1. Essays on Ethnic Segregation and Economic Outcomes
Sammanfattning : Essay 1: This paper studies tipping behaviour in the residential mobility of the native population inSweden between 1990 and 2007. Using regression discontinuity methods, we find that thegrowth in native population in a neighbourhood discontinuously drops once aneighbourhood’s immigrant share exceeds the identified tipping point.

2. Angle Resolved Light Scattering in Turbid Media : Analysis and Applications
Sammanfattning : Light scattering in turbid media is essential for such diverse application areas as paper and print, computer rendering, optical tomography, astrophysics and remote sensing. This thesis investigates angular variations of light reflected from plane-parallel turbid media using both mathematical models and reflectance measurements, and deals with several applications.

4. Anterior Cruciate Ligament injury, Patient Variables, Outcomes and Knee Osteoarthritis
Sammanfattning : The ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) leads to immediate symptoms that severely affect the individual and receives great attention among the scientific community, yet there is still no consensus on the optional form of treatment. An ACL injury is also a well known high risk factor for the development of knee osteoarthritis (OA) some decades later. LÄS MER
5. Asthma and IgE-reactivity in childhood : risk factors and consequences
Sammanfattning : Many children have asthma-like wheezing symptoms during their first years of life, yet only a minority develop asthma. Attempts to identify wheezing children at increased risk of asthma have been conducted, but the value for the clinician has been limited. LÄS MER
