1. On-chip Ultrasonic Sample Preparation
Abstract : Acoustofluidics has become a well-established technology in the lab-on-a-chip scientific community. The technology involves primarily the manipulation of fluids and/or particles in microfluidic systems. READ MORE

2. Efficient strategies for collecting posture data using observation and direct measurement
Abstract : Relationships between occupational physical exposures and risks of contracting musculoskeletal disorders are still not well understood; exposure-response relationships are scarce in the musculoskeletal epidemiology literature, and many epidemiological studies, including intervention studies, fail to reach conclusive results. Insufficient exposure assessment has been pointed out as a possible explanation for this deficiency. READ MORE

3. Microfluidic bases sample preparation for blood stream infections
Abstract : Microfluidics promises to re-shape the current health-care system by transferring diagnostic tools from central laboratories to close vicinity of the patient (point-of-care). One of the most important operational steps in any diagnostic platform is sample preparation, which is the main subject in this thesis. READ MORE

4. Essays on Sample Surveys : Design and Estimation
Abstract : Sampling is a core stage in every survey. A sampling design carefully elaborated may imply not only a more accurate estimation of the parameters of interest, but also a reduction in the required sample size in a study. In this thesis we consider two particular but connected subjects. READ MORE

5. Comparative network analysis of human cancer: sparse graphical models with modular constraints and sample size correction
Abstract : In the study of transcriptional data for different groups (e.g. cancer types) it's reasonable to assume that some dependencies between genes on a transcriptional or genetic variants level are common across groups. Also, that this property is preserved locally, thus defining a modular structure in the model networks. READ MORE
