In 2024, Jennifer moved from Sydney, Australia to Lund, Sweden to start her PhD studies at the TNU, supervised by Pof. Åsa Petersén. In utilizing novel AAV-vectors and crossbreeding of animal models, Jennifer’s project aims to elucidate the specific hypothalamic circuitries important for the control of metabolism and emotion, with relevance to Huntington’s Disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis an

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen är en studie av hur energianvändning och luftföroreningar i Polen, Estland, Lettland och Litauen har förändrats under övergången till marknadsekonomi efter 1989. Avhandlingen består av sex artiklar, vilka behandlar tre aspekter av dessa förändringar. I de tre första artiklarna analyseras energistrukturen i de baltiska länderna Artikel I) och Polen (ArtikelThis thesis is a study of how energy use and air pollution in Poland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have been affected by the economic transition after 1989. It consists of six articles, which examine three different aspects of these changes. The first group of articles analyses the structure of energy use in the Baltic states (Article I) and Poland Articles II and III) at the outset of transitio

The work presented here aims at producing hydrogen for proton-exchange fuel-cell applications from hydrocarbons. This thesis describes an integrated catalytic converter comprising a steam-reforming reactor (heat of reaction supplied by catalytic combustion), a water-gas shift reactor and a preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide reactor, and the work performed on the fuel processing catalysts th

Phospholipid metabolism, including phosphatidylcholine (PC) biosynthesis, is crucial for various biological functions and is associated with longevity. Phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) is a protein that catalyzes the biosynthesis of PC, the levels of which change in various organs such as the brain and kidneys during aging. However, the role of PEMT for systemic PC supply is not

The ability of some animal taxa (e.g., nematodes, rotifers, and tardigrades) to enter an ametabolic (cryptobiotic) state is well known. Nevertheless, the phenotypic factors affecting successful anhydrobiosis have rarely been investigated. We report a laboratory study on the effects of body size, reproductive condition, and energetic condition on anhydrobiotic survival in a population of the eutard

Masses of 52Co, 52Com, 52Fe, 52Fem, and 52Mn have been measured with the JYFLTRAP double Penning trap mass spectrometer. The isobaric multiplet mass equation for the T = 2 quintet at A = 52 has been studied employing the new mass values. No significant breakdown (beyond the level) of the quadratic form of the IMME was observed (). The cubic coefficient was 6.0(32) keV (). The excitation energies f

The atmospheres of close-in planets are strongly influenced by mass loss driven by the high-energy (X-ray and extreme ultraviolet, EUV) irradiation of the host star, particularly during the early stages of evolution. We recently developed a framework to exploit this connection and enable us to recover the past evolution of the stellar high-energy emission from the present-day properties of its pla

Novel micro-scale reaction devices are progressing in various applications. Whereas, specialized gas-producing reactors of high conversion at micro/mini scale remain challenging and are rarely explored, but are needed urgently in new generation vehicles and aerospace applications. In this work, two kinds of high-aspect-ratio flat channel (200 μm depth, 5.0 mm width, and 40.0 mm length) microreacto

Wood charcoal is the main source of energy for cooking in urban Sub-Saharan Africa. It is widely known that charcoal production causes numerous environmental impacts, such as deforestation and environmental degradation. Interventions aimed at environmental improvements are common in Sub-Saharan Africa, however, there is limited focus on the trade-offs between the environmental and socio-economic i

Sincrotrone Trieste, collaborating with various institutions, has recently begun a 3-year project to develop a UV/VUV free-electron laser on the ELETTRA storage ring. The main features and novel technical aspects of the project are described, including the design of the optical cavity and undulator, the electron beam characteristics and a first assessment of the predicted laser performance.

Regulations to promote the application of renewable energy in the electricity sector are crucial to achieve the government’s target of increasing the share of renewable energy to 10 TWh within 10 years. Feed-In tariffs provides the highest certainty to accomplish a significant growth of renewable energy since it provide high certainty to investors and are easy to implement. For the design of a Fee
