1. Optical Mapping of Bacterial Plasmids
Abstract : Bacteria that have acquired resistance to antibiotics represent one of the largest threats to human health and modern health care. The genes encoding resistance are frequently spread via the transfer of plasmids, which are circular double stranded DNA molecules separate from the chromosomal DNA of the bacteria. READ MORE

3. Methods for barcode analysis in optical DNA mapping
Abstract : This thesis is composed of six papers, which all concern different methods and tools used for the analysis of barcodes in nanochannel-based Optical DNA Mapping (ODM). The first four papers consider densely-labeled barcodes while the last two consider sparsely-labeled barcodes. READ MORE

4. Competitive-Binding Based Optical DNA Mapping - From Bacterial Plasmids to the Human Genome
Abstract : Significant advances within the field of DNA sequencing have allowed us to study DNA at a level of detail that was previously impossible. However, dynamic genomic regions with a high degree of structural variations, while being linked to disease in humans and increased resistance to antibiotics, are still challenging to characterize.

5. Single DNA Molecule Analysis – New Tools for Medical Diagnosis
Abstract : The DNA molecule, the blueprint of life, contains an enormous amount of information. The information is coded by the combination of four bases; adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine, that, together with the sugar-phosphate backbones, make up the DNA double helix. READ MORE
