1. Olfactory Transfer of Analgesic Drugs After Nasal Administration
Sammanfattning : Nasal administration of analgesics for achieving rapid pain relief is currently a topic of great interest. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) restricts access to the central nervous system (CNS) for several central-acting drugs, such as morphine and dihydroergotamine, which results in a substantial effect delay.

2. Computational Modelling of Early Olfactory Processing
Sammanfattning : Chemical sensing is believed to be the oldest sensory ability. The chemical senses, olfaction and gustation, developed to detect and analyze information in the form of air- or waterborne chemicals, to find food and mates, and to avoid danger. LÄS MER
3. Early Information Processing in the Vertebrate Olfactory System : A Computational Study
Sammanfattning : The olfactory system is believed to be the oldest sensory system. It developed to detect and analyse chemical information in the form of odours, and its organisation follows the same principles in almost all living animals - insects as well as mammals. LÄS MER
4. Machine Learning Techniques with Specific Application to the Early Olfactory System
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with machine learning techniques for the extraction of structure and the analysis of the vertebrate olfactory pathway based on related methods. Some of its main contributions are summarized below. LÄS MER
5. Nasal administration of compounds active in the central nervous system : Exploring the olfactory system
Sammanfattning : The nasal administration of drugs offers advantages over administration by intravenous injection. Drugs can be rapidly absorbed through the nasal mucosa, resulting in a rapid onset of action, and also avoiding degradation in the gastrointestinal tract and first-pass metabolism in the liver.
