11. Stem cell in-vitro strategies for the induction of sensory neurons for inner ear cell therapy
Sammanfattning : The cochlea, a part of the auditory system, is a complex structure consisting of several different types of cells including hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons. In mammals, the regenerative potential of hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons is lost soon after the birth and damage to any of these cells causes sensorineural hearing loss. LÄS MER
12. Informing Severe Accident Management Guidelines for a Pressurized Water Reactor with MELCOR Simulations
Sammanfattning : Severe accident management guidelines (SAMGs) play an important role in the hierarchical structure of the defense-in-depth (DiD) principle of reactor safety. Among different methods to verify and validate the effectiveness of SAMG on mitigating severe accident consequences, the approach of numerical simulations using best-estimate computer codes was extensively applied to evaluate the SAMG and SAM actions.

13. Serotonin in emotional memory processes : neuropharmacological studies with emphasis on depression
Sammanfattning : Cognitive dysfunctions are common in neuropsychiatric disorders including Major Depressive Disorder, but are difficult to normalize by antidepressant therapies and contribute to reduced functional improvement. Cognitive impairments include alterations of emotional memory processes that are early targeted by antidepressant therapies, including Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs). LÄS MER
14. Does IT count? : complexities between access to and use of information technologies among Uganda's farmers
Sammanfattning : Drawn from a year of ethnographic fieldwork among farmers in Uganda, this study engages with developing an understanding on how access to and use of media and information technologies are negotiated in their separate profiles. Oftentimes the two entities, access and use, are laminated into one statistical representation, depicting both terms as either use or access. LÄS MER
15. Novel Phenomena in Superconductors and Superfluids: Boundary States, Spiral Magnetic Fields, and Solitons
Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis presents a comprehensive study of superconducting and superfluid states in a variety of physical systems.The research is based on 12 papers that explore different phenomena in-depth.One of the significant contributions of the thesis is the discovery of boundary states in superconductors.
