Methods: Three different models, visualizing different health profiles, in the form of reported number of diseases and number of experienced symptoms in different combinations were created and are

Yeasts as cellular factories: Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains with improved inhibitor-tolerance to furaldehydes via a mutant alcohol dehydrogenase- and- Human ameloblastin production in Pichia pastoris

Several yeast species, usually engineered by humans in order to produce compounds of biotechnological interests, are currently used as cellular factories. This thesis presents two main themes. In the first, Saccharomyces cerevisiae is used for bio-ethanol production from lignocellulose hydrolysates and in the second Pichia pastoris is used for the heterologous expression of human ameloblastin. Th

The concept of the firm in economic geography

This paper argues that the poor conceptualization of the "firm" in economic geography detracts from the analytical strengths and policy relevance of the discipline. Identified as a phenotype, the firm remains ambiguous as an analytical category. This paper reviews nine overlapping conceptualizations of the firm in order to identify their relevance to the economic geography project. It discusses th
