  1. 11. Improving the understanding of cloud radiative heating

    Author : Erik Johansson; Abhay Devasthale; Michael Tjernström; Annica M. L. Ekman; Robert Pincus; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; clouds; radiative effects; upper troposphere-lower stratosphere; atmospheric circulation; remote sensing; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

    Abstract : Clouds play an essential role in regulating Earth’s radiation budget by reflecting and absorbing energy at different spectra. As they interact with radiation, they can radiatively heat or cool the adjacent atmosphere and the surface. READ MORE

  2. 12. Genetic Variation and Expression of the IRF5 Gene in Autoimmune Diseases

    Author : Gudlaug Thora Kristjansdottir; Ann-Christine Syvänen; Lars Rönnblom; Gunnel Nordmark; Unnur Þorsteinsdóttir; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medical genetics; Medicinsk genetik; Genetics; genetik;

    Abstract : The interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF5) gene encodes a transcription factor that plays an important role in the innate as well as in the cell-mediated immune response. The IRF5 gene has received considerable attention since it was shown to be associated with two autoimmune diseases; systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). READ MORE

  3. 13. The Role of Histidine-rich Glycoprotein in Angiogenesis and Tumor Growth

    Author : Åsa Thulin; Anna-Karin Olsson; Pirjo Laakkonen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Histidine-rich glycoprotein; HRG HRGP HPRG; angiogenesis inhibitor; cancer; VEGF; platelets; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicin; Medicine;

    Abstract : Histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) is a heparin-binding plasma protein modulating immune, hemostatic and vascular functions. I have studied the antiangiogenic functions of HRG in vitro and in vivo in order to understand the molecular mechanisms of action of HRG as an angiogenesis inhibitor. READ MORE

  4. 14. Integrated Photonics for Quantum Optics

    Author : Samuel Gyger; Val Zwiller; Stephan Steinhauer; Ali W. Elshaari; Marijn A. M. Versteegh; Matthew D. Shaw; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; integrated photonics; single-photons; single-photon sources; quantum dots; single-photon detectors; SNSPD; integrerad fotonik; enstaka fotoner; enstaka fotonkällor; kvantprickar; enstaka fotondetektorer; SNSPDs; Optics and Photonics; Optik och fotonik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Quantum physics allows us a vision of Nature's forces that bind the world, all its seeds and sources. After decades of primarily scientific research, we've arrived at a stage in time where quantum technology can be applied to practical problems and add value outside the field. READ MORE

  5. 15. Genetic Sex Differences in Early Human Neuronal Development : An Investigation in Embryo Tissue and Embryonic Stem Cells

    Author : Philipp Pottmeier; Elena Jazin; Armin Raznahan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; sex chromosome; gametolog; x y homolog; male; female; sex differences; sex bias; embryonic stem cells; neurodevelopment; neuronal differentiation; neural stem cells; genetics; neurodevelopmental disorders; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Organismal Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär organismbiologi; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap; Medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Abstract : Sex differences in the human body affect many different organs and tissues, some of them have an effect on the human brain and its development. In the developing nervous system, sex differences can bias the number or functionality of neurons, glial cells or synapses. As a result, neural networks might develop with a sex-specific bias.
