  2. 1. Nerve growth factor in Alzheimer’s disease : biological effects and therapeutic potential

    Author : Helga Eyjolfsdottir; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder against which there is yet no disease modifying or curative treatment. Degeneration of cholinergic basal forebrain (CBF) neurons plays a role in the pathogenesis of AD and these neurons are highly dependent on nerve growth factor (NGF) for growth and survival.

    Abstract : A common cause of profound deafness is hair cell dysfunction in the cochlea. Cochlear implants (CI) bypass the hair cells via an electrode and stimulate the cochlear nerve directly. READ MORE

  5. 3. Powder Bed Fusion – Laser Beam of Mg alloy WE43 : Establishing the process – structure – properties relationship

    Author : Hanna Nilsson Åhman; Cecilia Persson; Francesco D'Elia; Pelle Mellin; Eduard Hryha; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Powder bed fusion - laser beam; additive manufacturing; magnesium; WE43; microstructure; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Abstract : Powder bed fusion - laser beam (PBF-LB) of Mg alloy WE43 (Mg-4wt%Y-3wt%RE-Zr) has great potential for the development of future biodegradable metal implants, as well as aerospace lightweight materials. However, the work published thus far has mainly focused on obtaining a fully dense material, and the understanding of the relationship among the PBF-LB process parameters, structure and the resulting material properties remains limited.
