11. Heterogeneity of human metabolism in health and disease: a modelling perspective
Sammanfattning : Metabolism is broadly defined as the sum of biochemical reactions within cells that are involved in maintaining the living state of the organism. Profound importance of metabolism comes from the fact that it is the sole source of energy that allows life to resist to be degraded into entropy. LÄS MER
12. Modelling Sexual Interactions : Sexual behaviour and the spread of sexually transmitted infections on dynamic networks
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we develop statistical and mathematical models to study different factors of relevance for the spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Two special interest groups for STI interventions are considered: sexually active youths and men who have sex with men (MSM). LÄS MER
13. Blood-Brain Barrier Transport of Drugs Across Species with the Emphasis on Health, Disease and Modelling
Sammanfattning : The transport of drugs across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) has been investigated in different species using morphine and morphine-6-glucuronide (M6G) as model compounds. The influence of probenecid on the BBB transport of morphine and M6G was investigated, and the consequences of meningitis and severe brain injury on the concentrations of morphine in the brain were examined.

14. Similarity-based processes in human multiple-cue judgment : evidence from brain imaging and cognitive modelling
Sammanfattning : Background: We often make judgments that require the consideration of several sources of information. For example, a teacher that grades a student´s exam question often integrates multiple sources of information (cues: details provided in the answer) into a single criterion dimension (the grade).

15. Pharmacometrics to characterize innate immune response and antibacterial treatments
Sammanfattning : The immune system protects the host against pathogens by distinguishing self from non-self. However, it is most-often disregarded in pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PKPD) characterization of (new and old) antibiotics. LÄS MER
