  2. 1. Do I look white? : Creating community in online safe spaces for racialized youth

    Author : Fanny Pérez Aronsson; Rickard Jonsson; Tommaso M. Milani; Ann Phoenix; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; online ethnography; safe spaces; racialized youth; coloniality; narrative; storytelling; small stories; barn- och ungdomsvetenskap; Child and Youth Studies;

    Abstract : This dissertation examines identity performances amongst racialized youth in online ‘safe spaces’. Using a netnography-inspired approach to study communities online, the study employs decolonial and narrative theories to analyse identity performances through everyday interaction. READ MORE

  5. 3. Dissolving Dualism : A Tripartite Model of Cognition for Religious Truth

    Author : Elena Kalmykova; Eberhard Herrmann; Jonsson Ulf; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; truth; religious truth; embodied cognition; dualism; Merleau-Ponty; phenomenology; cognitive science; neurophilosophy; model of cognition; theories of truth; language; meaningfulness; meaning; subjective; objective; intersubjective; scientific realism; social constructivism; Wittgenstein; white spaces; agency; gaps in cognition; enacted cognition; extended cognition; embedded cognition; epistemology; philosophy and empirical investigation; Religion Theology; Religionsvetenskap Teologi;

    Abstract : This investigation can be described as a long journey to a final destination: a truth in religion. We start by considering dualism of the subjective and the objective, the classical model of cognition that underlies notions of truth. Dualistic notions of cognition lead to serious problems, especially for religious truth. READ MORE

  6. 4. Numerical Approximation of Solutions to Stochastic Partial Differential Equations and Their Moments

    Abstract : The first part of this thesis focusses on the numerical approximation of the first two moments of solutions to parabolic stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) with additive or multiplicative noise. More precisely, in Paper I an earlier result (A. Lang, S. Larsson, and Ch. READ MORE

  7. 5. Cerebral arterial pulsatility imaging using 4D flow MRI : methodological development and applications in brain aging

    Author : Tomas Vikner; Anders Wåhlin; Anders Eklund; Jan Malm; Lars Nyberg; Susanne Schnell; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Magnetic resonance imaging; 4D flow MRI; medical image analysis; cerebral hemodynamics; arterial pulsatility; DCE MRI; blood-brain barrier; white matter lesions; perivascular spaces; cerebral small vessel disease; hippocampus; cognition; aging; biomedicinsk strålningsvetenskap; Biomedical Radiation Science;

    Abstract : 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly recognizedas a versatile tool to assess arterial and venous hemodynamics. Cerebral arterial pulsatility is typically assessed by analyzing flow waveforms over the cardiac cycle, where flow amplitude is a function of cardiac output, central arterial stiffness, and cerebrovascular resistance and compliance.
