  2. 1. On the role of dendritic cells in HIV-1 infection

    Author : Anna Smed Sörensen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Dendritic cell; plasmacytoid; myeloid; HIV-1; cytokines; co-stimulation; transmission; antigen presentation; apoptotic cells; MuLV;

    Abstract : Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells with the capacity to initiate primary T cell responses against pathogens such as HIV-1. In addition, DCs express the receptors required for HIV-1 infection and as DCs are prevalent in the mucosa, they encounter the virus early after sexual transmission. READ MORE

  4. 2. Novel Diagnostics and Computational Methods of Neutron Fluxes in Boiling Water Reactors

    Author : John Loberg; Michael Österlund; Thomas Smed; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Void; BWR; neutron fluxes; channel bow; MCNP; 2D 3D; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The focus in this thesis is to improve knowledge of the BWR related uncertainties void, channel bow, and control rods. The presence of void determines the moderation of neutrons in BWRs. A high void fraction is less efficient in moderating neutrons than a low one. READ MORE

  5. 3. Evaluation of Resetting Performance in Cellular Manufacturing Systems - A Structured Approach to Sustainable Improvement of Resetting Performance
