2. 1. Fc receptors and immunoglobulins in polyarthritis : A matter of function, supply and demand?

   Author : Peter Matt; Ulla Lindqvist; Sandra Kleinau; Alf Kastbom; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Fc receptors (FcR) and immunoglobulins (Ig) play important roles in the defence against pathogens. However, altered interactions of these may promote chronic inflammation in rheumatic diseases. An excess of Igs forming immune complexes (IC) could lead to continuous FcR activation and spreading of autoimmune inflammation to other tissues. READ MORE

5. 3. On Generic Road Vehicle Motion Modelling and Control

   Author : Johan Andreasson; Annika Stensson Trigell; Matt Best; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Abstract : With the increased amount of on-board electric power driven by the ongoing hybridization, new ways to realize vehicles are likely to occur. This thesis outlines a future direction of vehicle motion control based on the assumptions that: 1) future vehicle development will face an increased amount of available actuators for vehicle propulsion and control that will open up for an increased variety of possible configurations, 2) the onboard computational power will continue to increase and allow higher demands on active safety and drivability that will require a tighter interaction between sensors and actuators, 3) the trend towards more individualized vehicles on common platforms with shorter time-to-market require design approaches that allow engineering knowledge to be transferred conveniently from one generation to the next.

6. 4. 100 million years of shark macroevolution : A morphometric dive into tooth shape diversity

   Author : Mohamad Bazzi; Per Ahlberg; Matt Friedman; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sharks; Macroevolution; Extinction recovery dynamics; Geometric Morphometrics; Morphospace-Disparity Framework; Teeth; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Organismal Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär organismbiologi;

   Abstract : Few vertebrate clades exhibit the evolutionary longevity and versatility of sharks, which constitute nearly half of all current chondrichthyan biodiversity and represent an ecological diversity of mid-to-apex trophic-level predators in both marine and freshwater environments. The rich fossil record of shark teeth from Mesozoic and Cenozoic rocks also makes the group amenable to large-scale quantitative analyses. READ MORE

7. 5. Novel approaches to the environments and ecosystems of the fish-tetrapod transition

   Author : Hannah Byrne; Per Ahlberg; Grzegorz Niedzwiedzki; Henning Blom; Benjamin P. Kear; Matt Friedman; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fish-tetrapod transition; synchrotron scanning; tides; coprolites; Carboniferous;

   Abstract : The fish-tetrapod transition is one of the most important evolutionary events in Earth’s history, giving rise to terrestrial vertebrates around 390 million years ago. It set the stage for a series of evolutionary events that ultimately resulted in modern-day terrestrial vertebrates including ourselves. READ MORE
