Inflammation influences several steps of adult neurogenesis, but whether it regulates the functional integration of the new neurons is unknown. Here, we explored, using confocal microscopy and whole-cell patch-clamp recordings, whether a chronic inflammatory environment affects the morphological and electrophysiological properties of new dentate gyrus granule cells, labeled with a retroviral vecto
Retinal image motion could be due to movement of the observer through space or an object relative to the scene. Optic flow, form, and change of position cues all provide information that could be used to separate out retinal motion due to object movement from retinal motion due to observer movement. In Experiment 1 we used a minimal display to examine the contribution of optic flow and form cues.
The purpose of this study is to assemble information of costs per fatal casualty in traffic accidents, adopted by authorities in different countries. analyse and compare these figures as well as the methods used for estimating these values. A questionnaire was sent to 19 countries from which 11 gave information on cost per fatality and methods of valuation. The costs per fatality, usually defined
Cholesterol-rich clusters of SNARE (soluble NSF attachment protein receptor) proteins have been implicated as being important for exocytosis. Here we demonstrate the significance of cholesterol for normal biphasic insulin secretion in mouse beta cells by removal of cholesterol from the plasma membrane using methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MBCD). Maximal inhibition of insulin secretion in static incubati
This master thesis was performed in collaboration with Najell AB with the purpose to improve their product, the SleepCarrier. The SleepCarrier can be used as a baby nest, a play mat and a soft carry cot. With the additional harness, the product can also be used as a baby carrier. The main focus of this project was to improve the user experience of the harness by focusing on ergonomics and intuitiv
Background: Mental disorders, symptoms of mental illness, and prevalence rates of such among athletes are equal to or exceed those of the general population, and research findings have suggested that athletes have more risk factors than the general population during the COVID-19 pandemic due to the far-reaching consequences COVID-19 restrictions have had on the world of sport. The study aimed to c
Neural stem and progenitor cells from the embryonic forebrain can be expanded under growth factor stimulation in vitro, either as free-floating aggregates called neurospheres or as attached monolayer cultures. We have previously shown that despite the maintenance of important regulatory genes such as Gsh2, in vitro expansion of cells from the lateral ganglion eminence (LGE) restricts their differe
Botswana is an arid country endemic to drought. The major water supply in the capital Gaborone, the Gaborone Reservoir, has received a failed status early this year due to diminishing water levels which have fallen below six percent of the total potential volume in 2014. However, there seems to be no official consensus as to what has caused this extreme decrease in volume. Water scarcity can have
In the modern business environment, there is growing number of companies placing weight on sustainability-related issues, such as waste management, local communities, use of resources etc. At the same time such stakeholders as investors, consumers, employees and communities are increasingly interested in understanding company’s efforts and progresses in the area of sustainability. With that respec
In 2006, the city of Korsør in Slagelse Municipality in Denmark experienced the worst storm surge recorded in history. In order to prevent greater damage of buildings and sensitive infrastructures in the future, dikes and evacuation procedures have been brought up for discussion. This thesis examines resilience to flooding in Korsør by conducting in-depth qualitative interviews with a resident fro
The aim of this thesis is to comparatively map, systematically present and analytically discuss leading policy ideas articulated by the two nationalist/national conservative/populist parliamentary parties in Estonia, Isamaa and EKRE, in the run-up to the 2024 European Parliament elections. A special focus is oriented towards leading ideas and messages that are of great relevance and timeliness in
Background: Youth handball players are vulnerable to injuries. Because there is no available injury prevention training specifically developed for youth handball players targeting both upper and lower limbs or incorporating psychological aspects of injury, we undertook the € Implementing injury Prevention training ROutines in TEams and Clubs in youth Team handball (I-PROTECT)' project. We used an
