1. Aging Along the Hippocampal Axis : Structure, Function and Whole-brain Connections in Association with Memory
Sammanfattning : Hippocampus-dependent functions display marked reductions in older age, an observation that has led to the extensive study of age effects on hippocampal properties. Even though research indicates that the hippocampus is structurally and functionally heterogeneous along its longitudinal axis, its anterior and posterior regions differentially supporting episodic and spatial memory representations, few studies explicitly consider age effects in relation to axis.

2. On protein oxidation, lifespan and aging in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we have investigated the physiology of protein oxidation and its possible role in the aging of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. There are two ways to measure yeast aging. First, they can only divide a finite number of times even when all nutrients necessary for division are provided. This is replicative aging. LÄS MER
3. Vehicle emissions abatement: NO oxidation and ammonia SCR
Sammanfattning : The design and the development of catalytic systems for reducing vehicle emissions is a complex task due to the variety of components in a wide range of gas flow and temperature. A complete system is, therefore, composed of a series of catalysts or catalytic systems, each of which is dealing with a particular aspect of the abatement process. LÄS MER
4. Protein-based Packaging Films, Sheets and Composites: Process Development and Functional Properties
Sammanfattning : The depletion of the petroleum resources and a number of environmental concerns led to considerable research efforts in the field of biodegradable materials over the last few decades. Of the diverse range of biopolymers, wheat gluten (WG) stands out as an alternative to synthetic plastics in packaging applications due to its attractive combination of flexibility and strength, high gas barrier properties under low humidity conditions and renewability.

5. On Retirement and Cognitive Aging from a Life-Span Perspective
Sammanfattning : Retirement is a major life event potentially affecting domains such as cognitive functioning and well-being. The main aim of this thesis was to assess whether retirement influences cognitive functioning and how inter- and intra-individual differences in psychological and lifestyle factors moderate the association.
