1. Modulation of Neuronal Functions : the Role of SLC10A4
Sammanfattning : Mental health of a person depends on the correct functioning of the brain. The brain and the spinal cord contain many types of cells, of which one important type are called the neurons. Neurons are special in the way they connect to each other to form large networks. LÄS MER
2. Assessment of central auditory functions : methods and applications
Sammanfattning : Central auditory processing is complex and can not be completely evaluated by a single method. This thesis focuses on assessment of some aspects of central auditory functions by the use of dichotic speech tests, cognitive tests that tax functions important for speech processing and electrophysiological tests.

3. Central vestibular compensation : the role of the GABAB receptor
Sammanfattning : The remarkable capacity for adaptive plastic changes in response to changed internal or external conditions is a distinctive feature of the vestibular system. Even in adults the system can be modified throughout life due to altered conditions caused by disease. trauma, medical treatment or normal ageing. LÄS MER
4. Central adipocyte functions in specialized caveolae
Sammanfattning : Obesity and overweight is an increasing health problem in the world. Besides reducing quality of life obesity is a great risk factor for development of diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. The adipose tissue is a flexible organ that grows in size if the body is provided with excess energy. LÄS MER
5. Boundary singularities of plurisubharmonic functions
Sammanfattning : We study the Perron–Bremermann envelope P(μ, φ):=sup{u(z) ; u ∈ PSH(Ω), (ddcu)n≥ μ, u^* ≤ φ} on a B-regular domain Ω. Such envelopes occupy a central position within pluripotential theory as they, for suitable μ and φ harmonic and continuous on the closure of Ω, constitute unique solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the complex Monge–Ampère operator.
