6. Chemical vapour deposition of boron-carbon thin films from organoboron precursors
Sammanfattning : Boron-carbon (BxC) thin films enriched in 10B are potential neutron converting layers for 10Bbased solid-state neutron detectors given the good neutron absorption cross-section of 10B atoms in the thin film. Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) of such films faces the challenge that the maximum temperature tolerated by the aluminium substrate is 660 °C and low temperature CVD routes for BxC films are thus needed.

7. Preclinical and Clinical Development of the Novel Cyanoguanidine CHS 828 for Cancer Treatment
Sammanfattning : CHS 828 is a cyanoguanidine with anti-tumour properties which has shown promising effects in several preclinical models. This thesis describes both preclinical and clinical studies aiming to investigate disease specific activity, clinical tolerability and efficacy of CHS 828. LÄS MER
8. Immunogenetic variation along the latitudinal gradient in Scandinavian anuran species : Evolutionary processes, demography and infection
Sammanfattning : The evolutionary and demographic processes affecting how genetic variation is partitioned and distributed over large geographical scales is of fundamental importance for our understanding of how organisms may adapt to their environments. Northern peripheral populations generally have lower genetic variation and individuals in these populations may therefore face difficulties adapting to their local environment. LÄS MER
9. European Black Grouse : MHC Genetic Diversity and Population Structure
Sammanfattning : Black grouse Tetrao tetrix is a bird species composed of large, continuous as well as severely reduced and fragmented populations, making it an optimal species to investigate how genetic diversity is affected by habitat fragmentation. I have focused on genetic diversity in the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) to measure the ability of the black grouse to respond to environmental changes. LÄS MER
10. The response in native wildlife to an invading pathogen: Swedish amphibians and Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis
Sammanfattning : Emerging infectious diseases are causing mortality and declines in wildlife populations globally. My thesis aims to get as clear a picture as possible of the effect the invasive chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis has on the Swedish amphibian community. LÄS MER
