2. 11. Indirect Exploitation of Intellectual Property Rights By Corporations and Investors: IP Privateering & Modern Letters of Marque & Reprisal

   Author : Thomas Ewing; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; equity; non-practicing entity NPE ; innovation system; unclean hands; indirect exploitation; Intellectual property IP ; patent troll; patent misuse; privateer; intellectual property right IPR ; patent; operating company; tortious interference; corporate formalism; antitrust; investor; competition;

   Abstract : Competitive pressures and rent-seeking behaviors have motivated companies and investors to develop indirect techniques for beneficially exploiting third-party intellectual property rights (IPRs) that qualitatively depart from the slate of direct exploitation tools whose usage has been honed during the past 30 years of the pro-patent era. Companies have increasingly realized that they do not need to create IPRs themselves to exploit them beneficially, which has been the conventional usage pattern. READ MORE

4. 12. Seeing the invisible: Evolution of wing interference patterns in Hymenoptera, and their application in taxonomy

   Author : Ekaterina Shevtsova; Biologiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chalcidoidea; parasitic wasps; structural colors; visual signaling; cryptic species; sexual dimorphism; wing membrane thickness; wing micro-morphology; wing cuticle ultrastructure;

   Abstract : The remarkably thin transparent wing membranes in tiny wasps may appear to have a simple structural design, but hide a largely unexplored complex of micro-morphological features that serve aerodynamics and may also function in visual signaling. I found that when such small transparent wings are viewed against a dark background they display vivid structural color patterns due to thin film interference, and named them Wing Interference Patterns (WIPs).

5. 13. Innate Immune Proteins in a Crustacean Pacifastacus leniusculus

   Author : Chenglin Wu; Irene Söderhäll; petr Kopácek; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 2-DE; hematopoiesis; marker protein; melaniztion inhibiting protein; proPO-system; pattern recognition protein; PGN; ficolin-like protein; Immunology; Immunologi; Biology with specialization in Comparative Physiology; Biologi med inriktning mot jämförande fysiologi;

   Abstract : Hemocytes (blood cells) are important in the immune defense against pathogens in invertebrates. In crusteacean, the hemocytes and plasma components mount a strong innate immune response against different pathogens including bacteria and virus. READ MORE

6. 14. Strategies of gene and immune therapy for tumors and viral diseases

   Author : Herman José Arteaga; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Intracellular cytokines; DNA vaccine-GM-CSF; HIV- 1; RNA interference;

   Abstract : In the treatment of tumors and viral diseases such as HIV-1 infection, immunotherapeutic strategies do not seem to have enough capacity to eradicate an already established disease. However, these strategies could play a unique role as adjuvant treatments of therapies that eliminate the main tumor or viral load in order to avoid the relapse of the disease. READ MORE

7. 15. Imaging brain functions during neuropsychological testing

   Author : Per Hamid Ghatan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Keywords: Positron Emission Tomography; Cognition; Alcohol; Nicotine; Brain injury; Interference;

   Abstract : This thesis has dealt with the development of tools for assessing cognitive functions(attention and working memory) using functional imaging and the evaluation of the modulatory effects of performance, nicotine, alcohol, brain injury and auditory interference. Two cognitive tasks commonly used in the assessment of patients with brain injury, the externally-generated Perceptual Maze Test (PMT) and an internally-generated arithmetical task, Serial-7, were used as activation paradigms.
