1. Domestication and early experiences in chickens : Behavior, stress and gene expression
Abstract : A number of animal species have undergone domestication, the process of becoming adapted to living in captivity and in proximity to humans. Common for these species is that they have all developed certain traits, including changes to coat color, body size and level of fearfulness. This has been termed the domestic phenotype. READ MORE

2. Glucose- and hypoxia-regulated insulin gene expression
Abstract : Although extensively studied, there are still many unanswered questions regarding the exact regulation of insulin gene expression. This is important to further investigate since it will hopefully help us understand the pathophysiology of some types of diabetes. READ MORE

3. Computational methods for analysis of spatial transcriptomics data : An exploration of the spatial gene expression landscape
Abstract : Transcriptomics techniques, whether in the form of bulk, single cell/nuclei, or spatial methods have fueled a substantial expansion of our knowledge about the biological systems within and around us. In addition, the rate of innovation has accelerated over the last decade, resulting in a multitude of technological advances and new methods for generation of transcriptomics data. READ MORE

4. Graph theory based approaches for gene prioritization in biological networks : Application to cancer gene detection in medulloblastoma
Abstract : Networks provide an intuitive and highly adaptable means to model relationships between objects. When translated to mathematical graphs, they become further amenable to a plethora of mathematical operations that allow a detailed study of the underlying relational data. READ MORE

5. Gene expression profiling in molecular studies of hormone actions
Abstract : Although the link between hormones and their physiological effects have been known for a long time, large pieces are still missing in our understanding of how these extracellular signals induce their effects at the cellular level. Signal transduction studies have gathered plenty of information about hormone signaling, but the complex network of interactions between different hormones, signaling pathways and cell types is still not completely understood.
