Virus är bland de enklaste biologiska objekt i vår omgivning. Vanligen består de av en behållare av protein molekyler, en så kallad viruskapsel, som att bygga på denna viktiga insikt leder vi en bred studie av Herpesvirus där vi utforskar fysikaliska mekanismer som styr virus infektionen och ge en möjlighet till att kontrollera och även stoppa den. Dessutom öppnar studierna porten till strategierMy research area is Virus Biophysics. Research focuses on key physical mechanisms controlling replication of double-stranded DNA and RNA viruses. Experimental model systems used in my group are dsDNA bacteriophages, human Herpes viruses and Rotaviruses. I am specifically interested in physical mechanisms of genome packaging and ejection from viral capsids, viral packaging motors, DNA structural tr

Preeclampsia is a severe pregnancy-related condition that annually affects 10M women worldwide. The etiology is largely unknown and diagnosis is currently based on maternal clinical symptoms: high blood pressure and organ damage manifesting after 20 weeks of gestation. Delivery is currently the only cure. Increased long-term risk for cardiovascular diseases and stroke after preeclampsia point to i

This thesis scrutinises the concept of the European Super League in light of EU competition law and aims to provide an answer to the question whether the rules on prior authorisation by FIFA and UEFA infringe Article 101 and/or Article 102 TFEU, and whether the European Super League itself infringes Article 101 TFEU. The outcome of this thesis is that both questions must be answered in the affirma

Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) is diagnosed at a metastatic stage, conferring an unfavorable prognosis. The natural history of the disease is poorly understood, which complicates diagnosis, treatment and follow-up. Population-based survival data are lacking regarding location and histology of metastases. From the Swedish Cancer Registry, 18 911 CUP patients were identified between years 1987 and

Arsenal F.C., Manchester City F.C. and Newcastle United F.C. are three leading football clubs in the English Premier League. These three clubs are consolidated in terms of having a rich history, culture and traditions as well as local embeddedness. Douglas B. Holt’s contributions to the field of branding added a new dimension to how to operate a brand and are recurrently being used in new research

Values of the scavenging coefficient determined from observations of ultrafine particles ( with diameters in the range 10 - 510 nm) during rain events at a boreal forest site in Southern Finland between 1996 and 2001 were reported by Laakso et al. (2003a). The estimated range of the median values of the scavenging coefficient was [ 7 x 10(-6)- 4 x 10(-5)] s(-1), which is generally higher than mode

Cancer of unknown primary site (CUP) may be called an orphan disease, as it is diagnosed when metastases are detected while the primary tumor typically remains undetected, and because little research has been done on its primary causes. So far, few epidemiological studies, if any, have addressed possible risk factors for CUP. We analyzed data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer

Omegapoint AB acquired a TurtleBot 2 to explore one of the more popular open source robots on the market. Omegapoint wanted a web application, written specifically for them, to control the TurtleBot 2 for use in the Omegapoint office environment. One of the main things taken into consideration when designing the application was that it had to be runnable and usable not only on stationary computers

There are currently increasing concerns about escalating crude oil prices, depleted petroleum resources, and environmental damages caused by plastics. In light of this, bio-based and biodegradable materials, such as polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), have gained global attention from industry and academia as sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based materials. Poly-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is the simple
