Abstract:
Background Alveolar (AE) and cystic echinococcosis (CE) in humans are caused by the metacestode of the tapeworms Echinococcus multilocularis and Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (s.l.). Immunohistochemistry with the monoclonal antibodies (mAb) Em2G11, specific for AE, and the mAb EmG3, specific for AE and CE, is an important pillar of the histological diagnosis of these two infections. Our aim was to further evaluate mAb EmG3 in a diagnostic setting and to analyze in detail the localization, distribution, and impact of small particles of Echinococcus multilocularis (spems) and small particles of Echinococcus granulosus s.l. (spegs) on lymph nodes. Methodology/principal findings We evaluated the mAb EmG3 in a cohort of formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) specimens of AE (n = 360) and CE (n = 178). These samples originated from 156 AE-patients and 77 CE-patients. mAb EmG3 showed a specific staining of the metacestode stadium of E. multilocularis and E. granulosus s.l. and had a higher sensitivity for spems than mAb Em2G11. Furthermore, we detected spegs in the surrounding host tissue and in almost all tested lymph nodes (39/41) of infected patients. 38/47 lymph nodes of AE showed a positive reaction for spems with mAb EmG3, whereas 29/47 tested positive when stained with mAb Em2G11. Spegs were detected in the germinal centers, co-located with CD23-positive follicular dendritic cells, and were present in the sinuses. Likewise, lymph nodes with spems and spegs in AE and CE were significantly enlarged in size in comparison to the control group. Conclusions/significance mAb EmG3 is specific for AE and CE and is a valuable tool in the histological diagnosis of echinococcosis. Based on the observed staining patterns, we hypothesize that the interaction between parasite and host is not restricted to the main lesion since spegs are detected in lymph nodes. Moreover, in AE the number of spems-affected lymph nodes is higher than previously assumed. The enlargement of lymph nodes with spems and spegs points to an immunological interaction with the small immunogenic particles (spems and spegs) of Echinococcus spp.

Abstract:
Background Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is caused by metacestode larva of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. AE diagnostics currently rely on imaging techniques supported by serology, but unequivocal detection of AE is difficult. Although polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based methods to detect tapeworm DNA in biopsies have been suggested for several species, no validated protocol adhering to accepted guidelines has so far been presented for AE diagnostics. We herein established a PCR protocol for metacestode biopsies and technically evaluated the method using isolated parasite DNA and cells, biopsies of clinically relevant material, and formalin fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) human tissue blocks. We compared the results with an immunochemical (IHC) approach using the monoclonal antibody Em2G11 specific for the antigen Em2 of E. mulitlocularis. Methodology/Principal findings Based on tapeworm 12S rDNA sequences we established and validated a PCR protocol for robust detection of as little as 50 parasite cells per specimen and report 127 cases of positive identification of Echinococcus species in samples from humans and animals. For further validation, we analyzed 45 liver, heart, brain, and soft tissue samples as well as cytological probes of aspirates of FFPE-material from 18 patients with clinically confirmed AE. Of each patient we analyzed (i) fully viable lesions with laminated layer; (ii) tissue with mAbEm2G11-positive small particles of E. multilocularis (spems); (iii) mAbEm2G11-negative tissue adjacent to the main lesion; and (iv) lymph node tissue with mAbEm2G11-positive spems. To identify the areas for the PCR-based approach, we performed IHC-staining with the monoclonal antibody Em2G11. Micro-dissected tissue of these areas was then used for PCR-analysis. 9 of 15 analyzed samples with viable E. multilocularis lesions with laminated layer were positive by PCR. Of this group, all samples preserved for less than 6 years (6/6) were tested positive. 11 of 15 samples of spems and 7 of 9 samples of the control group mAbEm2G11-negative tissue were negative by PCR. We further show that all probes from lymph nodes with spems are PCR negative. Conclusions/Significance We present a sensitive PCR method for the detection of E. multilocularis in human tissue, particularly in fresh biopsy material and tissue blocks stored for less than 5 years. While the diagnostic sensitivity of material containing only spems was higher using IHC, PCR detection was possible in IHC negative liver tissue and in patients with negative serology. Our results support the view that spems do not contain parasitic DNA or viable cells of the parasite. spems thus most probably do not directly contribute to metastasis formation during AE.

