  1. 1. High-resolution Studies of mRNA Expression in Brain : A Search for Genes Differently Expressed in Schizophrenia

    Author : Anja Castensson; Elena Jazin; Terence Speed; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; mRNA; gene expression; real-time RT-PCR; schizophrenia; 5-HT serotonin receptor 2C; brain; psychiatric genetics; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : Gene expression differences between patients and controls can be used to find susceptibility genes and drug targets for a disease. High-resolution strategies are required because the differences between the investigated groups may be small and numerous factors may affect the mRNA quantity. READ MORE

  2. 2. Aposematism, Crypsis and Population Differentiation in the Strawberry Poison Frog

    Author : Andreas Rudh; Anna Qvarnström; Jacob Höglund; Michael Speed; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; co-evolution; population divergence; natural selection; sexual selection; warning colouration; Oophaga pumilio; Dendrobates pumilio; aggression; explorative behaviour; colour patterns; Biologi med inriktning mot zooekologi; Biology with specialization in Animal Ecology;

    Abstract : Evolutionary transitions between the two major predator avoidance strategies aposematism and crypsis are expected to be associated with changes in many important traits of animals. However, empirical studies on populations experiencing ongoing or recent transitions between these strategies are rare. READ MORE

  3. 3. Urban driving patterns - characterisation, variability and environmental implications

    Author : Eva Ericsson; Trafik och väg; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Samhällsvetenskaper; Social sciences; Teknik; Technological sciences; speed limit; intersection density; driver age; gender; car performance; GPS; traffic flow; street environment; fuel consumption; deceleration; speed; acceleration; power demand; gear changing; exhaust emission;

    Abstract : Driving patterns, i.e. the speed and acceleration profiles of vehicles affect exhaust emission and fuel consumption considerably. READ MORE

  4. 4. Mathematical Modelling of Light Scattering in Paper and Print

    Author : Per Edström; Mårten Gulliksson; Inge Söderkvist; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mathematical modeling; radiative transfer; solution method; numerical stability; speed; light scattering; light absorption; Kubelka-Munk; errors; reflectance calculations; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

    Abstract : A problem formulation and a solution method are outlined for the radiative transfer problem in vertically inhomogeneous scattering and absorbing media, using discrete ordinate model geometry. The treatment spans from the physical problem via a continuous formulation, a discretization and a numerical analysis, to an implementation with performance evaluation and application to real-world problems.

  5. 5. Driver Experience and Acceptance of Driver Support Systems - A Case of Speed Adaptation

    Author : Emeli Adell; Trafik och väg; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; speed support; ISA; driver support systems; Driver experiences; acceptance; UTAUT; ADAS; field trial;

    Abstract : Substantial research and development efforts are being made to add driver support systems to the arsenal of traffic safety measures. Obviously, the system cannot reduce fatalities and trauma until it is actually used. Hence, drivers’ experiences and acceptance of the system are of paramount importance. READ MORE
