2. 1. Development and Application of Software Tools for Mass Spectrometry Imaging

   Author : Patrik Källback; Per E. Andrén; Per Svenningsson; Anna Nilsson; Benjamin Bowen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mass spectrometry imaging; MALDI; DESI; msIQuant; quantitation; neurotransmitters; drugs; derivatization; brain; compression; data entropy reduction;

   Abstract : Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) has been extensively used to produce qualitative maps of distributions of proteins, peptides, lipids, neurotransmitters, small molecule pharmaceuticals and their metabolites directly in biological tissue sections. Moreover, during the last 10 years, there has been growing demand to quantify target compounds in tissue sections of various organs. READ MORE

4. 2. From Sequence to Structure : Using predicted residue contacts to facilitate template-free protein structure prediction

   Author : Mirco Michel; Arne Elofsson; Erik Lindahl; Johannes Söding; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein bioinformatics; protein structure prediction; contact prediction; machine learning; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

   Abstract : Despite the fundamental role of experimental protein structure determination, computational methods are of essential importance to bridge the ever growing gap between available protein sequence and structure data. Common structure prediction methods rely on experimental data, which is not available for about half of the known protein families. READ MORE

5. 3. Child Marriage, Human Development and Welfare : Using Public Spending, Taxation and Conditional Cash Transfers as Policy Instruments

   Author : Yeasmin Sayeed; Lars Hultkrantz; Jörgen Levin; Jesper Stage; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; HDs; Growth; MAMS; VAT Reform; Equity; Welfare; Secondary Stipend; Education; Age at Marriage; Multiregional Social Accounting Matrix; Cross-Entropy Estimation; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

   Abstract : The theme of this thesis is to analyze the impact of policy interventions such as financing human development (HD), tax reform and conditional cash transfer programmes, under the framework of growth and sustainable development. These policy instruments are evaluated through the application of both partial and general equilibrium models, and the last paper concentrates on developing regional social accounting matrices (SAMs) as a core database for spatial general equilibrium modelling.

6. 4. Hips don't lie : the use of benchmarking and register data to assess the performance of orthopaedic care

   Author : Fanny Goude; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Background: Today’s healthcare systems face challenges involving rising need and demand for healthcare as well as concerns about cost containment, misuse of medical services and unwarranted variations in medical practices. Given the stretched budgets for healthcare, there is a need to improve healthcare performance and to make competent use of limited resources. READ MORE

7. 5. Reaction kinetics of NH3-SCR over Cu-CHA from first principles

   Author : Yingxin Feng; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; density functional theory; ammonia assisted selective catalytic reduction; Cu-CHA; microkinetic modeling; Catalysis;

   Abstract : Ammonia assisted selective catalytic reduction (NH3-SCR) is a leading technology that is used for NOx reduction to N2 and H2O in oxygen excess. Thanks to its high activity, high selectivity, and durability, Cu-CHA is commercialized as an NH3-SCR catalyst. READ MORE
