  2. 1. Regulatory tools for managing chemicals risk at the workplace

    Author : Qian Ding; Sven Ove Hansson; Maria Albin; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Occupational Diseases; Chemicals; Carcinogens; Risk Management; Regulatory Toxicology; Occupational Exposure Limits; Chemicals Legislations; Risk Assessment; Acceptable Risk;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on exacerbating chemicals risk in workplaces under the background of rapid industrialization in developing countries. The overall aim is to investigate the development of regulatory tools which aim at minimizing the health risks from chemical substances in the workplace. READ MORE

  4. 2. Controlled by Knowledge : A Study of two Clinical pathways in Mental Healthcare

    Author : Mona Jerndahl Fineide; Lena Gonäs; Helge Ramsdal; Eva Bejerot; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Organisation theory; scientific bureaucratic medicine; health policy; governance; New Public Management; regulatory tools; control; management; standardisation; rule production; instrumentation; clinical pathways; lean; work; professions; professionals; autonomy; discretion; power; knowledge; legitimacy; evidence based medicine; mental health care; hospital; child and youth psychiatry; psychiatrist; psychologist; jurisdiction; legitimacy; soft bureaucracy; hybridisation; Working Life Science; Arbetsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Standardisation of professional work is a major policy concern to ensure quality and efficiency of services and a number of hospitals are now focusing on the use of clinical pathways as an important tool to standardise their work. This study sheds light on the processes set in motion when notions of standardisation meet local practice. READ MORE

  5. 3. Exploring the Boundaries of Gene Regulatory Network Inference

    Author : Andreas Tjärnberg; Erik Sonnhammer; Richard Bonneau; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GRN; gene regulatory network; network inference; signal to noise ratio; model selection; variable selection; data properties; reverse engineering; ordinary differential equations; gene networks; linear regression; lasso; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

    Abstract : To understand how the components of a complex system like the biological cell interact and regulate each other, we need to collect data for how the components respond to system perturbations. Such data can then be used to solve the inverse problem of inferring a network that describes how the pieces influence each other. READ MORE

  6. 4. In silico modelling for refining gene regulatory network inference

    Author : Thomas Hillerton; Erik L. L. Sonnhammer; Richard Bonneau; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Gene regulatory networks; simulation; benchmarking; method development; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics;

    Abstract : Gene regulation is at the centre of all cellular functions, regulating the cell's healthy and pathological responses. The interconnected system of regulatory interactions is known as the gene regulatory network (GRN), where genes influence each other to maintain strict and robust control. READ MORE

  7. 5. Small non-coding RNA in early fly development : plasticity, interactions and improved bioinformatic tools

    Author : Lovisa Örkenby; Anita Öst; Rashmi Ramesh; Daniel Nätt; Nicola Iovino; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Drosophila; Maternal-to-zygotic transition; sncRNA; miRNA; piRNA; Embryogenesis; Zygotic gene activation;

    Abstract : At fertilization, the male and female pronuclei undergo a transformation from germline to pluripotency as they fuse, marking the beginning of Drosophila embryogenesis. As the parental contributions decrease, the zygote takes control of its genome in a process called the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT). READ MORE
