6. Choreographing innovative practice in everyday work
Sammanfattning : The thesis argues for a humanistic and democratic approach to innovation management that puts employees and their engagement in the center of organizational efforts for innovation. It proposes that a culture for innovation can be built by enabling all employees to develop their innovative practice as part of their everyday work and not as an extra activity on top of their existing responsibilities.

7. Palaeoenvironmental reconstructions from modern and ancient plant DNA
Sammanfattning : Palaeoecological studies on lake sediments and peat archives have provided fundamental knowledge about past environments, nevertheless, a lot remains to be learned. In this thesis, I focussed on plant ancient DNA extracted from sedimentary archives (sedaDNA), in combination with DNA from living trees with the aims of: (1) investigating different extraction methods and levels of inhibition in sediments, (2) investigating postglacial recolonisation history of Norway spruce in Fennoscandia, (3) comparing different sequencing and bioinformatic approaches to investigate past flora changes using sedaDNA and investigating past flora change in contrasting environments (southern Italy versus southern Sweden), and (4) communicating my work more broadly using art.

8. Experimental pharmacodynamic and kinetic studies related to new combination therapies against P. falciparum malaria
Sammanfattning : Artemisinin (ART) class of compounds are of special interest due to their rapid onset of action and high activity against multidrug resistant malaria. The major drawback in monotherapy with ART and its derivatives is the high rate of recrudescent infection. LÄS MER

In this thesis, a descriptive and explorative design has been used, comprising both qualitative (Papers I-III) and quantitative (Papers I and IV) methods. LÄS MER
10. Form & Formlessness : Questioning aesthetic abstractions through art projects, cross-disciplinary studies and product design education
Sammanfattning : This research is based on empirical, embodied studies aimed to generate and regenerate aesthetic reasoning through three approaches:an educational approach concerned with developing an aesthetic discipline, supporting a formgiving process aimed to create tangible artifacts.an art-based approach supporting an open exploration of distortion and formlessnessa multi-disciplinary exploratory approach concerned with aesthetic experiences shared in laborations demonstrating complexity and transformation.
