  1. 6. Social causality in motion : Visual bias and categorization of social interactions during the observation of chasing in infancy

    Författare :Martyna A. Galazka; Pär Nyström; Gustaf Gredebäck; Moritz Daum; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; social causality; motion; animacy perception; chasing goal-directed motion; heat-seeking; EEG; P400; Nc; spatial proximity; non-contact causality; functional specialization; specialized perception; evolution; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Since the seminal work of Fritz Heider and Marienne Simmel (1944) the study of animacy perception, or the perception and attribution of life from the motion of simple geometrical shapes has intrigued researchers. The intrigue for psychologists and vision scientists then and today centered on the stark disconnect between the simplicity of the visual input and the universal richness of the resulting percept.

  2. 7. Sexual Conflict and Gene Expression in Drosophila melanogaster

    Författare :Paolo Innocenti; Edward Morrow; Göran Arnqvist; Andrew G Clark; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sexual conflict; sexual selection; male-female coevolution; gene expression; transcriptome; microarrays; sexual dimorphism; Drosophila; Biology; Biologi; Biologi med inriktning mot zooekologi; Biology with specialization in Animal Ecology; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Sexual conflict is broadly defined as a conflict between the evolutionary interests of the two sexes. Depending on the genetic architecture of the traits involved, it can occur at the level of male-female interactions or take the form of selection acting to change the mean of a shared trait against the sign of its genetic correlation.

  3. 8. New Paradigms in GPCR Drug Discovery : Structure Prediction and Design of Ligands with Tailored Properties

    Författare :Mariama Jaiteh; Jens Carlsson; David E Gloriam; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; G Protein-Coupled Receptor; Molecular Docking; Virtual Screening; Homology Modeling; Molecular Dynamics Simulation; Chemical Library; Functionally Selective Ligand; Polypharmacology; Dimerization; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biotechnology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a large superfamily of membrane proteins with key roles in cellular signaling. Upon activation by a ligand, GPCRs transduce signals from the extracellular to the intracellular environment. LÄS MER

  4. 9. First-Principles Studies of Materials Properties : Pressure-Induced Phase Transitions & Functional Materials

    Författare :Thanayut Kaewmaraya; Rajeev Ahuja; Scheicher Ralph; Naurang Saini; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Density functional theory; Pressure-induced phase transitions; Ab-initio molecular dynamic; hybrid functional; Ab-initio random structure searching; Phase change material; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the first-principles studies of materials properties within the framework of the density functional theory (DFT). The thesis constitutes three main parts, i. e., pressure-induced phase transitions in solids, data-storage and clean-energy materials. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Engineering Surfaces of Solid-State Nanopores for Biomolecule Sensing

    Författare :Shiyu Li; Shi-Li Zhang; Michael Mayer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; solid-state nanopores; surface engineering; DNA sensing; DNA polymerase; optical detection; lipid bilayer; hafnium oxide; electron beam induced deposition;

    Sammanfattning : Nanopores have emerged as a special class of single-molecule analytical tool that offers immense potential for sensing and characterizing biomolecules such as nucleic acids and proteins. As an alternative to biological nanopores, solid-state nanopores present remarkable versatility due to their wide-range tunability in pore geometry and dimension as well as their excellent mechanical robustness and stability.
