  2. 1. The Macroinvertebrate Community in a Nature-like Fishway with Habitat Compensation Properties

    Author : Stina Gustafsson; Olle Calles; Martin Österling; Jostein Skurdal; John Brittain; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nature-like fishway; biodiversity; macroinvertebrates; functional feeding groups; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Nature-like fishways are often constructed to restore connectivity in streams exploited for hydropower. They also have the potential to compensate for important habitats that have been degraded or lost. READ MORE

  4. 2. Habitat compensation in nature-like fishways : Effects on benthos and fish

    Author : Stina Gustafsson; Olle Calles; Martin Österling; Jostein Skurdal; Paul Giller; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biocanal; biodiversity; brown trout; freshwater pearl mussel; functional feeding groups; habitat heterogeneity; large woody debris; macroinvertebrates; PIT-tag; salmonids; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : The construction of nature-like fishways has become an increasingly common measure to restore longitudinal connectivity in streams and rivers affected by hydroelectric development. These fishways also have the potential to function as habitat compensation measures when running waters have been degraded or lost. READ MORE

  5. 3. Translational Aspects of Blood-Brain Barrier Transport and Brain Distribution of Drugs in Health and Disease

    Author : Sofia Gustafsson; Margareta Hammarlund-Udenaes; Stina Syvänen; Irena Loryan; Danica Stanimirovic; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Blood-brain barrier; Neurovascular unit; Pharmacokinetics; Neurodegenerative disease; Drug transport; Brain tissue binding; Positron emission tomography; Brain regions; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : A high unmet medical need in the area of CNS diseases coincides with high failure rates in CNS drug development. Efficient treatment of CNS disease is constrained by limited entrance of drugs into the brain owing to the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which separates brain from blood. READ MORE
