  1. 16. Bioprospecting and deep-sea genetic resources in a fragmenting international law

    Författare :Niels Krabbe; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; public international law; law of the sea; international environmental law; WTO law; bioprospecting; biotechnology; genetic resources; deep-sea; biological diversity; areas beyond national jurisdiction; fragmentation; treaty interpretation; norm conflict; regimes; commons; conflict clauses;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates if public international law manages to function as a coherent system in the case of deep-sea bioprospecting, where rules in three regimes provide seemingly inconsistent obligations for states. Based on an investigation of the development of bioprospecting and patenting of deep-sea genetic resources, the study explores how rules in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the World Trade Organization Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (WTO TRIPS) apply to such activities.

  3. 17. Synthesis and Optical Properties of ZnO Nanostructures

    Författare :Li-Li Yang; Qingxiang Zhao; Magnus Willander; Jinghai Yang; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ZnO nanorods; size-controllable growth; post-annealing; optical properties; Optical physics; Optisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : One-dimensional ZnO nanostructures have great potential applications in the fields of optoelectronic and sensor devices. Therefore, it is really important to realize the controllable growth of one-dimensional ZnO nanostructures and investigate their properties. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Gating and modulation mechanism of voltage gated sodium channels

    Författare :Koushik Choudhury; Lucie Delemotte; Erik Lindahl; Philip Biggin; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Voltage gated sodium channels; Molecular dynamics simulation; π-helix; open state; Biologisk fysik; Biological Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav channels) play an essential role in nerve impulse conduction in excitable cells. Thus, these channels are involved in several neurological and muscular disorders. Understanding their mechanism of functioning  is essential for designing drugs targeting them. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Tau fragments: role as biomarkers and in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and other tauopathies

    Författare :Claudia Cicognola; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; tau; fragments; Alzheimer s disease; tauopathy; cerebrospinal fluid;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract Tau protein is physiologically expressed in neurons, where it is involved in microtubule assembly and stability. Tau functions are rigorously regulated by a series of modifications, e.g. phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Exploring social-cultural explanations for residential location choices : the case of an African City - Dar es Salaam

    Författare :Tatu Mtwangi Limbumba; Rolf Johansson; Andrew Byerley; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Residential location choices; informal settlements; social networks; social capital; African cities; Architectural conservation and restoration; Bebyggelsevård;

    Sammanfattning : This study explores the factors urban residents consider when making residential location decisions. The context of the study is informal residential areas in a rapidly urbanising African city – the city of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania. LÄS MER
