In addition to its complex structure, the cerebral cortex has multiple functions exclusive to humans. Unfortunately, it also plays a crucial role in multiple neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. Although we know very little about human-specific gene regulatory mechanisms during brain development, non-coding RNAs are evolutionarily non-conserved, evolve faster, and are highly expressed in
Abstract Author: Mikaela Johansson Borg Title: The values of life - a study of how our life values changes during the years of development. Supervisor: Anders Östnäs Assessor: Christina Erneling The purpose of the study was to describe and analyze of life values based upon different ages, in order to make comparison between them. Life values mean what you as an individual state as the most impo
Att uppskatta lövyteindex med satellitdata Vegetation har unika spektrala egenskaper som kan användas inom fjärranalys för att få information om viktiga ekologiska parametrar, som t.ex löyteindex (eng. leaf area index, LAI, lövyta per markenhet). LAI styr många ekologiska processer som fotosyntes och transpiration. Med hjälp av satellitbilder kan man uppskatta LAI i stor skala. Vegetation absorLeaf area index, LAI, is an important biophysical parameter in ecological modeling. It is the ratio of leaf area per unit ground area. To obtain LAI over large areas in a fast and convenient way the use of satellite data is important. Aim of the project was to determine if there is a relationship between LAI and red-, NIR reflectance and a couple of vegetation indices: Global Environment Monitorin
In today's industry the need for fast logging of measurements is increasing. Existing systems used by Tetra Pak AB have a maximum logging frequency which is inadequate. As a result of this Tetra Pak gave Industriprojektbyrån AB the task of developing a measuring system for this purpose. Industriprojektbyrån AB has before the start of this thesis developed the hardware set up for the system. Th
The aim of this thesis is to present experiences and lessons learned from the initial implementation process of the rating system STARS at Washington University in St. Louis: mainly the strengths/opportunities can be used to overcome the weaknesses/threats that the STARS implementation may entail. Strengths and opportunities such as increased student involvement in processes such as assessing sust
Syfte: Syftet med arbetet var att undersöka hur jag som sångare upplever instudering och interpretation av två nyskrivna stycken beroende på hur involverad jag är i tonsättarens skrivandeprocess. Hur påverkas min instudering och interpretation av min involvering i tonsättarens kreativa process, och vilka skillnader upplever jag i förhållande till min egen inblandning i styckets uppkomst? Metod: TvAim: The aim of this study was to examine how I as a singer experience the studies and interpretation of two newly written pieces depending on how involved I am in the composer’s process of writing. How does my involvement in the composer’s creative process affect my studying and interpretation and what differences do I experience in relation to my own involvement in the making of the piece? Metho
About 80% of all Swedish social workers are women, which makes male social workers a minority in the Swedish social workers labour force. Research shows that men in women dominated professions get benefits in relation to women. One of the benefits that men possess is that they become more sought after in the women dominated labour market. Our purpose with this study was to examine how male social
Uppsatsens syfte var att undersöka hur bankernas risktagande uppfattades av marknaden till följd av åtgärdsprogrammen, samt att föra en diskussion kring de bakomliggande orsakerna och dess implikationer. Vad vi kan konstatera är att det finns en korrelation mellan den risk som aktieägare bedömer i bankaktierna och den faktiska risk som bankerna utsätter sig för. Vår studie har även bevisat att akt
Previous studies have shown that the functional efficacy of intrastriatal transplants of fetal dopamine (DA) neurons in the rat Parkinson model depends on their ability to establish a new functional innervation of the denervated striatum. Here we report that the survival, growth, and function of the grafted DA neurons greatly depend on the severity of the lesion of the host nigrostriatal system. F
We investigate the potential of different pre-fetching and/or caching strategies for different user behaviour with respect to surfing or browsing in a catch-up-TV network. To this end we identify accounts and channels associated with strong or weak surfing or browsing respectively and study the distributions of hold times for the different types of behaviour. Finally we present results from a requ
Background: Neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant treatment has led to an improved survival in patients with resectable gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEAC). Nevertheless, survival rates remain poor and, hence, there is a great need to identify novel treatment strategies and relevant complementary diagnostics. Immunotherapies targeting the PD‐1/PD‐L1 checkpoints have shown promising results, but simultane
Research on development aid has focused on Western powers—the global South's 20th century colonial masters—largely ignoring the practices of donors who are not members of the West-dominated Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development and its Development Assistance Committee (DAC). This article informs about the world of "non-DAC donors," through examining Polish development aid and its s
In architecture and urban geography, discussions on repair, maintenance and adap5ve re-usehave emerged as a crucial intellectual terrain. Temporal aspects of how the urban fabric isused have also emerged as an issue worth theore5cal and empirical a=en5on. Latching ontothese themes, we will present work tracking the history of conten5on around the publiclyowned mee5ng and arts venue in Lund’s Peopl
This study examines the relationship between critical thinking and the use of Big Data Analytics (BDA) in decision-making among white-collar professionals. It focuses on three key areas: the influence of BDA reliance on critical thinking, the connection between professional experience and cognitive reasoning, and the demands of strategic decision-making compared to tactical and operational roles.
