1. Flight Behaviour of Passerines on Nocturnal Migration
Sammanfattning : Many passerines migrate during the night and at high altitudes, making their migration difficult to observe. By using tracking radars we have been able to make exact observations of the flight behaviour of passerines on nocturnal migration, which has enabled us to test several hypotheses about adaptive values and constraints regarding migratory behaviour in different ecological contexts.

2. Characterization of Male Breast Cancer : From Molecule to Clinical Outcome
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate different aspects of male breast cancer (MBC), and to compare these with findings in female breast cancer (FBC). In paper I, a population–based study was performed to investigate possible differences in treatment and outcome between MBC and FBC patients. LÄS MER
3. Perinatal programming and neuroendocrine function
Sammanfattning : Perinatal growth and development are dependent on a sufficient metabolic, hormonal and nutritional environment. Suboptimal conditions during specific perinatal developmental windows can lead to permanent programming of physiological systems in the fetus or newborn, with implications for adult health. LÄS MER
4. Microarray Based Gene Expression Analysis in Cancer Research
Sammanfattning : Biotechnological inventions during the 20th century have resulted in a wide range of approaches for explorations in the functional genomics field. Microarray technology is one of the recent advances which have provided us with snapshots of which genes are expressed in cells of various tissues and diseases. LÄS MER
5. Characterization of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli water isolates
Sammanfattning : Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli are together the most common cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in the European Union. Campylobacter can be transmitted to humans via contaminated water, but it is largely unknown how these bacteria survive in water. LÄS MER
