  1. 1. Modalities of Mind : Modality-specific and nonmodality-specific aspects of working memory for sign and speech

    Sammanfattning : Language processing is underpinned by working memory and while working memory for signed languages has been shown to display some of the characteristics of working memory for speech-based languages, there are a range of anomalous effects related to the inherently visuospatial modality of signed languages. On the basis of these effects, four research questions were addressed in a series of studies:1. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Modalities of Place: On Polarisation and Exclusion in Concepts of Place and in Site-Specific Art

    Författare :Gunnar Sandin; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; interior design; Architecture; Actants; Modalities; Place; Site-Specific Art; Arkitektur; inredningsarkitektur;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis the notion of place is studied by way of investigating the “non-place” which is excluded or opposed, whenever a place is defined. “Non-place” is used here as a meta-concept, covering various recurring types of opposition to “place,” and it therefore represents a profoundly incoherent spect-rum of realities and concepts.

  3. 3. The effect of modality on social presence, presence and performance in collaborative virtual environments

    Författare :Eva-Lotta Sallnäs; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; collaborative virtual environments; modalities; media richness; social presence; presence; communication media; haptic force feedback; Information technology; Informationsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Humans rely on all their senses when interacting with others in order to communicate and collaborate efficiently. In mediated interaction the communication channel is more or less constrained, and humans have to cope with the fact that they cannot get all the information that they get in face-to-face interaction.

  4. 4. Novel Treatment Modalities for High-Risk Neuroblastoma : Studies in Animal Models

    Författare :Dieter Fuchs; Faranak Azarbayjani; Rolf Christofferson; Sven Påhlman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; neuroblastoma; bevacizumab; SU11248; GMX1778; GMX1777; animal model; Medicine; Medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood, is a heterogeneous tumor. In some patients, the tumor can go into spontaneous regression and disappear whereas other patients have rapidly growing tumors with a poor prognosis. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Magnetic bead-based isolation of biological therapeutic modalities

    Författare :Nils A. Brechmann; Véronique Chotteau; Nigel Titchener-Hooker; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Magnetic bead separation; Magnetic beads; Protein A; Protein G; Negative cell isolation; Monoclonal antibody; induced pluripotent stem cells; human mesenchymal stem cells; Allogenic cell therapy; Biomanufacturing; cell clarification; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Biopharmaceutical modalities, such as monoclonal antibodies or the less established cell therapies, are nowadays very important for the treatment of severe or incurable diseases. The manufacturing of such modalities is complex and costly, including the downstream processing, which is highly essential to ensure the safety and quality of the product. LÄS MER
