1. S100A9 in inflammatory disease: a potential target for amelioration
Abstract : The quinoline-3-carboxamides (Q compounds) are a family of small molecules with immunomodulatory functions that have shown efficacy in various murine models of inflammatory diseases. One such compound has demonstrated antitumor effects in murine models. Q compounds bind to S100A9, thereby preventing its ligation to TLR4 and RAGE. READ MORE

2. Optical Analysis of biological media - continuous wave diffuse spectroscopy
Abstract : The main topic of this thesis is real-time quantification of relevant chromophores and light scattering elements in biological media. The presented methods and instrumentation are based on continuous wave (steady-state) optical measurements of (a) spatially-resolved diffuse reflectance from bulk media and (b) combined spatially-resolved and goniometric measurements of re-emitted light from thin samples.

3. On Nonlinear Acoustics in Contrast Echocardiography
Abstract : Ultrasound is one of the most commonly used noninvasive medical imaging techniques. Ultrasound contrast agents (UCA), consisting of encapsulated gas-filled microbubbles, have shown to increase the diagnostic precision in selected low echogenic patients. READ MORE

4. Hantaviruses : from interferons to development of an in vitro model
Abstract : Hantaviruses can cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS), two severe diseases that often are associated with a deadly outcome as there is no cure. The natural hosts of hantaviruses are rodents and insectivores, which are believed to harbor the virus asymptomatically. READ MORE

5. Human neural precursor cells in spinal cord repair
Abstract : Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) often results in substantial neural cell death, axonal degeneration and demyelination, accompanied by loss of sensory and motor functions. Cell therapy may have neuroprotective effects, substitute for lost neural cells, promote regeneration and enhance remyelination in the lesioned spinal cord. READ MORE
