How dawn turned into dusk: Scoping and closing possible nuclear futures after the Cold War
How was the scope of nuclear weapons policy change immediately after the Cold War determined? Nuclear learning and worst-case thinking are common but not satisfactory answers. On the basis of primary sources in multiple languages, we posit that a particular temporalization of nuclear events in the beginning of the 1990s took place: nonproliferation timescaping. The Iraqi case of opaque proliferati

Strategies to increase fathers’ engagement in child protection investigations due to domestic partner abuse in Sweden
Social workers often fail to engage fathers in child protection investigations (CPIs), especially when they involve domestic abuse (DA) by fathers. The aim of this study is to examine the strategies used by social workers to achieve cooperation with fathers in CPIs that involve the father being suspected of DA against the child's mother. With the use of qualitative methods, we conducted 31 semi-st

On the interactions between RNA and titrateable lipid layers : implications for RNA delivery with lipid nanoparticles
Characterising the interaction between cationic ionisable lipids (CIL) and nucleic acids (NAs) is key to understanding the process of RNA lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formation and release of NAs from LNPs. Here, we have used different surface techniques to reveal the effect of pH and NA type on the interaction with a model system of DOPC and the CIL DLin-MC3-DMA (MC3). At only 5% MC3, differences in

Minimax Linear Optimal Control of Positive Systems
We present a novel class of minimax optimal control problems with positive dynamics, linear objective function and homogeneous constraints. The proposed problem class can be analyzed with dynamic programming and an explicit solution to the Bellman equation can be obtained, revealing that the optimal control policy (among all possible policies) is linear. This policy can in turn be computed through
Body size mediates latitudinal population differences in the response to chytrid fungus infection in two amphibians
Factors behind intraspecific variation in sensitivity to pathogens remain poorly understood. We investigated how geographical origin in two North European amphibians affects tolerance to infection by the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), a generalist pathogen which has caused amphibian population declines worldwide. We exposed newly metamorphosed individuals of moor frog Rana arv

Does a prior diagnosis of infectious disease confer an increased risk of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults?
Aims: Infections are proposed risk factors for type 1 diabetes in children. We examined whether a diagnosis of infectious disease also confers an increased risk of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA). Materials and methods: We used data from a population-based Swedish case-control study with incident cases of LADA (n = 597) and matched controls (n = 2386). The history of infectious disease
Semiclassical analysis of a nonlocal boundary value problem related to magnitude
We study a Dirichlet boundary problem related to the fractional Laplacian in a manifold. Its variational formulation arises in the study of magnitude, an invariant of compact metric spaces given by the reciprocal of the ground state energy. Using recent techniques developed for pseudodifferential boundary problems we discuss the structure of the solution operator and resulting properties of the ma

Harnessing cognitive trajectory clusterings to examine subclinical decline risk factors
Cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease and other dementias typically begins long before clinical impairment. Identifying people experiencing subclinical decline may facilitate earlier intervention. This study developed cognitive trajectory clusters using longitudinally based random slope and change point parameter estimates from a Preclinical Alzheimer's disease Cognitive Composite and examined
The Sovereign Human Being : Carl Schmitt, Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Responsible Decision-Making
Sovereign is who decides; and who decides is responsible. The book develops these two arguments by comparing Carl Schmitt's and Dietrich Bonhoeffer's theories of sovereignty.Carl Schmitt was an influential jurist of Nazi Germany. Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a Lutheran priest hanged for his involvement in a plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler. In many ways, the two men could not be more different. But the

Discussion Seminars – an Award-winning Pedagogical Method
There are many pedagogical methods to engage students in active learning. This paper presents Discussion Seminars, which is one such method that is much appreciated by students. This paper explains how to structure seminars and discusses their benefits and what requirements they put on the teacher. The paper aims to inspire other teachers to try something similar.

Advanced Diffusion-Weighted MRI for Cancer Microstructure Assessment in Body Imaging, and Its Relationship With Histology
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) aims to disentangle multiple biological signal sources in each imaging voxel, enabling the computation of innovative maps of tissue microstructure. DW-MRI model development has been dominated by brain applications. More recently, advanced methods with high fidelity to histology are gaining momentum in other contexts, for example, in oncologica
