this carefully curated volume, internation­ally renowned historians have come together to explore the interconnected perspectives of gender, materiality, and politics. As the authors elaborate on these topics, the volume offers contributions covering a period from the sixteenth century to the present day, investigating political culture and diplomacy,

Underestimated Interannual Variability of Terrestrial Vegetation Production by Terrestrial Ecosystem Models

Vegetation gross primary production (GPP) is the largest terrestrial carbon flux and plays an important role in regulating the carbon sink. Current terrestrial ecosystem models (TEMs) are indispensable tools for evaluating and predicting GPP. However, to which degree the TEMs can capture the interannual variability (IAV) of GPP remains unclear. With large data sets of remote sensing, in situ obser

The secondary bile acid isoursodeoxycholate correlates with post-prandial lipemia, inflammation, and appetite and changes post-bariatric surgery

Primary and secondary bile acids (BAs) influence metabolism and inflammation, and the gut microbiome modulates levels of BAs. We systematically explore the host genetic, gut microbial, and habitual dietary contribution to a panel of 19 serum and 15 stool BAs in two population-based cohorts (TwinsUK, n = 2,382; ZOE PREDICT-1, n = 327) and assess changes post-bariatric surgery and after nutritional

Large-scale metal strip for power storage and energy conversion applications by machining-based deformation processing

Machining-based deformation processing is used to produce metal foil and flat wire (strip) with suitable properties and quality for electrical power and renewable energy applications. In contrast to conventional multistage rolling, the strip is produced in a single-step and with much less process energy. Examples are presented from metal systems of varied workability, and strip product scale in te

‘Newton’ fast shutter system for neutron scattering instruments at the ESS and ISIS neutron sources

Interfacial processes are involved in many areas of chemistry, physics and biochemistry, but following the structural changes of surfaces and thin films at relevant timescales remains challenging. Time-of flight neutron reflectometry can determine changes in surface composition and film thickness, but the speed of these measurements is typically limited by the neutron flux over the range of wavele

Energetics and dynamics of the proton shuttle of carbonic anhydrase II

Human carbonic anhydrase II catalyzes the reversible reaction of carbon dioxide and water to form bicarbonate and a proton. His64-mediated proton shuttling between the active site and the bulk solvent is rate limiting. Here we investigate the protonation behavior of His64 as well as its structural and dynamic features in a pH dependent way. We derive two pK a values for His64, 6.25 and 7.60, that

Triplet Formation in a 9,10-Bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene Dimer and Trimer Occurs by Charge Recombination Rather than Singlet Fission

We present an experimental study investigating the solvent-dependent dynamics of a 9,10-bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene monomer, dimer, and trimer. Using transient absorption spectroscopy, we have discovered that triplet excited state formation in the dimer and trimer molecules in polar solvents is a consequence of charge recombination subsequent to symmetry-breaking charge separation rather than sin

Kommunikatörers professionalisering – en balansakt mellan olika roller

Kommunikatörsyrket inom offentlig sektor har på senare år varit på stark framväxt, men också i kraftig omvandling. Digitalisering, ökade förväntningar på organisationers kommunikation, en tilltagande medvetenhet i ledningen om kommunikationens strategiska betydelse, och alltmer komplexa verksamheter är några bakomliggande faktorer till den här utvecklingen. Det är också alltmer uppenbart att det s

Why We Shouldn’t Pause Research on AI, but Instead Prioritize Multidisciplinary Research and AI Governance

The recent open letter from the Future of Life Institute (FLI) calling for a pause on the development of AI systems has generated a significant amount of discussion. We argue that more significant action to address the potential dangers of large, generative models, requires increased efforts on AI governance, and research funding structures to build a sustainable basis for transparent research on

Midlife Intakes of the Isoflavone Genistein and Soy and the Risk of Late-life Cognitive Impairment : The JPHC Saku Mental Health Study

Background: The number of people with cognitive impairment, including dementia, in the world is steadily increasing. Although the consumption of isoflavones and soy is associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, it might also be associated with cognitive impairment. The low number of studies investigating the association between soy/isoflavone intake and cognitive function warrant ad

Food laborers as stewards of island biocultural diversity : Reclaiming local knowledge, food sovereignty, and decolonization

Creating nutritious and ecologically regenerative food cultures depends on the local knowledge of food system laborers. Food producers in small island developing states center socioecological interdependence in their livelihoods and, as such, conserve biocultural diversity. Amid burgeoning health, economic, and climate crises brought on by colonialism, reclaiming food sovereignty requires a critic

Motion management optimization in radiotherapy : From the most common to the most uncommon patient

In radiotherapy (RT), the treatment is thoroughly planned and optimized to fulfil the goal of delivering a high dose to the target, while sparing as much normal tissue as possible. This implies that the patient position and anatomy should be the same as they were during the planning image acquisition. To achieve this, it is important to have motion management methods for predicting, monitoring, an
