Diabetes results from loss or dysfunction of insulin producing beta cells in the pancreas. Despite insulin injection treatment, diabetic patients suffer from long-term complications, such as blindness and kidney failure. Therefore, a central goal of diabetes research is to regenerate beta cells or produce large numbers of functional beta cells for transplantation. The successful generation of beta

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

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

Reglerna för att främja den effektiva konkurrensen utvecklas ständigt. Ett av de senaste tilltagen är att företag kan beviljas nedsättning av skadestånd för sin delaktighet i kartellverksamhet i utbyte mot samarbete. Dessa s.k. ''leniency''-program har sitt ursprung i USA, vilka skapade det första programmet år 1978. Flera länder har därefter följt i deras spår och den europeiska u

This study explores the Chinese computational propaganda exploitation during the Covid-19 crisis. By demonstrating the intricacies of this case of computational propaganda utilization, this research attempts to answer an even larger question: How do authoritarian countries incorporate computational propaganda to their soft power strategies. To that end, first; a theoretical bridge was formed betwe
