1. Searching for food in complex environments : Integrating processes at multiple spatial scales
Sammanfattning : Resources are often unevenly distributed through the environment, resulting in a challenging task for insects to locate food, mates and oviposition sites. Consequently, there is an ongoing need to unravel how insects rely on behavioural and sensory traits while searching for resources in heterogeneous environments. LÄS MER
2. Tensions in Transdisciplinary Research : A study of a climate research group
Sammanfattning : In a time of sustainability predicaments and ‘grand challenges’, transdisciplinarity has been put forward as an approach through which researchers can engage with societal transformation for a better world. This study examines tensions that arise in the on-the-ground efforts of researchers to establish and manage a transdisciplinary research group within a Norwegian university. LÄS MER
3. Asymmetric [2,3]-Sigmatropic Rearrangement of Allylic Ammonium Ylides
Sammanfattning : The thesis describes the realization of an asymmetric [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of achiral allylic amines. It is divided into two parts; the first part deals with the development of a Lewis acid-mediated [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement and the second the asymmetric version thereof. LÄS MER
4. On the application and validation of multiplexed affinity assays
Sammanfattning : Proteins are essential macromolecules that carry out complex functions in human cells, tissues, and organs. They regulate a diverse set of biological processes and protect against pathogens. However, dysregulation or malformation of proteins can cause disease. LÄS MER
5. Rough beginnings : Executive function in adolescents and young adults after preterm birth and repeat antenatal corticosteroid treatment
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates long-term cognitive outcome in two cohorts of adolescents and young adults exposed to stressors during the perinatal period: one group born preterm (.... LÄS MER
