  2. 11. Density Functional Theory Studies of Small Supported Gold Clusters and Related Questions : What a Difference an Atom Makes

    Author : Martin Amft; Natalia Skorodumova; Olle Eriksson; Hannu Häkkinen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Gold clusters; CO oxidation; graphene; spin-orbit coupling; van der Waals interactions; thermally excited vibrations; Condensed matter physics; Kondenserade materiens fysik; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : During the last decades the specific manipulation of matter on the (sub-) nanometer scale, also known as nanoscience, became possible by technologies such as the scanning tunneling microscope. Nanocatalysts, i.e. catalytic active structures of up to a few nanometers in size, belong to this rather new class of materials. READ MORE

  4. 12. On the role of transversus abdominis in trunk motor control

    Author : Martin Eriksson Crommert; Peter Engfeldt; Alf Thorstensson; Maria Ekblom; Birgitta Öberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : transversus abdominis; trunk muscles; EMG; intramuscular; IAP; motor control; postural control; spine stability; postural demand; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicin; Medicine;

    Abstract : All trunk muscles are important contributors to spine stability. However, the deepest abdominal muscle, transversus abdominis (TrA), with its characteristically horizontal fibre orientation seems to serve a unique function in trunk motor control. READ MORE

  5. 13. Neuroimaging Consciousness: What happens in the brain when we become aware of what we percieve?

    Author : Johan Eriksson; Lars Nyberg; Martin Ingvar; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

    Abstract : Although consciousness has been studied since the beginning of the history of psychology, how the brain implements consciousness is seen as one of the last great mysteries. This thesis investigates neural correlates of consciousness by measuring brain activity while specific contents of consciousness are defined and maintained. READ MORE

  6. 14. Space in the Space : Designing Sound Environments for the Shared Indoor Workspace

    Author : Martin Ljungdahl Eriksson; Lena Pareto; Davide Rocchesso; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Sound Environment Design; 4E Cognition; Research through Design; Design program; Sound Users; Ljudmiljö; utformning; arbetsplats; medarbetare; Work Integrated Learning; Arbetsintegrerat lärande;

    Abstract : The sound environment in shared indoor workspaces emerges through the interplay of physical layout, materials, technology, and social dynamics. These spaces are designed with specific purposes in mind, taking acoustics into account during construction. READ MORE

  7. 15. Insulin-antagonistic neurohormonal pathways in the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes

    Author : Martin Lundqvist; Jan W Eriksson; Niclas Abrahamsson; André van Beek; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glucagon; cortisol; ACTH; growth hormone; counter-regulation; clamp; hypoglycemia; hyperglycemia; obesity; type 2 diabetes; inflammation;

    Abstract : According to the current paradigm, the development of type 2 diabetes is driven by insulin resistance and the gradual failure of beta cells to compensate for this by secreting adequate amounts of insulin. Obesity is an important risk factor for type 2 diabetes and is considered to influence disease development primarily by induction of insulin resistance, via mechanisms that have not been fully elucidated.
