11. Evaluation of the Oxford Nanopore Minion for the identification and differentiation of MRSA and non-MRSA isolates
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Staphylococcus aureus are bacterial pathogens causing infectious diseases. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus, or MRSA, carry the mecA or mecC genes generating resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. MRSA is problematic to treat and crucial to rapidly detect while current diagnostic workflows are time-consuming. READ MORE

12. Intertidal species richness and abundances in a recent small Marine Protected Area in Portugal: lack of effects from protection suggests changing strategies in the future
University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i biologiAbstract : Marine protected areas (MPAs) are being created around the world as the concern on species and habitats preservation is growing. A widespread concern related to the important lack of regulation and effective conservation measures has been raised, calling the attention to the importance of no-take areas within MPA’s. READ MORE

13. Effects of organic matter depletion on fungal communities in a reconstructed boreal forest podzol system
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant PathologyAbstract : The boreal forest biome serves as a valuable resource, both as a source of wood, pulp and biofuel, and as a sink of atmospheric carbon (C). A large proportion of C is sequestered to the soil of the boreal biome, however belowground processes are still poorly understood. READ MORE

14. Preprocessing of Nanopore Current Signals for DNA Base Calling
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : DNA is a molecule containing genetic information in all living organisms and many viruses. The process of determining the underlying genetic code in the DNA of an organism is known as DNA sequencing, and is commonly used for instance to study viruses, perform forensic analysis, and for medical diagnosis.

15. Temporal Convolutional Networks for Nanopore DNA Sequencing
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Nanopore DNA sequencing is a novel method forsequencing DNA where an electronic signal is modulated bynucleotides passing through nanosized pores embedded in a mem-brane. While current state-of-the-art solutions employ recurrentneural networks to analyse the signal, temporal convolutionalnetworks have recently been shown to match or outperformrecurrent networks in signal processing tasks.
