    Author : Maria Göransdotter; Johan Redström; Kjetil Fallan; Molly Wright Steenson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; design; design research; design theory; design history; history of design; industrial design; participatory design; co-design; user-centered design; Scandinavian design; Swedish design; history of ideas; design; designforskning; designteori; designhistoria; industridesign; deltagande design; samskapande; användarcentrerad design; skandinavisk design; svensk design; folkhemmet; idéhistoria; design; design; industrial design; industridesign; idé- och lärdomshistoria; History Of Sciences and Ideas; History; historia;

    Abstract : Design practices are to a large degree conceptually and methodologically based in ways of designing rooted in the 20th century. Some of the challenges that arise in contemporary design stem from an unawareness of design’s historicity, and the discrepancies between what design methods and concepts once were made to handle, and what we presently try to apply them to.

  5. 3. Development of Gene Therapy for Hematopoietic Stem Cells using Lentiviral Vectors

    Author : Niels-Bjarne Woods; Andreas Ooka; Stefan Karlsson; Avdelningen för molekylärmedicin och genterapi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; embryonic stem cell; Hematopoietic stem cell; lentiviral vector; transduction efficiency; transgene expression; multiple vector copy integration; insertional mutagenesis; NOD SCID mouse; cytogenetics; Genetics; extracellulära vätskor; extracellular fluids; cytogenetik; Genetik; Haematology; Hematologi; Lentivirus : genetics; Human; Genetic Vectors; Hematopoietic Stem Cells : metabolism; Animal; Gene Therapy; Leukemia : therapy; Leukemia : metabolism;

    Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells are an ideal target for genetic manipulation for the purpose of curing hematological disorders as they have the ability to develop into all blood lineages and to self-renew. In this study we demonstrate that lentiviral vectors, based on HIV-1, can efficiently transfer genes into human hematopoietic progenitor and stem cells as assessed following stem cell transplantation in immune compromised mice.

  6. 4. On customization of orthopedic implants - from design and additive manufacturing to implementation

    Author : Marie Cronskär; Mats Tinnsten; Mikael Bäckström; Lars-Erik Rännar; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Patient-specific implants; Additive manufacturing; Electron beam melting; Multibody musculoskeletal analysis; Orthopedic implants; Clavicle; Finite element analysis; Computer aided design; Osteosynthesis plate; Hip stem implants;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis is devoted to studying the possibilities of using additive manufacturing (AM) and design based on computed tomography (CT), for the production of patient-specific implants within orthopedic surgery, initially in a broad perspective and, in the second part of the thesis focusing on customized clavicle osteosynthesis plates. The main AM method used in the studies is the Electron Beam Melting (EBM) technology. READ MORE

  7. 5. Managing change in performance measures within a manufacturing context

    Author : Mohammed Salloum; Magnus Wiktorsson; Mike Bourne; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : performance measures; Innovation and Design; innovation och design;

    Abstract : Even though the literature available within the field of performance measurement and management (PMM) is extensive, a gap exists regarding how change is managed in performance measures (PM).  This gap is corroborated by the empirical data underlining that only a few organisations have mechanisms in place for managing PM change.
