Metal oxide shell layers are promising candidates to improve the performance of metal nanoparticles (NPs) in various applications. However, despite a significant amount of experimental work on metal@metal oxide (M@MO) NPs, computational modeling is scarce, particularly on the sintering mechanism, which plays a crucial role in both the synthesis and performance of NPs. Here, we present atomic diffu

What images of multispecies life might emerge from the practices of sanctuary-caregiving in a time of anthropogenic extinction and environmental degradation? In this presentation, I will delve into the embodied, situated, and multispecies care practices unfolding within the everyday context of farmed animal sanctuaries. ...

Over the past decades, Farmed Animal Sanctuaries (FAS) have emerged globally to become a significant part of the broader animal movement. However, FASes are confronted with the difficult task of providing life-long care for animals bred for profit within a normative regime intended on industrial production. Based on multi-sited fieldwork performed in Denmark, this paper examines critical barriers

Aim: To compare long-term effects of a systemic school-based intervention, Marte Meo and Coordination Meetings (MAC), targeting 3- to 12-year-old children display- ing disruptive behaviour problems (DBP) in preschool or school, and service as usual (SAU). In addition, to examine whether social status (SS) affected the outcomes.

This thesis aims to expand on the fundamental knowledge of crystal growth, selectively focusing on the area of particle-seeded nanowire growth in the III-V materials system. The growth process is complex. It typically occurs via the vapor-liquid-solid method, wherein growth material is supplied in the vapor phase, but the solidification process occurs dynamically, layer by layer, via an intermedia

Insulin-dependent (type 1) diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is classified as an autoimmune disorder, since it is associated with specific autoimmunity towards the insulin-producing cells in the islets of Langerhans. The disease process that results in IDDM is not fully understood and whether it is initiated by endogenous or exogenous antigens, or a combination, remains to be clarified. The clinical onset

The cellular interior is a dense environment. Understanding how such an environment impacts the properties of proteins and other macromolecules, as well as how weak, non-specific interactions drive processes such as protein droplet formation through liquid-liquid phase separation, is a major challenge in biological physics. The complexity of this environment often makes experimental studies extrem
