1. Spatiotemporal characterization of the human proteome
Abstract : Characterizing the molecular components of the basic unit of life; the cell, is crucial for a complete understanding of human biology. The cell is divided into compartments to create a suitable environment for the resident proteins to fulfill their functions. READ MORE

2. Cell cycle regulation in cancer: A noncoding perspective
Abstract : The cell cycle progression is tightly regulated to ensure error-free cell replication. The complexity of the transcriptional machinery aids to function in a spatiotemporal pattern across different phases and genomic loci. READ MORE

3. Studies on Tissue Factor with Focus on Cell Signaling and Cancer
Abstract : This thesis have explored the functions of the protein Tissue Factor (TF), which together with its ligand coagulation factor VII/VIIa (FVII/FVIIa) forms a proteolytic complex that functions in initiation of blood coagulation and activation of cell signaling.In paper I, the mechanisms behind the observation that TF/FVIIa signaling protects cells from apoptosis were further investigated.

4. Diabetes in 3D : β-cell mass assessments in disease models & evaluation of SPECT based imaging
Abstract : Diabetes is a rapidly growing disease with 415 million affected adults worldwide. The pancreatic endocrine cells, most importantly the insulin producing β-cells, play an important role in regulating blood glucose homeostasis. READ MORE

5. Dynamics of Biomembranes and Rheological Properties of Living Cells
Abstract : An ingenious assembly of biomolecules and water constitute what we call biological tissue. The presence of water in this assembly is fundamental for the physiological processes and can make the difference between life and death. READ MORE
