The sea is a means of transportation as well as a stage for violent battles. It separates nations and peoples - and it can bring them together. It is a site for trade as well as for plunder, it gives us vital natural resources while storms can make it deadly for some. This field studies humans' historical relationship to seas, oceans and waterways.
MISSION aims to revolutionize maritime transport efficiency and sustainability through real-time port call and voyage optimization.
Maritime and transport law consists of the rules governing shipping and other transport activities, i.e. road, rail and air transport. As this is an industry that often involves cross-border activities, the regulatory framework is largely based on international conventions.
The research in marketing focuses on how companies, consumers and other stakeholders act and interact in different markets and what effects it has on the corporate, consumer and societal level.
This group’s research interests concern the implications of marketisation and competitive tendering for social work.
Like many other countries, Sweden has implemented market-oriented schooling reforms through school choice, competition from private providers, and the increased use of standardized testing and early grading. The goal of the project is to determine how such reforms affect teachers' mental health, sick absence and mobility.
In our group, we use mainly cryo-EM to discover molecular regulatory mechanisms. We combine the technique also with cryogenic electron tomography (cryo-ET) and work at developing combinatory methods with fluorescence microscopy. We follow two main lines of research.
Our main area of interest and expertise is how protein structure relates to function, in particular in proteins that utilize redox active metal cofactors or radicals for catalysis.
The majority in violent extremist groups are men, yet the role of masculinity in extremist ideology, organization, recruitment, and radicalization has largely been neglected. This workshop will draw together Nordic scholars to explore masculinity in right-wing, left-wing, and Islamic extremists, as well as in ‘manosphere’ and far-right movements.
This project explores how questions about men and masculinity are articulated in contemporary Nordic gender equality policy, in the form of reports published by the Nordic council of ministers, 2019-2024.
Researchers within this subfield have an interest in men and masculinities, which are studied from several feminist, intersectional, and critical perspectives.
The standard paradigm for statistical modelling assumes that observations on variables are independent. In addition to multivariate statistical techniques that afford for dependencies between variables, and time series analysis with dependence over time, many empirical settings give rise to complex data structures that place additional requirements on modelling and inference.
The concept of matching refers to the process when a foster home is selected to fit an individual child in placement. Matching is important for the quality of care, as the foster carers need necessary resources to meet the child’s needs.
The MEOW: Materialities, Environments, and Objects of War Research Group is an interdisciplinary network anchored at the Department of Archaeology and Classical Studies, Stockholm University, and the Department of War Studies, Swedish Defence University.
Materiality studies within Art History investigates effects and meanings of the physically material aspects of works of art, buildings and other objects of study in art science.
Two areas of research that recently have received attention in ethnology are those that have to do with studies of the material (materiality studies) and visual culture (visual culture or visual studies).
"Materials for a sustainable society" The scientists at Stockholm University address issues related to energy storage and conversion, a clean environment, and improved human health, addressing important social development goals.
"Materials for a sustainable society" Energy-related materials research at Stockholm University spans a broad spectrum from energy savings, to conversion, to storage.
"Materials for a sustainable society" Research at Stockholm University on materials for environment involves sustainable materials for water purification, air purification, CO2 capture and microplastics removal.
Research on materials for health at Stockholm University focuses on the design, synthesis and evaluation of advanced materials that can contribute to improved diagnostics, prevention and treatment of disease. The field brings together chemistry, materials science, nanotechnology, biology and medicine to develop materials that interact with biological systems in controlled and useful ways.
