  1. 1. Becoming Wilderness : a topological study of Tarangire, Northern Tanzania 1890-2004

    Author : Camilla Årlin; Mats Widgren; Dan Brockington; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Tanzania; Tarangire National Park; game reserve; topology; political ecology; landscape; tsetse; Mbugwe; Gorowa; conservation; man-animal networks; Human geography; Kulturgeografi; kulturgeografi; Human Geography;

    Abstract : Based on field and archival research, Becoming Wilderness analyses the fluid constructs of game preservation and their affect within networks and landscapes to the west of Tarangire National Park, Northern Tanzania from the late 19th Century until the present. The initial query of this thesis is how and why Tarangire comes to be separated as different from its surrounding (on the map and within policy) and what this has entailed for what is ‘within’ and ‘outside’.

  2. 2. Algorithmic discovery, development and personalized selection of higher-order drug cocktails : A label-free live-cell imaging & secretomics approach

    Author : Efthymia Chantzi; Mats G Gustafsson; Ulf Hammerling; Andreas Bender; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; drug combination discovery and development; personalized pharmacotherapy; higher-order drug combination analysis; quantitative label-free live-cell imaging; secretomics; cell-cell communication; deep learning; convolutional neural networks; data mining; MapReduce; resampling; generalized highest single agent; COMBImageDL; COMBSecretomics; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik; Pharmacology; Farmakologi; Engineering Science; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : An upward trend in clinical pharmacology is the use of multiple drugs to combat complex and co-occurring diseases due to better efficacy, decreased toxicity and reduced risk of evolving resistance. Despite high late-stage attrition rates and the need for multi drug treatments, most drug discovery and development efforts are still mainly focused on new one-size-fits-all monotherapies. READ MORE

  3. 3. Geomorphology and environmental dynamics in Save River delta, Mozambique : A cross-timescale perspective

    Author : Elidio Massuanganhe; Lars-Ove Westerberg; Robert Marchant; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Save River delta; deltaic wetlands; biogeomorphology; climate change; landscape evolution; coastal management; socio-ecological systems; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

    Abstract : Long-term perspectives on the evolution of river deltas have provided useful knowledge capable of responding to pending questions related to the ongoing climate and environmental changes. Increasing utilization pressure on delta environments has necessitated increased attention to protect the socio-economic and ecological values. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modeling and Control of EGR on Marine Two-Stroke Diesel Engines

    Author : Xavier Llamas; Lars Eriksson; Gerasimos Theotokatos; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling for control; Ship Propulsion; Dynamic Simulation; Exhaust Gas Recirculation; Mean Value Engine Model; Parameterization; Compressor; Model Extrapolation;

    Abstract : The international marine shipping industry is responsible for the transport of around 90% of the total world trade. Low-speed two-stroke diesel engines usually propel the largest trading ships. This engine type choice is mainly motivated by its high fuel efficiency and the capacity to burn cheap low-quality fuels.

  5. 5. Gendered Migration Patterns within a Sex Segregated Labor Market

    Author : Maria Brandén; Gunnar Andersson; Elizabeth Thomson; Hill Kulu; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; family migration; gender; tied moving; regional mobility; earnings; occupation; sex segregation; co-residence; migration distance; education; sociologisk demografi; Sociological Demography;

    Abstract : When a couple moves, the woman is often placed at a disadvantage. Moves are more often motivated by men’s career advancement opportunities, and men tend to gain more economically from moving. In this thesis, these patterns are examined with an eye on the role of sex segregation on the labor market. READ MORE
