  2. 7. Small RNAs, Big Consequences : Post-transcriptional Regulation and Adaptive Immunity in Bacteria

    Author : Mirthe Hoekzema; Gerhart E. H. Wagner; Magnus Lundgren; Kai Papenfort; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; small RNA; sRNA; non-coding RNA; Hfq; gene regulation; post-transcriptional regulation; biofilm; OmrA; OmrB; toxin-antitoxin; TisB; IstR-1; Persisters; CRISPR-Cas; CRISPR-Cas adaptation reporter; Escherichia coli; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Biology with specialization in Microbiology;

    Abstract : It is nowadays widely accepted that non-coding RNAs play important roles in post-transcriptional regulation of genes in all kingdoms of life. In bacteria, the largest group of RNA regulators are the small RNAs (sRNAs). READ MORE

  3. 8. Small breast cancers : Diagnosis, prognostic factors and clinical outcome in a screening population

    Author : Lars-Gunnar Arnesson; Karl von Smitten; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Breast neoplasm; diagnostic; treatment; pathology; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Breast cancer ≤ 10 mm together with ductal in situ cancer of the breast (DCIS) today constitute more than 40% of screening detected breast malignancies. Prognostic factors, diagnosis and clinical outcome for invasive breast cancers ≤ 10 mm and local recurrence in DCIS were evaluated. READ MORE

  4. 9. New Constructions for Competitive and Minimal-Adaptive Group Testing

    Author : Muhammad Azam Sheikh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; strict group testing; disjoint pools; randomization; competitive group testing; minimal-adaptive group testing; exact bounds; competitive ratio;

    Abstract : Group testing (GT) was originally proposed during the World War II in an attempt to minimize the \emph{cost} and \emph{waiting time} in performing identical blood tests of the soldiers for a low-prevalence disease. Formally, the GT problem asks to find $d\ll n$ \emph{defective} elements out of $n$ elements by querying subsets (pools) for the presence of defectives. READ MORE

  5. 10. Teaching and learning mathematics with integrated small-group discussions. A learning study about scaling geometric figures

    Author : Jenny Svanteson Wester; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; variation theory; learning study; learning opportunities; small-group discussions; whole-class discussions; whole-class teaching; mathematics; scaling; illusion of linearity;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to contribute to a deeper understanding of the relationship between teaching and student learning in mathematics when small-group discussions are used in teaching. This thesis focuses on student learning of specific subject matter when small group discussions are used in whole-class teaching. READ MORE
