11. Mathematical Modelling of Cerebral Metabolism : From Ion Channels to Metabolic Fluxes
Sammanfattning : The brain is the most metabolically active organ in the human body and therefore rely on a continuous supply of oxygen and glucose. Neuronal stimulation in specific regions of the leads to the firing of action potentials, a process facilitated by voltage-gated ion channels in the neurons’ cell membranes. LÄS MER
12. Structuring empirical knowledge on environmental issues : urban heavy metal metabolism
Sammanfattning : During the last century, there has been a large import of heavy metals to urban areas. Only a small fraction, about 10%, has reached the biosphere, the rest is still residing in various goods such as cables, construction materials, technical equipment and batteries, which are still in use or abandoned in infrastructure, buildings, households, enterprises and vehicles.

13. Environmental, Resource and Health Assessments of Hard Materials and Material Substitution: The Cases of Cemented Carbide and Polycrystalline Diamond
Sammanfattning : The conventional hard material used in manufacturing industry, cemented carbide (WC-Co), mainly consists of the geochemically scarce elements tungsten and cobalt. This use of scarce resources could potentially be avoided by a material substitution to the more abundant and largely carbon-based material polycrystalline diamond (PCD). LÄS MER
14. Emotional distress and depressive mood in pregnant and new mothers : women’s and men’s perceptions of parenthood during the first year after childbirth
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to study the prevalence of maternal emotional distress and depressive mood in pregnant and new mothers and the consequences for women’s and men’s perceptions of the unborn and newborn infant, parenthood and everyday life during the first year after childbirth. Method: Project A. LÄS MER
15. Making Sense of Extended Producer Responsibility: Towards a framework for policy transfer
Sammanfattning : Policy transfer of complex interventions often falls into the trap of uninformed, incomplete, and/or inappropriate transfer because the interventions are insufficiently identified with some of their perceived core components. This is no exception in the interspatial learning about extended producer responsibility (EPR) programmes. LÄS MER
