Today, the advances in airborne LIDAR technology provide high-resolution datasets that allow specialists to detect archaeological features hidden under wooded areas more efficiently. Still, the complexity and large scale of these datasets require automated analysis. In this respect, artificial intelligence (AI)-based analysis has recently created an alternative approach for interpreting remote sen
When assessing the moisture damage risks of different external wall designs using hygrothermal simulation software, the user of said software can choose between different inputs for the determination of the indoor climate. This paper aims to compare results from field measurements in three Swedish buildings using different standards available in a widely used commercial hygrothermal simulation sof
This overview examines available circum-Antarctic glacial history archives on land, related to developments after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). It considers the glacial-stratigraphic and morphologic records and also biostratigraphical information from moss banks, lake sediments and penguin rookeries, with some reference to relevant glacial marine records. It is concluded that Holocene environmen
Uppreningsprocessen av monoklonala antikroppar (mAbs) är dyr, speciellt det kromatografisteg där antikropparna separeras från andra protein och celler i lösningen från tidigare steg i processen. Antikropparna separeras från lösningen med hjälp av affinitetskromatografi, där det endast är antikropparna som interagerar med innehåller i kolonnen och stannar kvar, medan resten passerar obehindrat. AntThe purification process of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for therapeutic drugs is expensive, especially the chromatography step in which the mAbs are separated from other proteins and cells present in the feed. The antibodies are separated from the feed using affinity chromatography, where only the antibodies interact with active sites within the column, whereas the rest passes through the column

Agenda 2030 Graduate School monthly newsletter #6 2025-06-09 Ylva van Meeningen Hi! I do not know about you, but I am SO ready for summer and to not check my e-mails for weeks on end. It was pointed out to me recently that working within in academia is hard. Of course most of us know that, I know that. But this person compared it to their line of work and how the insane tempo that we have would no

Sammanfattning I Europakonventionen artikel 8 skyddas rätten till privatliv. Varje person har rätt till skydd av personuppgifter som tillhör honom eller henne. Globalisering och teknologisk utveckling har anmärkningsvärt förändrat sättet på hur personuppgifter behandlas. En uppdaterad lagstiftning för personuppgiftsskydd behövs och EUs föreslagna förordning reflekterar tydligt utmaningarna för Summary The protection of personal data is a fundamental right in accordance with Article 8 of the European Convention of Human Rights. Every person has the right to the protection of information that concerns him or her. Globalisation and technological advancements have enormously transformed the way our personal data is collected. An updated legislation on data protection is needed and the pr
Popular Abstract in Swedish Frontotemporal demens är ett sjukdomstillstånd där nervceller i hjärnans pann- (“fronto”) och tinninglober (“temporal”) förtvinar, vilket leder till en tilltagande cellförlust och uttunning av hjärnbarken i dessa områden. Till skillnad från Alzheimers sjukdom, den vanligaste demenssjukdomen, leder frontotemporal demens i första hand inte till försämrat minne och orienteThe present thesis explores alterations in brain morphology in the neurodegenerative disorder of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). With the aim to improve the clinical diagnostics of FTD, we explored the diagnostic potential of measuring morphological alterations in the white matter by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)- MRI, compared with the more commonly used assessment of grey matter thickness and vo
Background: There are differences in drug use depending on non-medical factors such as age, gender and socioeconomic status. The combined effect of these factors, with adjustment for multimorbidity, is highly relevant to study to ensure equality in drug use. Objectives: 1. To examine drug use related to age, gender, income and education after adjustment for multimorbidity, in an entire adult popul
Popular Abstract in Swedish Pyrimidiner är DNA-byggstenar som är essentiella för cellens överlevnad och delning. I mänskliga celler finns pyrimidiner att tillgå antingen genom återupptag eller genom biosyntes (nysyntes). Biosyntesen av pyrimidiner sker i flera steg och i ett av dem spelar enzymet Dihydroorotat dehydrogenas (DHODH) en avgörande roll genom att katalysera en oxidationsreaktion. När cIn the first part of the PhD work, small chemical entities (fragments) found to inhibit human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), were chemically optimized. As part of an ample program at Active Biotech to find new drugs against autoimmune diseases, expanded fragments were repeatedly designed, synthesized and evaluated in a human DHODH assay. Potent inhibitors were identified within three classe
Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodet har en viktig funktion i kroppen. Blodet bildas i den röda benmärgen och består av olika typer av celler med olika specialiserade funktioner, varav många livsnödvändiga. De röda blodkropparna transporterar syre till alla våra kroppsdelar så att våra muskler fungerar och vi orkar gå och springa och så att vår hjärna kan arbeta. De vita blodkropparna hjälper oss atThe t(6;9) translocation is found in a subset of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and is associated with a poor prognosis. The translocation results in the formation of the DEK-NUP214 fusion protein containing almost the entire nuclear protein DEK and two thirds of the nucleoporin NUP214. The molecular mechanisms behind the leukemic conversion of cells expressing the fusion protein DEK-N
Popular Abstract in Swedish p53 Ñett protein som kan fŒ leukemiceller att bli mera mogna Vid akut leukemi ansamlas omogna blodceller med nedsatt fšrmŒga till utmognad och programmerad celldšd. Detta leder till frŒnvaro av normala blodceller, vilket Šr huvudorsaken till de infektioner och blšdningsrubbningar som utgšr leukemins frŠmsta symptom. Akut leukemi har hittills framfšr allt behandlats medThe terminal differentiation of leukemic cells is closely connected to their death. The concept of differentiation therapy originates from the idea that forced maturation of leukemic cells could induce cell death without the side-effects that are provoked by ordinary chemotherapy. The tumour suppressor protein p53 is a transcription factor, and can induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of maligna
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den kroniska inflammation som ses hos personer med inflammatorisk tarmsjukdom är troligen en immunologisk reaktion riktad mot normala tarmbakterier. I denna process har monocyter/makrofager (särskild celltyp av vita blodkroppar) en central betydelse. Det är huvudsakligen makrofager i tarmslemhinnan som styr det immunsvar som utvecklas då tarmfloran kommer i kontakt med Inflammatory bowel disease is thought to result from the inappropriate and ongoing activation of the mucosal immune system driven by the presence of normal luminal flora. In this process monocytes/macrophages contribute to and maintain chronic inflammation by being both regulatory and effector cells. This study aimed at exploring the effects and regulation of chronic inflammation in inflammatory
Popular Abstract in Swedish Immunförsvaret har till uppgift att skydda kroppen mot främmande mikroorganismer såsom bakterier och virus. En rad olika celler, vävnader samt organ samarbetar för att utforma ett väl fungerande immunförsvar. Det är ytterst viktigt att immunförsvaret känner igen kroppsfrämmande ämnen (antigen), som till exempel bakterieceller, men också att det skiljer dessa från kroppsGeneration of long-lived plasma cells and memory B cells of high affinity takes place in germinal centers and depends on help from a specialized CD4+ T cell subset termed T follicular helper (Tfh) cells. These processes are crucial for long-term protection upon natural infection or in settings of vaccination, however they are also responsible for development of antibody-mediated autoimmune disease
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth cause of cancer-related death with a 5-year survival rate less than 5%. Two of the risk factors are chronic pancreatitis and type 2 diabetes (T2D), which are believed to promote the tumour progression. Pancreatic cancer and its tumour microenvironment is characterised by a dense stroma, immune cell infiltration and poor vascularisation. This creates a favourable env
Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Målet med denna avhandling var att undersöka hur cancersjukdomar i barndomen och behandlingen av dessa påverkar olika aspekter av fortplantningsförmågan i vuxen ålder. Glädjande nog har andelen patienter som överlever cancer i barndomen de senaste decennierna ökat stadigt till nivåer som idag ligger på nästan 80%. Ökad överlevnad medfChildhood cancer (CC) survival rate has increased over the last couple of decades, today approaching 80%. Therefore more attention has been paid to late effects. One important issue for CC survivors (CCS) is impaired reproductive function. CC per se and/or its treatment can impair the reproductive ability by affecting sperm production, as well as by damaging sperm DNA. This is a matter of concern,
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) uses the peritoneal membrane for dialysis. The peritoneal membrane is a thin layer of tissue that lines the abdomen. The lining is used as a filter to help remove extra fluid and poisonous waste from the blood. Everybody is unique. What is normal for one person’s membrane may be very different from another person’s. The kidney care team wants to provide each person with th
