  2. 1. Inter and intra-tumor models of somatic evolution in cancer

    Author : Mohammadreza Mohaghegh Neyshabouri; Jens Lagergren; Ben Raphael; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cancer progression models; MCMC; Tillämpad matematik och beräkningsmatematik; Applied and Computational Mathematics;

    Abstract : Cancer is a disease caused by the accumulation of somatic mutations in an evolutionary process. Mutations in so-called cancer driver genes provide the harboring cells with particular selective advantages and result in cancer progression. READ MORE

  4. 2. Inverse Modeling of Cloud – Aerosol Interactions

    Author : Daniel Partridge; Johan Ström; Kari Lehtinen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stratocumulus; marine; cloud; aerosol; interactions; MCMC; inverse modeling; droplet closure; global sensitivity; Atmosphere and hydrosphere sciences; Atmosfärs- och hydrosfärsvetenskap; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : The role of aerosols and clouds is one of the largest sources of uncertainty in understanding climate change. The primary scientific goal of this thesis is to improve the understanding of cloud-aerosol interactions by applying inverse modeling using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation. READ MORE
