1. Psychosocial factors in patients with lumbar disc herniation : enhancing postoperative outcome by the identifiction of predictive factors and optimised physiotherapy
Abstract : Psychosocial factors have been advanced as an explanation for the development of chronic disability in 20 to 30% of patients treated by lumbar disc surgery. Aims: The overall aim of this thesis was to study the role of psychosocial factors in patients undergoing first-time lumbar disc surgery in relation to the outcome of both surgery and subsequent physiotherapy.

2. Topographical Impact on Space Charge Injection, Accumulation and Breakdown in Polymeric HVDC Cable Interfaces
Abstract : Extruded HVDC cable systems feature a variety of interface types, for which physio-chemical properties will depend on the type of application. Such applications can be joints, terminations or the cable itself, all introducing different material combinations and manufacturing methods. READ MORE

3. Engineering 3D degradable pliable scaffolds for adipose tissue regeneration : Advancing cell-material interactions by understanding the influence from thermal, chemical, mechanical properties and scaffold design
Abstract : In soft tissue defects that arise due to trauma, tumor resections and complex burns, a significant loss in adipose tissue remains a considerable challenge due to the insufficient regenerative capacity of the tissue. This thesis focuses on assessing cell-material interactions between degradable 3D polymer scaffolds with different designs and adipose tissue-derived stem cells. READ MORE

4. Towards membrane engineering as a tool in cell factory design: A case study on acetic acid tolerance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Abstract : The sustainable production of fuels, chemicals, and materials using renewable resources is a necessity if we are to reduce our ecological footprint and the rate of climate change. Lignocellulosic biomass, the major constituent of plant cell walls, is a renewable raw material with great potential due to its high abundance. READ MORE

5. Structural and Functional Studies of De Novo Designed Peptides at Surfaces
Abstract : The work presented in this thesis deals with the structural and functional properties of peptides at surfaces. The interaction of peptides with surfaces is an ever so common occurrence in our every day life, from the bug squashed on the windshield of our car to the barnacle on our boat, and from the blood plasma used in the hospital to the proteins in our cells.