Abstract:
Recently we showed that sensitivity for chromatic- and high-spatial frequency luminance stimuli is enhanced during smooth-pursuit eye movements (SPEMs). Here we investigated whether this enhancement is a general property of slow eye movements. Besides SPEM there are two other classes of eye movements that operate in a similar range of eye velocities: the optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) is a reflexive pattern of alternating fast and slow eye movements elicited by wide-field visual motion and the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) stabilizes the gaze during head movements. In a natural environment all three classes of eye movements act synergistically to allow clear central vision during self- and object motion. To test whether the same improvement of chromatic sensitivity occurs during all of these eye movements, we measured human detection performance of chromatic and luminance line stimuli during OKN and contrast sensitivity during VOR and SPEM at comparable velocities. For comparison, performance in the same tasks was tested during fixation. During the slow phase of OKN we found a similar enhancement of chromatic detection rate like that during SPEM, whereas no enhancement was observable during VOR. This result indicates similarities between slow-phase OKN and SPEM, which are distinct from VOR.

Abstract:
Unlike saccades, smooth pursuit eye movements (SPEMs) are not under voluntary control and their initiation generally requires a moving visual target. However, there are various reports of limited smooth pursuit of the motion of a subject’s own finger in total darkness (pursuit based on proprioceptive feedback) and to the combination of proprioception and tactile motion as an unseen finger was moved voluntarily over a smooth surface. In contrast, SPEMs to auditory motion are not distinguishable from pursuit of imagined motion. These reports of smooth pursuit of nonvisual motion cues used a variety of paradigms and different stimuli. In addition, the results have often relied primarily on qualitative descriptions of the smooth pursuit. Here, we directly compare measurements of smooth pursuit gain (eye velocity/stimulus velocity) to visual, auditory, proprioceptive, tactile, and combined tactile + proprioceptive motion stimuli. The results demonstrate high gains for visual pursuit, low gains for auditory pursuit, and intermediate, statistically indistinguishable gains for tactile, proprioceptive, and proprioceptive + tactile pursuit.

Abstract:
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is caused by the intermediate stage of Echinococcus multilocularis. We aimed to correlate computed tomography (CT) data with histology to identify distinct characteristics for different lesion types. We classified 45 samples into five types with the Echinococcus multilocularis Ulm Classification for Computed Tomography (EMUC-CT). The various CT lesions exhibited significantly different histological parameters, which led us to propose a progression model. The initial lesion fit the CT type IV classification, which comprises a single necrotic area with the central located laminated layer, a larger distance between laminated layer and border zone, a small fibrotic peripheral zone, and few small particles of Echinococcus multilocularis (spems). Lesions could progress through CT types I, II, and III, characterized by shorter distances between laminated layer and border zone, more spems inside and surrounding the lesion, and a pronounced fibrotic rim (mostly in type III). Alternatively, lesions could converge to a highly calcified, regressive state (type V). Our results suggest that the CT types mark sequential stages of the infection, which progress over time. These distinct histological patterns advance the understanding of interactions between AE and human host; moreover, they might become prognostically and therapeutically relevant.

Abstract:
Electrochemistry, one of the most important research and production technology, has been widely applicated in various fields. However, the requirement of external power source is a major challenge to its development. To solve this issue, developing self-powered electrochemical system (SPES) that can work by collecting energy from the environment is highly desired. The invention of triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), which can transform mechanical energy into electricity, is a promising approach to build SPES by integrating with electrochemistry. In this view, the latest representative achievements of SPES based on TENG are comprehensively reviewed. By harvesting various mechanical energy, five SPESs are built, including electrochemical pollutants treatment, electrochemical synthesis, electrochemical sensor, electrochromic reaction, and anticorrosion system, according to the application domain. Additionally, the perspective for promoting the development of SPES is discussed.

