2. 1. Single Molecule Detection : Microfluidic Automation and Digital Quantification

   Author : Malte Kühnemund; Mats Nilsson; Ulf Landegren; Sten Linnarsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; single molecule; digital; rolling circle amplification; magnetic particle; padlock probe; microfluidics; resistive pulse sensing; lab on chip; mobile phone microscopy; enrichment; sequencing;

   Abstract : Much of recent progress in medical research and diagnostics has been enabled through the advances in molecular analysis technologies, which now permit the detection and analysis of single molecules with high sensitivity and specificity. Assay sensitivity is fundamentally limited by the efficiency of the detection method used for read-out. READ MORE

4. 2. Fall prevention exercise for older adults : self-management with support of digital technology

   Author : Beatrice Pettersson; Marlene Sandlund; Maria Wiklund; Rebecka Janols; Lillemor Lundin-Olsson; Anne Söderlund; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; eHealth; digital health; fall prevention; self-management; smartphone; digital technology; behavioural change support; Self-determination theory; Fallprevention; eHälsa; egenvård; digital teknik; beteendeförändring; självbestämmandeteorin; physiotherapy; fysioterapi; Public health; folkhälsa;

   Abstract : Background: Falls are a major public health issue, which can cause physical and psychological suffering for the individual as well as large costs for the society.

5. 3. Generalisation and reliability of deep learning for digital pathology in a clinical setting

   Author : Milda Pocevičiūtė; Claes Lundström; Stina Garvin; Gabriel Eilertsen; Nasir Rajpoot; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Deep learning; Digital pathology; Generalisation; Uncertainty estimation; Anomaly detection; Data distribution shift;

   Abstract : Deep learning (DL) is a subfield of artificial intelligence (AI) focused on developing algorithms that learn from data to perform some tasks that can aid humans in their daily life or work assignments. Research demonstrates the potential of DL in supporting pathologists with routine tasks like detecting breast cancer metastases and grading prostate cancer. READ MORE

6. 4. Towards Effortless Use of Information Technology in Home Healthcare with a Networked Digital Pen

   Author : Leili Lind; Hans Åhlfeldt; Daniel Karlsson; Bengt Fridlund; Sabine Koch; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Home care services; Hospital-based; Requirements; Pain Assessment; Visual Analogue Scale; Palliative care; Digital pens; Mobile phones; Internet; Medical informatics; Medicinsk informatik;

   Abstract : When care is moved from the hospital to the home the demands for high quality care still remain. For problems arising from the geographical separation of patients and professional caregivers, information and communication technology may offer important solutions. READ MORE

7. 5. The Relation Between Digital Technology and Values : Thinking Through Multiple Technologies

   Author : Leif Sundberg; Katarina L Gidlund; Aron Larsson; Jeremy Rose; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; digitalization; digital government; technique; technics; technology; philosophy of technology; paradigms; megamachines; polytechnics; monotechnics;

   Abstract : This thesis addresses two topics: technology and values. More specifically, the studied technology is an ensemble of digital technologies that is often referred to as “digitalization,” and the values are gathered from empirical material from the Swedish (digital) government. READ MORE
