1. Techno-economic analysis and optimization of electrochemical energy storage solutions
Sammanfattning : The need to integrate the rapidly growing share of variable renewable energy sources in the power sector requires solutions that are capable of mitigating the intermittent nature of these sources. They are expected to constitute the backbone of the electricity generation system in the coming years in order to reach ambitious goals in terms of energy security and reduction of environmental impact.

2. Engineering more efficient multipotent mesenchymal stromal (stem) cells for systemic delivery as cellular therapy
Sammanfattning : Do mesenchymal progenitor cells naturally circulate in vivo? Are they fundamentally compatible with blood? What mechanism allows them to be in contact with blood? How do we make therapeutic cells with blood-compatible properties? Can we optimise their survival and therapeutic function upon systemic delivery? How should we best isolate and condition therapeutic multipotent mesenchymal stromal (stem) cells (MSCs) before infusion, to achieve an optimum and sustainable clinical response in patients? This thesis covers many aspects related to these questions. It describes how MSCs interact with the instant blood-mediated inflammatory reaction (IBMIR) upon infusion. LÄS MER
3. Molecular genetic studies on gliomas and capillary hemangioblastomas of the central nervous system
Sammanfattning : The molecular genetic alterations associated with the initiation and progression of central nervous system tumors are complex and poorly understood at present. This thesis aims at the further elucidation of the molecular genetics of two important types of central nervous system tumors: gliomas and capillary hemangioblastomas. LÄS MER
4. Inactivation of pulmonary surfactant and its prevention
Sammanfattning : Pulmonary surfactant is a lipoprotein complex coating the conducting airways down to the terminal airspaces. Its main function is to lower surface tension at the air liquid interface thus preventing alveolar collapse at end expiration. LÄS MER
