In order for understanding of urban segregation to reach beyond residential segregation, the extent to which public space facilitates co-presence between social groups is a key issue. LÄS MER
3. Exploring Typologies, Densities & Spatial Qualities : The Case of Low-Income Housing in South Africa

4. Rummet och rätten Tingshus som föreställning, byggnad och rum i användning 1734-1970
Sammanfattning : SPACE AND COURT Swedish rural district court-houses 1734-1970; conceived, materialized and used Abstract Although the court of justice is a fundamental institution of our society, the socio-spatial conditions and past of the Swedish district court have rarely been objects of academic research. The aim of this thesis is to examine the design of rural district court-houses from the period of 1734-1970, starting out from the often-assumed causal relation between function and form. LÄS MER
5. Computational methods for analysis of spatial transcriptomics data : An exploration of the spatial gene expression landscape
Sammanfattning : Transcriptomics techniques, whether in the form of bulk, single cell/nuclei, or spatial methods have fueled a substantial expansion of our knowledge about the biological systems within and around us. In addition, the rate of innovation has accelerated over the last decade, resulting in a multitude of technological advances and new methods for generation of transcriptomics data. LÄS MER
