  1. 1. Beyond Users : Grounding Technology in Experience

    Author : Sara Ljungblad; Lars Erik Holmquist; Kristina Höök; William Gaver; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer and systems science; Data- och systemvetenskap; Man-Machine-Interaction MMI ; människa-maskin-interaktion mmi ;

    Abstract : This thesis goes beyond a user-centred design approach to explore potential future applications and modes of interaction. With several design cases, we investigate how early technology ideas can be matched with a specific practice to inspire novel design. READ MORE

  2. 2. Beyond impacts : Contextualizing strategic environmental assessment to foster the inclusion of multiple values in strategic planning

    Author : Juan Azcarate; Berit Balfors; Maria Rosario Partidario; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strategic environmental assessment; Context; Values; Strategic planning; Participation; Ecosystem services; Monitoring; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Abstract : Strategic environmental assessment (SEA) has the potential to improve strategic planning. However, meeting this expectation is a major challenge since SEA practice still constraints itself to assess the impacts of strategic planning initiatives. READ MORE

  3. 3. Beyond GWAS : Novel Methods and Resources for Genetic Epidemiology

    Author : Daniel Schmitz; Åsa Johansson; Tuuli Lappalainen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GWAS; NGS; long-read sequencing; mendelian randomization; WGS; CNVs;

    Abstract : Since the first human genome assembly’s release, our knowledge of the genetic architecture of complex traits and diseases has grown steadily. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) played a major role but are limited to common traits and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). READ MORE

  4. 4. Beyond treatment? : widening the approach to alcohol problems and solutions

    Author : Jan Blomqvist; Douglas Cameron; Stockholms universitet; []

  5. 5. Complex Trait Genetics : Beyond Additivity

    Author : Simon Forsberg; Örjan Carlborg; Julien Ayroles; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; genetic interactions; epistasis; additivity; GWAS; vGWAS; Genetic mapping; yeast; Arabidopsis Thaliana; dog; Genetik; Genetics;

    Abstract : The link between the genotype and the phenotype of an organism is immensely complex. Despite this it can, to a great extent, be captured using models that assume that gene variants combine their effects in an additive manner. This thesis explores aspects of genetics that cannot be fully captured using such additive models. READ MORE