Abstract:
Smooth pursuit eye movements (SPEMs) are eye rotations that are used to maintain fixation on a moving target. Such rotations complicate the interpretation of the retinal image, because they nullify the retinal motion of the target, while generating retinal motion of stationary objects in the background. This poses a problem for the oculomotor system, which must track the stabilized target image while suppressing the optokinetic reflex, which would move the eye in the direction of the retinal background motion (opposite to the direction in which the target is moving). Similarly, the perceptual system must estimate the actual direction and speed of moving objects in spite of the confounding effects of the eye rotation. This paper proposes a neural model to account for the ability of primates to accomplish these tasks. The model simulates the neurophysiological properties of cell types found in the superior temporal sulcus of the macaque monkey, specifically the medial superior temporal (MST) region. These cells process signals related to target motion, background motion, and receive an efference copy of eye velocity during pursuit movements. The model focuses on the interactions between cells in the ventral and dorsal subdivisions of MST, which are hypothesized to process target velocity and background motion, respectively. The model explains how these signals can be combined to explain behavioral data about pursuit maintenance and perceptual data from human studies, including the Aubert-Fleischl phenomenon and the Filehne Illusion, thereby clarifying the functional significance of neurophysiological data about these MST cell properties. It is suggested that the connectivity used in the model may represent a general strategy used by the brain in analyzing the visual world.

Abstract:
Acontius rhetorically addresses the young man to whom Cydippe's parents have betrothed her, whom he imagines as showing excessive familiarity while visiting the girl's sickbed. In line 146, ‘spes’ may be considered the vulgate reading; the noun can be used concretely, of the object of one's hopes (OLD 4), a person in whom hopes are centred (OLD 5), or sometimes as an endearment (OLD 5c). For application to a girl with suitors, cf. Ovid, Met. 4.795 ‘multorumque fuit spes invidiosa procorum’. Or one could take ‘spes’ in Her. 20.146 generally, = id quod spero. But, in any case, ‘spes’ is somewhat disappointing. After the strong imagery of 145 (cutting crops), we expect something no less definite in the pentameter, and, in particular, a word which will cohere with, and reinforce, the notion of providing access (‘quis tibi fecit iter?’). In this respect ‘spes’ fails to contribute anything. Nor does the manuscript evidence point unambiguously to ‘spes’. Some manuscripts have the unmetrical ‘spem’, while Heinsius found in a Medicean manuscript the reading ‘sepem’, which was taken up by Burman, and by a number of other editors. To this, however, A. Palmer made an objection which seems not merely pedantic: ‘I should rather have expected per sepem; for a man has a right to go up to, as far as, another man's boundary.’

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka Svenska Spels marknadskommunikation, såsom det kommer till uttryck i företagets sociala medier. Mer precist handlar det om att belysa Svenska Spels marknadskommunikation på Facebook och Twitter med avseende på faktorer som relaterar till frågor som har att göra med hållbarhet och samhällsnytta. Detta genomfördes genom en innehållsanalys utifrån teorier om marknadskommunikation samt en teoretisk bakgrund som kretsade kring idrottens samhällsnytta. Den kvantitativa metoden användes för att skapa en övergripande blick av det insamlade resultatet. Det gick att utläsa tre återkommande teman i inläggen som Svenska Spel kommunicerade: hållbarhet, samhällsnytta och spelreklam. Hållbarhet och samhällsnytta analyserades vidare med en kvalitativ metod för att svara på resterande frågeställningar. Resultatet visar att det vanligaste inlägget som Svenska Spel publicerade var i form av reklam för att marknadsföra deras egna tjänster. Den samhällsnytta som Svenska Spel kommunicerar visas i form av olika projekt som ämnar att få mer människor i rörelse. Vidare kommunicerar företaget olika projekt som vill främja ett hållbart spelande och arbetet mot matchfixning inom idrotten.

Syftet med denna studie är att skapa kunskap kring användningen av digitala spel i fritidshemsverksamheten. Då barn och vuxna inte delar samma syn på digitala spel blir det svårt att bestämma om det är något som kan eller inte kan användas inom fritidshemsverksamheten. Vår studie utgick från ett sociokulturellt perspektiv för att se om det finns möjligheter att använda sig av de digitala spelen inom fritidshemsverksamheten och i så fall till vad. Vi ser även till ett barns perspektiv för att försöka förstå deras syn av de digitala spelen. Vi har frågat både barn och lärare hur och varför de använder digitala spel. Vi har valt att använda oss av en omgjord variant av ”walk and talk” och samtalspromenader, vi benämner detta play-and-talk med barnen och intervjuer med lärarna. Studien visar att det finns flera användningsområden för digitala spel men att det även finns negativa följder av dess användning.

