1. Optimal and Hereditarily Optimal Realizations of Metric Spaces
Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis, consisting of an introduction, four papers, and some supplementary results, studies the problem of finding an optimal realization of a given finite metric space: a weighted graph which preserves the metric's distances and has minimal total edge weight. This problem is known to be NP-hard, and solutions are not necessarily unique. LÄS MER
2. World oil supply in the 21st century : A bottom-up perspective
Sammanfattning : Oil-fuelled progress was a defining feature of the 20th century, and still today, oil remains the world’s largest primary energy source. Yet, oil is a non-renewable and carbon-intensive resource, either depletion or resulting carbon emissions will ultimately limit its use. LÄS MER
3. Regulation of insulin signaling and its developmental and functional roles on peptidergic neurons in the Drosophila central nervous system
Sammanfattning : In Drosophila, eight insulin-like peptides (DILP1-8) are produced and secreted in different locations. They regulate many aspects of development and physiology, such as organism growth, metabolic homeostasis, reproduction, stress resistance and life span. LÄS MER
4. Organic Bioelectronics for Neurotransmitter Release at the Speed of Life
Sammanfattning : The signaling dynamics in neuronal networks includes processes ranging from lifelong neuromodulation to direct synaptic neurotransmission. In chemical synapses, the time delay it takes to pass a signal from one neuron to the next lasts for less than a millisecond. LÄS MER
