2. 21. Locus specific DNA methylation in human immunological responses

   Author : Emma Ahlén Bergman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : All cells in the human body contains the same genome. Yet, there are hundreds of different cell types, with widely different phenotype, and function. The differential gene expression leading to this diversity is tightly regulated by epigenetics, i.e. READ MORE

   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Sport parachuting; skydiving; BASE jumping; injury; risk factors; epidemiology.; Surgery; Kirurgi; Surgery; kirurgi;

   Abstract : Background Sport parachuting is a dangerous recreational activity for which available literature appears unsatisfactory to form a basis for injury prevention. Aim Overall: Explore some risk factors in sport parachuting. Study I: Identify fatal incident and injury mechanisms for skydiving (sport parachuting from aircraft). READ MORE

5. 23. Pre-Crash and In-Crash Car Occupant Safety Assessment

   Author : Alexandros Leledakis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

   Abstract : Tens of millions are annually injured in Road Traffic Accidents (RTAs) worldwide, while the estimated number of RTA fatalities amounted to 1.35 million in 2016. In Europe, car occupants hold the largest share (48%) of fatalities among all road users. The high fatality and injury numbers motivate the work of enhancing road traffic safety. READ MORE

6. 24. Designing Monstrous Experiences Through Soma Design

   Author : Pavel Karpashevich; Kristina Höök; Pedro Sanches; Jordi Solsona; Mark Blythe; KTH; []

   Abstract : There is currently a wave of research and development of novel on-body technologies and materials, including shape-changing technologies to be worn on or used close to the body. Traditional interaction design methods and interface models are not always a good fit for designing meaningful interactions with these technologies as they primarily interact with our somatic selves—not our language-oriented, symbol-processing ways of being in the world.

7. 25. Human-Robot Collaboration for Kinesthetic Teaching

   Author : Julian Salt Ducaju; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Human-Robot Collaboration; Kinesthetic Teaching; Collaborative Robots;

   Abstract : Recent industrial interest in producing smaller volumes of products in shorter time frames, in contrast to mass production in previous decades, motivated the introduction of human–robot collaboration (HRC) in industrial settings, as an attempt to increase flexibility in manufacturing applications by incorporating human intelligence and dexterity to these processes. This thesis presents methods for improving the involvement of human operators in industrial settings where robots are present, with a particular focus on kinesthetic teaching, i. READ MORE
