  2. 16. Radiological Studies on Hippocampal Development : Morphological Variants and their Relationship to Epilepsy

    Author : Dragan Bajic; Raili Raininko; Kai Ericson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MRI; Brain development; Hippocampus; Epilepsy; Radiology; Radiologi; Radiologi; Radiology;

    Abstract : During fetal development, the hippocampal structures are folded forming the hippocampal sulcus which penetrates into the temporal lobe and then the entity rotates.  During this process, the hippocampal sulcus will be closed and the inverted hippocampus takes a rounded form.

  4. 17. The functional organisation of basal ganglia inputs

    Author : Yvonne Johansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The basal ganglia allow organisms to adjust their behaviour according to changes in their internal state or their environment. One essential prerequisite for the selection and execution of appropriate movements is the convergence of inputs from various sources, conveying sensory information, motor commands, reward value, and more.

  5. 18. Cortical plasticity in response to median nerve trauma

    Author : Lotta Fornander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Median nerve injuries in adults, repaired with nerve suture, lead to incomplete functional recovery despite improved surgical technique. This results in a reduction in quality of life, poorer working ability and a considerable expense for society. Misrouting of axons at the suture site connects regenerating axons to the wrong distal end organs. READ MORE

  6. 19. Mammalian sperm flagella and cilia

    Author : Jikui Guan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In mammals, both sperm flagella and cilia are axoneme-containing organelles. The sperm flagella are major parts of the spermatozoa that are male gametes produced in the testis from progenitor spermatogonia through a process called spermatogenesis. READ MORE

  7. 20. Genetic studies of congenital upper limb anomalies

    Author : Tobias Laurell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The overall aim of the work reported in this thesis is to improve epidemiological and genetic knowledge of congenital upper limb anomalies (CULA). To accomplish the specific aims of each paper several different methods and approaches have been used such as register studies, array comparative genome hybridization, Sanger sequencing, exome sequencing and functional studies using Lacz enhancer assay, Zebrafish morpholinos and computational transcription factor binding site prediction.
