1. Genome wide methylation analysis and obesity related traits
Abstract : The most studied form of epigenetics is DNA methylation and several studies have investigated the link between the methylome and body weight. In paper I we analyzed the methylation profile of whole blood in 46 subjects measured with Illumina 27K chip. We provide evidence that obesity influences age driven epigenetic changes. READ MORE

3. Applying Microwave Technology in Short Range Radio Communication and Sensing Systems
Abstract : Microwave technology continues to reach new areas and applications. Microwavebased sensors create the possibility to sense objects in remote and hostile envi-ronments, while miniaturization makes the merge of radios, sensors, and com-puting into new small devices possible. READ MORE

4. Borehole Thermal Energy Storage Systems for Storage of Industrial Excess Heat : Performance Evaluation and Modelling
Abstract : Improving industrial energy efficiency is considered an important factor in reducing carbon dioxide emissions and counteract climate change. For many industrial companies in cold climates, heat generated at the site in summer will not be needed to fulfil the site heat demand during this time, and is thus removed to the outdoor air.

5. Breeding System Evolution and Pollination Success in the Wind-Pollinated Herb Plantago maritima
Abstract : In this thesis, I examined variation in sex expression and mating patterns in the sexually polymorphic, wind-pollinated herb Plantago maritima. With a combination of field studies, greenhouse experiments, and genetic analyses, I (a) examined factors influencing sex ratio variation in gynodioecious plants (in which hermaphrodites and females coexist), (b) discovered variation in breeding system, (c) investigated density-dependence of seed production, and (d) documented genetic variation within and among populations close to the northern range margin in Europe.
