PHB production both from glucose and xylose has also been enabled by engineering the robust baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, however yields remain low. In the present study, additional modifications were carried out in S. cerevisiae strains already expressing functional enzymatic pathways for

Utifrån dessa tankar om mentorskap och utifrån dagens debatt kring utrikes föddas (icke-)möjligheter

Research shows that women’s labour market participation in low- and middle-income countries promotes female economic empowerment. However, it is still unclear if and how increased economic opportunities, e.g. through labour market participation, affects women’s exposure to intimate partner violence and overall well-being. Economic bargaining models shed light on the economic empowerment of women a
