  1. 1. Systematic Multi-Parametric Analysis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Flow Cytometry Drug Screens using Flowty

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Augusta Jensen; [2023]
    Keywords : Acute myeloid leukemia; AML; cellular subpopulations; data analysis; precision medicine; Flowty; applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease, making it difficult to treat. The standard treatment is intensive chemotherapy and has not changed in 40 years. However, recently new drugs and as less intensive treatment regimens have been approved in the US and in Europe. However. READ MORE

  2. 2. Uncertainties in the use of synthetic CT (sCT) for daily online adaptive radiotherapy for lung cancer

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Johansson Vivika; [2023]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background and purpose: Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) based online adaptive radiotherapy (oART) has been clinically implemented for several anatomical sites worldwide. However, random and abrupt anatomical changes with large density alterations can occur in lung patients, leading to uncertainties with synthetic computed tomography (sCT) and dose calculation.

  5. 5. A detailed study on Amazon Forest structure and mortality rates through LPJ-GUESS vegetation model

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Sara Mazzuoli; [2021]
    Keywords : Amazon s Forest; LPJ-GUESS; simulation; TEAM-NETWORK; dynamic vegetation model; observation; mortality; allometry; tree stand structure; biomass; cohort; PFTs; plant functional types; NPP; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Nowadays it has become relevant for scientists to understand the impact of tropical forest structure on the Global Carbon Cycle. Dynamic vegetation models have been developed to pursue this issue, specifically by improving algorithms that could analyze the allometry, biomass content and mortality rate of each singular simulated plant individual and how this responds to climate change, management and rising CO2 concentrations.
