  2. 16. On genes involved in common neurological disorders : focus on Parkinson's disease

    Author : Caroline Ran; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Parkinson’s disease and migraine are complex neurological disorders and it is likely that a combination of genetic risk factors are involved in the etiology of both these diseases. Papers in this thesis investigate candidate genes in the search of genetic risk factors contributing to disease. READ MORE

  4. 17. Regulations of neuronal plasticity by the Nogo system

    Author : Gabriella Smedfors; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Our brain has a lifelong capacity to create new memories, to learn and to adapt. This is due to the ability of neurons to modify their signaling depending on the situation to which the nervous system is exposed. The neurons of the CNS have despite this plasticity, a very limited ability to grow and recover if damaged. READ MORE

  5. 18. Genetic analysis and software development for studies on complex human traits

    Author : Lisette Graae; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Rapidly advancing genotyping and genome sequencing technologies have recently given us the opportunity to watch evolution at work. It turns out that the genome, like so many other workplaces, is rather messy. The sequences of no two humans are exactly alike, not even those of “identical” twins. READ MORE

  6. 19. Modelling the multifaceted physics of metallic dust and droplets in fusion plasmas

    Author : Ladislas Vignitchouk; Svetlana Ratynskaia; Richard Pitts; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Plasma-material interaction constitutes one of the major scientific and technological issues affecting the development of thermonuclear fusion power plants. In particular, the release of metallic dust and droplets from plasmafacing components is a crucial aspect of reactor operation. READ MORE

  7. 20. Deciphering the role of genetics and circadian rhythm in cluster headache

    Author : Carmen Fourier; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cluster headache (CH) is a complex neurovascular disorder with a distinct circadian attack pattern. Although many aspects of the disease’s pathophysiology remain to be elucidated, it is likely caused by a combination of different genetic and environmental risk factors. READ MORE
