1. Sex pheromone biosynthesis in moth pests : From gene discovery to biotechnological production
Abstract : Moths (Lepidoptera) are some of the most economically important pests in human agriculture. Conventional insecticides used for management promote insecticide resistance in addition to cause human- and environmental harm. This emphasises an inescapable need for sustainable alternatives and integrated practices. READ MORE

2. Optical Analysis of biological media - continuous wave diffuse spectroscopy
Abstract : The main topic of this thesis is real-time quantification of relevant chromophores and light scattering elements in biological media. The presented methods and instrumentation are based on continuous wave (steady-state) optical measurements of (a) spatially-resolved diffuse reflectance from bulk media and (b) combined spatially-resolved and goniometric measurements of re-emitted light from thin samples.

3. The influence of adhesion molecules on binding and protein organization in cell contacts
Abstract : Interactions between immune cells such as T cells and antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are integral for mounting an adaptive immune response. The interaction between the T cell receptor (TCR) and the antigen-presenting major histocompatibility complex (pMHC) on a contacting T cell and APC, is widely accepted to be the key interaction.

4. Tailings Dam Performance : Modeling and Safety Analysis of a Tailings dam
Abstract : Storage and management of mine waste are both needed in the mining industry. After mineral extraction of the ore, there are generally leftovers with insufficient economical value that need to be taken care of. The finest grained fractions are referred to as tailings. READ MORE

5. NMR studies of DNA structure and counterion behaviour
Abstract : DNA is a polymer of nucleotides, each nucleotide consisting of a negatively charged phosphate group, a ribose sugar unit, and a purine or pyrimidine base. The secondary structure of DNA is commonly a double-helix with Watson-Crick paired bases. Several secondary structures, all with these features, are observed for DNA. READ MORE
