  1. 1. To Share or Not to Share? : Expectations of and Experiences with eHealth Services that Allow Users Access to their Health Information

    Författare :Christiane Grünloh; Jan Gulliksen; Åke Walldius; Gerhard Hartmann; Sabine Koch; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; eHealth; electronic health records; technological frames; expectations; patients; health care professionals; Människa-datorinteraktion; Human-computer Interaction; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates expectations of and experiences with eHealth services that allow users access to their health information. Although eHealth services are endorsed by many politicians and patients, they are met with strong resistance by health care professionals. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Epigenetic Regulation of Genomic Imprinting and Higher Order Chromatin Conformation

    Författare :Gholamreza Tavoosidana; Rolf Ohlsson; Job Dekker; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Epigenetic; Imprinting; Chromatin; CTCF; H19 ICR; 4C; Utvecklingsbiologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : The genetic information encoded by the DNA sequence, can be expressed in different ways. Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that results in monoallelic expression of imprinted genes in a parent of origin-dependent manner. Imprinted genes are frequently found in clusters and can share common regulatory elements. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Someone has to tell them : exploring hereditary cancer risk disclosure in Sweden

    Författare :Carolina Hawranek; Anna Rosén; Senada Hajdarevic; Beatrice S. Melin; Barbro Numan Hellquist; Maria Katapodi; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cancer; hereditary cancer; prevention; family disclosure; family communication; cancer worry; risk information; at-risk relatives; cascade testing; genetic counselling; public opinion; Oncology; onkologi; Genetics; genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Summary in EnglishBackground: An awareness of hereditary susceptibility for breast, ovarian and colorectal cancer in high-risk families enables targeted cancer prevention. A discovered hereditary risk in one family member (proband) may thus be important for several members of that family. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Reconciling gene family evolution and species evolution

    Författare :Joel Sjöstrand; Jens Lagergren; Nicolas Lartillot; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computational biology; Bioinformatics; Phylogenetics; Phylogenomics; Comparative genomics; Evolutionary biology; datalogi; Computer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Species evolution can often be adequately described with a phylogenetic tree. Interestingly, this is the case also for the evolution of homologous genes; a gene in an ancestral species may – through gene duplication, gene loss, lateral gene transfer (LGT), and speciation events – give rise to a gene family distributed across contemporaneous species.

  7. 5. Embedded high-resolution stereo-vision of high frame-rate and low latency through FPGA-acceleration

    Författare :Carl Ahlberg; Mikael Ekström; Ignacio Bravo Munoz; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer vision; stereo vision; FPGA; embedded systems; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Autonomous agents rely on information from the surrounding environment to act upon. In the array of sensors available, the image sensor is perhaps the most versatile, allowing for detection of colour, size, shape, and depth. For the latter, in a dynamic environment, assuming no a priori knowledge, stereo vision is a commonly adopted technique. LÄS MER