Abstract:
I detta arbete undersöker jag ludonarrativ dissonans påverkan på ett spels trovärdighet. Spel idag får allt mer djupgående narrativ (Haggis, 2017) så ludonarrativ dissonans blir allt tydligare. Trovärdighet har en stark koppling till inlevelse som ofta ses som väldigt viktig (Brown & Cairns, 2004). I och med att ludonarrativ dissonans blir allt mer framträdande är det viktigt att vi undersöker dess påverkan på aspekter som trovärdighet. Min metod bestod av ett kort spel som innehöll ludonarrativ dissonans som testarna fick spela. Efter detta utförde jag en kvalitativ intervju med testarna. För de testare som tolkade dissonansen som ett problem från designprocessen försvagade dissonansen trovärdigheten. För de testare som såg dissonansen som ett karaktärsdrag hos huvudpersonen påverkade dissonansen inte trovärdigheten. Det förekom brister i min formulering av frågor för intervjun så i framtida arbete skulle jag göra om mina tester. I ett större sammanhäng skulle man kunna använda populära, etablerade spel som undersökningsmaterial.

Abstract:

Socialt ansvar är en faktor som har en betydande roll i dagens företagsklimat. Svenska Spel är ett företag som måste ta ett stort socialt ansvar, dels på grund av sina produkter och dels sin ägarstruktur. Deras produkter lockar med spännig och möjligheter till rikedom men produkterna har också en negativ baksida. Spelande kan leda till ett beroende där individen själv och andra människor i dess närhet påverkas och far illa. I och med utvecklandet av snabba spel och dess enkla tillgänglighet över Internet har kraven på spelbolagens sociala ansvar stärkts. Detta leder fram till vårt syfte: Att analysera i vilken utsträckning Svenska Spel tar sitt sociala ansvar utifrån vad de själva anser sig ta för ansvar samt hur deras intressenter upplever Svenska Spels sociala ansvarstagande. Vidare undrade vi hur Svenska Spel upplyser sina konsumenter om de negativa faktorerna kring deras spelprodukter och hur deras sociala ansvarstagande yttrar sig.

Vi genomförde en kvalitativ undersökning där vi intervjuade intressenter till Svenska Spel. Genom att använda en egenkonstruerad intressentmodell hittade vi representativa respondenter från de intressentkategorier som vi ansåg påverkades av eller själva påverkade Svenska Spel. Djupintervjuer användes för att skapa en djupare förståelse kring hur intressenterna uppfattade Svenska Spels sociala ansvar.

Den empirisk insamlade datan samt analysen är tematiskt indelad efter frågor rörande socialt ansvar, kommunikation, information och marknadsföring baserat på teorier rörande samma ämnen. Genom analysen har vi kunnat konstatera att

Svenska Spel enbart anser sig ha ett spelansvar och inget ansvar för de människor som utvecklat ett spelberoende. Svenska Spels intressenter menar att företaget inte tar ett tillfredställande socialt ansvar eftersom företaget inte finner sig ansvarigt för de negativa effekter företagets produkter åstadkommer.

Full text
Abstract:
In scanning probe energy loss spectroscopy (SPELS) an STM tip is used as a localised source of field emitted electrons by applying a high voltage. Energy loss measurements of the backscattered electrons provide spectroscopic information from the sample. The energy resolution is ≈0.3eV. In principle, a raster scan provides a spatially resolved image of these excitations. In this work, a new generation instrument is employed and developed in which the electrons are captured by an electrostatic lens system and focussed onto a multichannel detector using a 127° cylindrical-sector analyser. Additionally, a compact retarding field analyser has been built, which can be placed within 20mm of the tip position. Both detectors have been positioned at an angle of 7° to the surface plane, as most of the backscattered electrons are expected to emerge near the surface plane due to the high electric field between tip and sample. Ag and Au nanostructures on graphite designed for the SPELS instrument covering a large sample area have been prepared by electron beam lithography. The characteristics of the instrument have been measured, with high spatial resolution (down to 25nm) images showing various contrast mechanisms. Spatially resolved silver surface plasmon maps are presented.

