  2. 16. Hepatitis B virus RNA in serum and liver tissue - quantification using digital PCR

    Author : Kasthuri Prakash; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hepatitis B virus; NTCP; HBV DNA; HBV RNA; subviral particles; integrations; droplet digital PCR;

    Abstract : Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a global health issue that is responsible for approximately 900,000 deaths each year, by inducing liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A few markers are used to classify HBV infection and monitor treatment efficacy, including HBV DNA, surface antigen (HBsAg) and e antigen (HBeAg) in serum as well as HBV DNA and RNA in liver tissue.

  4. 17. Application of Uncertainty Quantification Techniques to Studies of Wall-Bounded Turbulent Flows

    Author : Saleh Rezaeiravesh; Mattias Liefvendahl; Gunilla Kreiss; Pierre Sagaut; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Uncertainty Quantification; Large Eddy Simulation; Wall-Bounded Turbulent Flows; Wall Modeling; OpenFOAM; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : Wall-bounded turbulent flows occur in many engineering applications. The quantities of interest (QoIs) of these flows can be accurately obtained through experimental measurements and scale-resolving numerical approaches, such as large eddy simulation (LES). READ MORE

  5. 18. Nucleic acid analysis tools : Novel technologies and biomedical applications

    Author : Iván Hernández-Neuta; Mats Nilsson; Frank Bier; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nucleic acid analysis; padlock probes; selector probes; rolling circle amplification; microfluidics; single-molecule detection; digital quantification; fluorescence microscopy; mobile phone microscopy; molecular diagnostics; virology; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Nucleic acids are fundamental molecules of living organisms functioning essentially as the molecular information carriers of life. From how an organism is built to how it responds to external conditions, all of it, can be found in the form of nucleic acid sequences inside every single cell of every life form on earth. READ MORE

  6. 19. Advancing isothermal nucleic acid amplification tests : Towards democratization of diagnostics

    Author : Felix Neumann; Mats Nilsson; Paul Yager; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; molecular diagnostics; infectious diseases; point-of-care; digital quantification; fluorescence detection; rolling circle amplification; padlock probes; microfluidic enrichment; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Modern healthcare is the result of scientific advancement across disciplines and has enabled us to understand the rationale behind many diseases and how to treat or cure them; but still a myriad of unanswered questions remains. Especially infectious diseases play an important role in healthcare as they pose a constant threat for global health and well-being. READ MORE

  7. 20. Reliable Uncertainty Quantification in Statistical Learning

    Author : David Widmann; Fredrik Lindsten; Dave Zachariah; Erik Sjöblom; Dino Sejdinovic; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Reliability; Calibration; Uncertainty; Probabilistic Model; Prediction; Julia; Machine learning; Maskininlärning;

    Abstract : Mathematical models are powerful yet simplified abstractions used to study, explain, and predict the behavior of systems of interest. This thesis is concerned with their latter application as predictive models. READ MORE
