    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ergonomics; Human Factors; Risk Assessment; Hazard Assessment; Screening; Observation; the RAMP tool; Design; Lifting; Pushing; Pulling; Postures; Usability; Musculoskeletal Disorders; Ergonomists; Evaluation; Reliability.; Ergonomi; Human Factors; Manuell Hantering; Riskbedömningar; Screening; Observation; RAMP verktyget; Design; Lyft; Skjuta; Dra; Arbetsställningar; Användbarhet; Belastningsbesvär; Ergonomer; Utvärdering; Reliabilitet.; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

    Abstract : Despite efforts of reducing harmful physical ergonomics exposures related to manual handling, the occurrence of heavy or repetitive manual handling, and non-neutral postures is high in many occupational sectors. To reduce these exposures, interventions and job design strategies can utilize risk assessment. READ MORE

  4. 2. Pulling Force Studies of Secretory Protein Translocation into the Endoplasmic Reticulum

    Author : Theresa Kriegler; Tara Hessa; Patricia Clark; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Co-translational translocation; Xbp1 arrest peptide; Translocon-associated protein TRAP complex; Prion protein; Insulin; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : More than 30% of human genes encode secretory or membrane proteins. Most secretory proteins are targeted to the Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane via cleavable N-terminal signal sequences either in a co- or post-translational manner. They enter or cross the membrane using a protein translocating channel (translocon). READ MORE

    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; physical cognition; causal cognition; tool use; evolution of cognition; anthropomorphism; corvids;

    Abstract : Physical cognition involves a host of cognitive abilities that enable understanding and manipulation of the physical world. Corvids, the bird family that includes crows, ravens and jays, are renowned for their cognitive abilities, but still little is known about their folk physics. READ MORE

  6. 4. Dark matter in and around stars

    Author : Sofia Sivertsson; Tommy Ohlsson; Steen Hansen; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dark matter; early universe; Astroparticle physics; Astropartikelfysik;

    Abstract : There is by now compelling evidence that most of the matter in the universe is in the form of dark matter, a form of matter quite different from the matter we experience in every day life. The gravitational effects of this dark matter have been observed in many different ways but its true nature is still unknown. READ MORE

  7. 5. Development of novel and accessible treatments for trichotillomania and skin-picking disorder

    Author : Mia Asplund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Trichotillomania (TTM) and Skin-picking disorder (SPD) are psychiatric conditions characterized by recurrent and excessive hair-pulling and skin-picking, respectively. These behaviors result in significant hair loss or skin lesions and often consume substantial amounts of time, leading to significant distress and functional impairment. READ MORE