Abstract:
Although the title "Software Engineer" is widely used throughout industry, each software practitioner who bears the title is not a software engineer by many standards. In many instances, people believe that "Software Engineer" is a euphemism for a "programmer" who writes well-structured code while others believe it is about the software used by engineers. These suppositions expose the ignorance about the historical and legal meaning of "Engineer". Furthermore, the general use of the designation "Engineer" by other non-engineering professions has resulted in weakening the title. Licensing and certification are two possible methods to restrict the use of and restore respectability to the title "Software Engineer ". Unfortunately, efforts to license and certify software engineers have led to debate, controversy and opposition throughout the software community. This dissertation presumes that the debate over licensing and certification of software engineers is not truly a debate about licensing and certification but a debate about classification. This dissertation presents a system called SPECS (Software Practitioner Expert Classification System). The researcher suggests that a preliminary step prior to initiating the process of certification or licensing should be one of classification. The goal of classification is to associate the proper job title with the professional qualifications and services of the practitioner. The SPECS prototype has an underlying foundation in software engineering. Eight key components are used to build the classification model. These components include initial professional education, accreditation, skills development, certification, licensing, professional societies, continuing education and code of ethics. The significance of this dissertation is through the research and development of the classification model and the decision support system SPECS, an organization is provided a standard method to properly classify software practitioners and thus identify software engineers that qualify for certification or licensing. In addition, the research contributes to the field of expert system validation, knowledge discovery and knowledge acquisition.

Full text
Abstract:
Face à la complexité croissante des systèmes logiciels, les architectures logicielles sont apparues comme un allié précieux pour la conception et la maintenance de ces systèmes. Cependant, pour de nombreux systèmes, la représentation de leur architecture n’est pas fiable ; elle est soit indisponible, soit insuffisante ou soit non mise à jour. Pour pallier ce problème qui met en danger la maintenance, l’évolution, la réutilisation et la migration d’un système, l’extraction d’une architecture du système est souvent proposée comme une bonne alternative. L’extraction d’une architecture logicielle est définie comme la science de l’analyse et de la conversion du code source en une architecture logicielle. Cette thèse contribue à apporter une solution au problème d’inexistence d’outil de mesure pour les processus d’extraction d’une architecture logicielle. Ainsi, nous proposons un méta-modèle appelé SArEM qui spécifie les différents processus d’extraction d’une architecture logicielle. Le méta-modèle est basé sur le métamodèle SPEM et couvre les principaux concepts des processus d’extraction d’une architecture logicielle. En outre, nous fournissons un outil qui permet aux architectes de construire leur propre processus, d’interagir avec les sorties générées et de découvrir une architecture logicielle conforme à leurs souhaits. Plus précisément, nous proposons une approche d’extraction d’une architecture logicielle appelée SAD basée sur ECD. SAD consiste à considérer l’extraction d’une architecture logicielle comme un processus de découverte de nouvelles connaissances. Ainsi, notre contribution est articulée autour deux points : le premier point est la suggestion d’un processus générique pour l’extraction d’une architecture logicielle et le second point est l’élaboration d’une extension d’un outil ECD qui supporte l’exécution des processus d’extraction d’une architecture logicielle
Face to the exponential growth in the size and complexity of software systems, software architectures emerge as a valuable ally for the design and maintenance of these systems. However, for many systems, their architecture representation is not reliable; it might be unavailable, insufficient, or out of date. To overcome this problem that puts the system maintenance, evolution, reuse and migration in danger, the extraction of the system architecture is proposed. The latter is defined as the science of analyzing and converting the source code to a software architecture. The thesis treats the gap of a measurement tool for software architecture extraction processes. We propose a meta-model called SArEM (Software Architecture Extraction Meta-model) that specifies the software architecture extraction processes. The meta-model is based on SPEM meta-model and covers the main concepts of software architecture extraction processes. Furthermore, we provide a manner that allows the architects to build their own process, interact with the generated outputs and discover a software architecture that satisfies them. Specifically, we propose a software architecture extraction approach called SAD (Software Architecture Discovery) based on KDD. SAD consists in considering the extraction of a software architecture as a process of discovering new knowledge. Thus, the contribution is centered on two points: the first point is the suggestion of a generic software architecture extraction process and the second point is the elaboration of a KDD tool extension that supports the execution of software architecture extraction processes

