  2. 1. Exotic Decays of Vector-Like Quarks and Development of a Test Procedure for the ITk Strip Module at the ATLAS Detector for the HL-LHC

    Author : Thomas Mathisen; Elin Bergeås Kuutmann; Venugopal Ellajosyula; Richard Brenner; Freya Blekman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Standard Model; BSM; Composite Higgs; Fine-tuning; Naturalness; Vector-Like Quarks; HL-LHC; Fysik med inriktning mot elementarpartikelfysik; Physics with specialization in Elementary Particle Physics;

    Abstract : The naturalness problem of the Standard Model (SM) challenges our understanding of the origin of mass. Several theories have been proposed to tackle the problem, one of them is the Composite Higgs Model (CHM) where the Higgs boson of the SM is not an elementary scalar but instead a composite object bound at a confinement scale of a TeV.

  4. 2. Deciphering and fine-tuning of myeloid cells in CNS demyelinating conditions

    Author : Keying Zhu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Demyelination in the central nervous system (CNS) is a characteristic of various neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica (NMO), subacute combined degeneration (SCD), tabes dorsalis (syphilitic myelopathy), and more. Although the causes vary, CNS demyelination is often associated with a significant buildup of inflammatory activated myeloid cells, mainly consisting of CNS resident microglia and infiltrating monocyte-derived macrophages.

  5. 3. Fine-tuning of the catalytic activity and selectivity of palladium pincer complexes

    Author : Juhanes Aydin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis is focused on optimization of the catalytic properties of so-called pincer complexes. This work involved synthesis of a large variety of palladium pincer complexes, which were applied in various organic transformations. READ MORE

  6. 4. Selection and design in antibody phage display

    Author : Jonas Persson; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; specificity fine-tuning.; phage display; MUC1; automated selection; antigenicity; antibody; affinity maturation;

    Abstract : The immune system is an important part of the physiology of higher organisms. In the immune system antibodies play a key role in neutralizing and clearing potentially lethal threats from the environment. The importance of antibodies in the immune system has made them come to the attention as a tool in chemistry and medicine. READ MORE

  7. 5. Transcriptional regulation of miRNA-212 and miRNA-132 and their fine-tuning function of beta cell insulin secretion

    Author : Helena Malm; Diabetes - öcellsexocytos; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Type 2 diabetes is characterized by hyperglycemia due to insulin resistance in the target tissue and insufficient insulin secretion from the beta cells. Finding new mechanisms and pathways involved in the regulation of insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cells is of great importance. READ MORE
