  1. 1. Detecting structural variants in the DNA of the inbred Scandinavian wolf

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Lars Huson; [2023]
    Keywords : animal; animal population; bioinformatics; biological sciences; biology; Canis lupus; CNV; conservation genetics; conservation genomics; copy-number variation; DNA; endangered population; endangered species; evolution; evolutionary biology; extinction; genetic diversity; genetics; genetic variation; genomes; genomics; grey wolf; inbreeding; inbreeding depression; indel; mutation; pedigree; population genetics; population genomics; Scandinavia; smoove; snakemake; structural variant; SV; wolf; wolves;

    Abstract : Only 40 years ago, just three individuals made the journey from Finland/Russia to found the current wolf population in the southwest of Sweden. This population, that to this date descends from less than 10 founders, has a substantial increased extinction risk due to inbreeding. READ MORE

  2. 2. Machine learning assisted decision support system for image analysis of OCT

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Elias Yacoub; [2022]

    Abstract : Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) has been around for more than 30 years and is still being continuously improved. The department of ophthalmology is a part of Sahlgrenska Hospital that heavily uses OCT for helping people with the treatment of eye diseases. READ MORE

  3. 3. Implementing ExomeDepth with a variant filter as a CNV-calling tool for germline clinical diagnostic testing

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Alice Krysén; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Copy number variations (CNVs) cover approximately 4.9 - 9.5% of the human genome. CNVs are involved in both the development of disease and evolutionary adaptions. READ MORE

  4. 4. Karakterisering av genetiska riskfaktorer för dilaterad kardiomyopati hos hund

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Author : Sofia Jankulovska; [2017]
    Keywords : dilaterad kardiomyopati; hund; grand danois; newfoundlandshundar; genetisk associationsstudie; next-generation sequencing; digitalPCR; genetiska riskfaktorer; dilated cardiomyopathy; canine; grand danois; Newfoundlands dogs; genome-wide association studies; next-generation sequencing; digitalPCR; genetic risk factors;

    Abstract : Dilaterad kardiomyopati (DCM), är en hjärtsjukdom som förekommer hos ett flertal hundraser. Etiologin är inte fastställd. Genetiska studier på hund visar att gener involverade i utvecklandet av DCM skiljer sig åt mellan olika hundraser. READ MORE

  5. 5. Is the High Probability of Type II Error an Issue in Error Awareness ERP Studies?

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Boushra Dalile; [2016]
    Keywords : error awareness; error processing; type II error; error-related negativity; error positivity; error awareness task;

    Abstract : When researchers began addressing the electrophysiology of conscious error awareness more than a decade ago, the role of the error-related negativity (ERN), alongside the subsequently occurring error positivity (Pe), was an obvious locus of attention given the fact that they are taken as indices of cortical error processing. In contrast to the clear-cut findings that link the amplitude of the Pe to error awareness, the association between the ERN amplitude and error awareness is vastly unclear, with a range of studies reporting significant differences in the ERN amplitude with respect to error awareness, while others observing no modulation of the ERN amplitude.
