1. Nanoplasmonic Biosensing - Exploring Unique Possibilities
Sammanfattning : Bioanalytical sensors are indispensible tools in medical diagnostics and drug discovery as well as for life science research, environmental monitoring and food safety. In essence, they are used to detect and determine the concentrations of specific biomolecules in complex mixtures. LÄS MER
2. Photoluminescence-based characterization of bioengineered nanovesicles and erbium emitters
Sammanfattning : In recent decades, photoluminescence properties of single molecules and ions have opened new possibilities for studies on smaller size scales, below the light-diffraction limit. In this thesis, the advantages of such single photon emitters were harnessed and studied mainly in the field of biophysics, but also, in investigations within solid state photonics. LÄS MER
3. High-resolution Imaging of Cleared and Expanded Kidney Tissue Samples
Sammanfattning : The kidney is one of the most important and complex organs in the humanbody with the task of filtering hundreds of litres of blood daily. It is responsiblefor the salt and acid/base balance in the body, as well as secretinghormones important for red blood cell production and blood pressure regulation. LÄS MER
4. Creating cell microenvironments in vitro
Sammanfattning : Stem cells have a great potential to bring about advancements in fields like developmental biology, drug discovery, cancer biology and tissue engineering. In order to be able to use stem cells to their full potential, it is important to have control over their behavior. LÄS MER
5. Fragment-based drug discovery : Novel methods and strategies for identifying and evolving fragment leads
Sammanfattning : The need for new drugs became ever more apparent in the year 2020 when the world was faced with a viral pandemic. How drugs are discovered and their relevance to society became part of daily discussions in workplaces and homes throughout the world. Consequently, efficient strategies for preclinical drug discovery are clearly needed. LÄS MER
