  4. 2. Metabolic engineering strategies to increase n-butanol production from cyanobacteria

    Author : Josefine Anfelt; Elton P. Hudson; Mathias Uhlén; Patrik R. Jones; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cyanobacteria; metabolic engineering; biofuels; butanol; synthetic scaffold; CRISPRi; solvent tolerance; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : The development of sustainable replacements for fossil fuels has been spurred by concerns over global warming effects. Biofuels are typically produced through fermentation of edible crops, or forest or agricultural residues requiring cost-intensive pretreatment. READ MORE

  5. 3. Exploring the Biopsychosocial Model in Irritable Bowel Syndrome : with emphasis on stress, comorbidities and fatigue

    Author : Anna-Karin Norlin; Susanna Walter; Åshild Olsen Faresjö; Magnus Falk; Michael P. Jones; Trygve Hausken; Linköpings universitet; []

    Abstract : BackgroundIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common, chronic, relapsing, and sometimes disabling, symptombased disorder of gut brain interactions. It has got a female predominance and occurs in all ages, with a slight decrease among elderly. READ MORE

  6. 4. Evolution of the subcortical circuits controlling goal-directed behaviour

    Author : Marcus Stephenson-Jones; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of the work presented in this thesis was to reconstruct the minimal neural hardware that vertebrates use for goal-directed behaviour. By studying lamprey, one of the phylogenetically oldest vertebrates, we were able to identify the neural circuitry that has been conserved since jawed and jawless vertebrates diverged over 560 million years ago.
