  2. 1. Modulation of cellular mechanisms in a spinal locomotor network

    Author : Jesper Tegnér; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Neuronal Network; Calcium Channels; Calcium-DependentPotassium Channels; Neuronal Oscillator; Neuromodulation; GABAg receptors; Lamprey; Locomotion; Spinal Cord; Computer Simulation;

    Abstract : Neuronal networks generate behaviour. Thus, to understand behaviour requires information on how neuronal networks work in terms of their cellular components. The overall aim of this work has been to link processes occurring at an ionic level to the operation of a neural network specialized for undulatory locomotion. READ MORE

  4. 2. Neural Mechanisms Determining Visuospatial Working Memory Tasks : Biophysical Modeling, Functional MRI and EEG

    Author : Fredrik Edin; Jesper Tegnér; Klaas Stephan; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : Visuospatial working memory (vsWM) is the ability to temporarily retain goal-relevant visuospatial information in memory. It is a key cognitive function related to general intelligence, and it improves throughout childhood and through WM training. READ MORE

  5. 3. Simplicity within Complexity : Understanding dynamics of cellular networks by model reduction

    Author : Olivia Eriksson; Jesper Tegnér; Arne Elofsson; Yishao Zhou; Stefan Bornholdt; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; model reduction; cellular networks; dynamical modules; delayed piecewise linear; systems biology; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Cellular networks composed of interactions between genes, proteins and metabolites, determines the behavioural repertoire of the cell. Recent developments in high-throughput experimental techniques and computational methods allow static descriptions of these networks on a genome scale. READ MORE

  6. 4. Gene networks from high-throughput data : Reverse engineering and analysis

    Author : Mika Gustafsson; Michael Hörnquist; Jesper Tegnér; Reinhard Guthke; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Experimental innovations starting in the 1990’s leading to the advent of high-throughput experiments in cellular biology have made it possible to measure thousands of genes simultaneously at a modest cost. This enables the discovery of new unexpected relationships between genes in addition to the possibility of falsify existing. READ MORE

  7. 5. Gene Expression Profiling of Human Atherosclerosis

    Author : Sara Hägg; Johan Björkegren; Jesper Tegnér; Josefin Skogsberg; Olle Melander; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Atherosclerosis is a progressive inflammatory disease that causes lipid accumulation in the arterial wall, leading to the formation of plaques. The clinical manifestations of plaque rupture—stroke and myocardial infarction—are increasing worldwide and pose an enormous economic burden for society. READ MORE
