   Abstract : This dissertation explores the division between biology and the social by means of Christian theology. The question is approached by reading and interacting critical theorist Judith Butler, psycholinguist Steven Pinker and theologian Colin Gunton.With Gunton the author argues that a relational, but ‘weak’, ontology is needed.

5. 3. Derivation, Characterization and Differentiation of Feeder-Free Human Embryonic Stem Cells

   Author : Narmin Bigdeli; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : Embryonic Stem Cells; Differentiation;

   Abstract : Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are pluripotent cells with self-renewal ability, derived from the inner cell mass of a human blastocyst. They have the remarkable potential to develop into different cell types and can thus be used to regenerate and restore damaged tissues and organs in the entire body. READ MORE

6. 4. Expression of Tissue Antigens in Human Pluripotent Stem Cells and Alterations During Differentiation : Potential application in regenerative medicine for treatment of terminal cell and organ failure

   Author : Karin Säljö; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pluripotent stem cells; Differentiation; Histo-blood group antigens; HLA; Tissue antigens; Sialyl-lactotetra; Cell surface antigens; Transplantation; Regenerative medicine;

   Abstract : The major limiting factor in the treatment of patients with end-stage organ failure is the insufficient number of human organs available for transplantation. An unlimited access to human cells, tissues and organs would also open up possibilities to treat several chronic diseases, such as diabetes, neurological and cardiovascular diseases, affecting millions of patients worldwide.

7. 5. A Middleware for Self-Managing Large-Scale Systems

   Author : Constantin Adam; Rolf Stadler; Arun Iyengar; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; autonomic computing; self-organization; decentralized control; web services; quality of service; Telecommunication; Telekommunikation;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates designs that enable individual components of a distributed system to work together and coordinate their actions towards a common goal. While the basic motivation for our research is to develop engineering principles for large-scale autonomous systems, we address the problem in the context of resource management in server clusters that provide web services.