Abstract:
Fettleibigkeit und Adipositas haben in den letzten Jahren weltweit drastisch zugenommen. Die Fettleibigkeit geht nicht nur mit einer verringerten Lebensqualität einher, sondern ist auch mit verschiedenen Folgeerkrankungen, wie kardiovaskulären Erkrankungen (z.B. Arteriosklerose) und metabolische Erkrankungen (z.B. Diabetes) assoziiert. Vorliegende Studien belegen einen Zusammenhang zwischen Diabetes und männlicher Infertilität. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden daher die Spermienmembran wie auch das Seminalplasma (SP) mittels matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionisation time-of-flight Massenspektrometrie (MALDI-TOF MS) analysiert, um mögliche Lipid-Biomarker für die Fertilität bzw. Infertilität zu finden. Dafür wurde zunächst die MALDI-TOF MS Methode mit relevanten Standardlipiden optimiert. Anschließend konnte sowohl das Phospholipidmuster des SP mit dem Spermien verglichen werden als auch die Spermienlipide von normalgewichtigen und fettleibigen Probanden. Durch diese Analyse konnte das Phosphatidylcholin/Lysophosphatidylcholin (PC/LPC)-Verhältnis, aber auch ein stark erhöhter Sphingomyelin (SM)-Anteil bei den fettleibigen Probanden als Qualitätsmarker gefunden werden. Des Weiteren wurden im Rahmen dieser Arbeit murine Spermien aus dem Caput und dem Cauda der Epididymis mittels MALDI-TOF MS analysiert und das Phospholipidmuster miteinander verglichen. Es konnte damit gezeigt werden, dass die murinen Spermien einen wesentlich höheren Anteil an Stearinsäureresten aufweisen, die humanen Spermien hingegen vor allem durch Palmitinsäurereste charakterisiert sind. In den Spermienmembranen aus dem Cauda und dem Caput gab es wesentliche Unterschiede im Phospholipidmuster. Spermienmembranen aus dem Caput besitzen einen hohen Anteil an PC und Phosphatidylethanolamin (PE). Die Spermienmembranen aus dem Cauda hingegen enthalten mehr SM, und auch einen höheren Anteil an LPCs und Formyl-LPC. Diese Arbeit konnte somit zeigen, dass die Reifungsprozesse in der Epididymis auch die Phospholipid-Zusammensetzung betreffen.

Abstract:
Den här rapporten är en delrapport inom ramen för det Vinnovafinansierade projektet Strategiska partnerskap för effektiv och transparent samverkan (Spets) och belyser Malmö universitets samverkan med organisationer inom den idéburna sektorn. Rapporten bygger på en intervjustudie med tio idéburna organisationer, och speglar samverkan med Malmö universitet ur deras perspektiv: vilken samverkan som bedrivs, vad den ger organisationerna, utmaningar och hinder samt möjlighet för utveckling av samverkan, till exempel genom ett strategiskt partnerskapsavtal.Rapporten visar att det på Malmö universitet sker en hel del samverkan både kopplat till forskning, utbildning och nyttiggörande och att denna samverkan när den sker i relation till idéburen sektor främst är kopplad till tre av universitetets fakulteter – Fakulteten Kultur och samhälle, Fakulteten Hälsa och samhälle samt Fakulteten Lärande och samhälle. De intervjuade organisationernas motiv för samverkan med universitetet varierar, och undersökningen indikerar att organisationerna ser samverkan som ett sätt att fylla behov av kunskap och kompetensförsörjning, att genom vänlig kritik stimulera till nytänkande, samt att ge organisationerna ökad legitimitet i deras arbete för samhällsförändring. Undersökningen visar att det finns behov av ökad systematik i samverkan och att mer skulle kunna göras för att stärka samverkan kring forskning och utbildning. De intervjuade organisationerna lyfter behovet av mer forskning om och tillsammans med den idéburna sektorns organisationer och behovet av mer samverkan kopplat till studenters uppsatser och praktik. Här finns en möjlighet att möta organisationernas behov av kunskap, kompetens och framtida personal. Det finns även ett behov av fler arenor för möten, gärna regelbundet återkommande, mellan universitetet och den idéburen sektor, och organisationerna efterlyser även generellt ökade kunskaper om den idéburna sektorns särart, förutsättningar och behov, inom akademin såväl som i samhället i stort. Undersökningen belyser även behovet av utökat stöd och finansiering för forskare som samverkar med idéburen sektor, då finansiering av samverkan är ett särskilt problem.
