1. Characterization of the BOLD signal in functional MRI
Abstract : In the last two decades, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has become an important and widely used imaging technique for functional brain mapping. However, blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) technique is quite insensitive and task invoked BOLD signal change at 3T is typically in the order of a few percent. READ MORE

2. Collective behavior of disordered magnetic systems
Abstract : Magnetic properties of disordered and frustrated magnets have been experimentally investigated. The magnetic systems in focus in this work are spin-glasses and frozen ferrofluids (suspensions of nano-sized magnetic particles). READ MORE

3. Food webs and the distribution of body sizes
Abstract : Many ecologically relevant life-history traits of organisms, (such as generation time and ingestion rate) are significantly correlated to body size. Since these individual and species characteristics can affect the interactions between the species in a community, it is possible that the distribution of body sizes (in communities) can affect different properties of foodwebs as well.

4. Two Problems in non-linear PDE’s with Phase Transitions
Abstract : This thesis is in the field of non-linear partial differential equations (PDE), focusing on problems which show some type of phase-transition. A single phase Hele-Shaw flow models a Newtoninan fluid which is being injected in the space between two narrowly separated parallel planes. READ MORE

5. The decline of great Arctic charr in Lake Vättern : empirical and theoretical analyses of suggested causes
Abstract : Human activity is affecting species and ecosystems all over the world. In aquatic systems negative trends can be seen for many fish stocks and potential consequences of this, for ecosystem structure and functions, are of particular concern. READ MORE
