Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen handlar om ett område i hjärnan som kallas amygdala. Detta området är ansvarigt för att lära sig vad man bör tycka om och vad man skall vara rädd för. I avhandlingen diskuteras hur det här området verkar fungera, och hur det arbetar tillsammans med andra områden för att göra sitt jobb. Dessa reaktioner är primitiva känslor; rädsla, lycka och så vidare. AvhaThe amygdala is a small subcortical structure that has long been implicated in the conditioning of fear and other emotions. It is heavily interconnected to a number of both cortical and subcortical structures and is thus well placed to integrate sensory inputs from multiple areas to produce emotional reactions directly as well as influence learning and attention systems. Data suggests that the amy

Studies of apparently homogeneous cell populations and single cells often give highly divergent results. Cells exhibit varying responsiveness to stimuli and gene expression and they are in many aspects stochastic and unpredictable. We have developed a method to measure gene expression quantitatively in individual cells with real-time RT-PCR. mRNA for hormones, ion channels and enzymes in pancreat

Detta arbete undersöker processrättens roll på det migrationsrättsliga området, så som den kommer till uttryck genom ett antal migrationsprocessrättsliga särdrag. Centralt för undersökningen är hur avvägningen mellan de motstående intressena individens rättssäkerhet och processuell effektivitet har gjorts i migrationsprocessen. Den första särdraget som behandlas är den på det migrationsrättsliga This essay examines the role of procedural rules in the field of Swedish migration law, as this role is expressed through a number of procedural features that are special for migration law. The essay focuses on whether the procedural rules of Swedish migration law tend to prioritize the individual’s procedural safeguards or procedural efficiency. The first unique feature of the procedural rules o

Gig-ekonomins intåg på den svenska arbetsmarknaden har väckt många arbetsrättsliga frågor. Den här uppsatsen behandlar en av de frågorna, nämligen hur de traditionella arbetstagar- och arbetsgivarbegreppen står sig inom ramen för gig-ekonomin. Att det uppkommer arbetsrättsliga problem vid tillämpningen av begreppen beror på att den rättsliga utgångspunkten för arbetsrättens tillämpningsområde är eThe rise of the gig economy in the Swedish labour market has lead to several legal questions concerning labour law. This essay aims to discuss one of these questions, namely how the traditional concepts of employee and employer are holding up in the gig economy. The reason for this legal issue is that the overall departure of the applicability of Swedish labour law is a bilateral labour market wit

Phosphorus and nitrogen causes eutrophication in the lakes and seas. One source for phosphorous and nitrogen is wastewater from households. To reduce the impact to the seas it is important to purify the wastewater sufficient.In my literature study I have investigated if the greywater (wastewater from bath/shower, dish och wash) has any environmental and health influence on the surroundings. I have

The Öresund region, or Greater Copenhagen as it also is represented as, is a cross-border region connecting Skåne with Copenhagen. Political initiatives have forced development towards a more integrated region with one regional identity. This has been complicated by border controls, redefining the national borders in an inconvenient way, especially for everyday transnational commuters. Through sem

Computer-Assisted Language Learning, more simply abbreviated as "CALL", dates back to the 60s, 70s and 80s. Tested in language laboratories, pioneer CALL software was limited to very simply mechanical exercises on a stationary PC machine. By the year of 2016, product innovation has brought CALL software development into a new dimension. Today, we not only witness the growth of learning m

Children’s participation could seem to be an obvious ingredient in social services child protection investigations. Children’s rights to make their voice and opinion heard and to affect the decisions that involve them is stated in law, conventions and other regulations. Despite this, a lot of previous studies show that children’s rights often are forgotten or non-prioritized in social services. Th

Adela Innovation is a company in a situation similar to many other small and medium sized enterprises in Sweden today. The question about internationalisation is important because the development on the Swedish market is declining, but the company still is very small in an international context. Adela Innovation needs to find markets to enter, that are of an appropriate size and that don’t require

For any acquisition to take place the assets to be sold must be valued. Some argue that an asset is worth whatever an acquirer is willing to pay for it at any given time. We believe that there is an underlying value (intrinsic value) that depends on the expected future cash flows of the asset and the risk associated with these cash flows. There exist several methods for estimating this value. Trad

Abstract We studied the effects of UV-A radiation and predatory fish on mantle pigmentation of freshwater snails Radix balthica. The results showed that UV radiation and fish chemical cue induce larger ratios of pigmented area on mantle, respectively and when combined. UV radiation and predatory fish chemical cue seem to affect mantle pigmentation independently. The ratios (0~100%) of pigmented ma

Sent i oktober 2012 så orsakade orkanen Sandy stor skada på de Karibiska öarna men senare även i USA, New Jersey, då som ett extratropiskt system. Vädersystemet var annorlunda på många vis jämfört med en "normal" orkan med avseende på dess bana, avsaknaden av ett öga och dess enorma storlek. Dessa egenskaper berodde alla på den rådande cirkulationen i den övre troposfären. Det var växelvIn late October 2012 hurricane Sandy caused a lot of damage to the islands in the Caribbean Sea and later on (as an extratropical cyclone) to the United States; New Jersey. The system was different in many ways relative to “normal” hurricanes, e.g. its track, its lack of eye at times it was classified as a hurricane and its great size which all partly was due to the prevailing circulations in the

This thesis concentrates on one of the indirect Dark Matter (DM) detection methods, namely through observations of Very High Energy (VHE) $\gamma$-ray signals from DM annihilation (or decay) in cosmic sources using the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Technique (IACT). We discuss the particle physics and astrophysical aspects of those observations and perform several calculations which lead to an est

The Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase (NuRD) complex is a transcriptional regulator essential to several normal developmental processes, but also found to have a role in several types of cancer. In order to design cancer therapies targeting this complex, determining the structure and subunit composition is crucial. X-ray crystallography is required for the level of detail desired, demanding la

This thesis studies the application of Linear Predictive coding (LPC) in the downlink of Long Term Evolution (LTE) fronthaul, which comprises of BBU and RRH. This can act as an additional module in the existing system. Today, the transmission of a single complex sample from the BBU to the RRH consumes 30 bits. The research of the thesis is to analyze the application of linear prediction theory in

Since 2001 the Danish government has made increasing restrictions of the Aliens act. According to the Government, the purpose of these restrictions is to encourage greater integration of the ethnic minorities in the Danish society. The foreign policy of the Danish government has on the other hand received much criticism from the UN, EU and NGO's for not respecting the human rights of the ethni

Ladyfest Sweden is a cultural festival which aims to create a cultural space of expression for women, thus the artists and the organizers are women. It is organized by three different groups in three different cities: Malmö, Stockholm and Göteborg. This thesis is focused on Ladyfest Malmö, all the field work being realized with this group. We tried to include this phenomenon in a global and a part

Energy conservation is a current and expanding area in the building industry of today. The energy demands on buildings have been tightened through the years and the interest for energy efficient buildings has increased. Passive houses are one of the concepts that have emerged. New standards for energy and effect classification have been developed. Buildings are now going to be classified from how
