Future sea ice weakening amplifies wind-driven trends in surface stress and Arctic Ocean spin-up
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-12)Arctic sea ice mediates atmosphere-ocean momentum transfer, which drives upper ocean circulation. How Arctic Ocean surface stress and velocity respond to sea ice decline and changing winds under global warming is unclear. Here we show that state-of-the-art climate models consistently predict an increase in future (2015–2100) ocean surface stress in response to increased surface wind speed, declining ... -

Pangenomic landscapes shape performances of a synthetic genetic circuit across Stutzerimonas species
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-21)Engineering identical genetic circuits into different species typically results in large differences in performance due to the unique cellular environmental context of each host, a phenomenon known as the “chassis-effect” or "context-dependency". A better understanding of how genomic and physiological contexts underpin the chassis-effect will improve biodesign strategies across diverse microorganisms. ... -
Discussing the concept of substance-induced psychosis (SIP)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-09-10)Substance-induced psychosis (SIP) is characterized by both substance use and a psychotic state, and it is assumed that the first causes the latter. In ICD-10 the diagnosis is categorized as and grouped together with substance use disorders, and to a large extent also treated as such in the health care system. Though criticism of the diagnostic construct of SIP dates back several decades, numerous ... -
