  1. 16. Multiple-Emitter Super-resolution Imaging using the Alternating Descent Conditional Gradient Method

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Dolev Illouz; [2023]
    Keywords : super-resolution; alternating descent conditional gradient method; ADCG; multiple-emitter localization; nanoscale imaging; single molecule tracking; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the state-of-the-art 2D super-resolution technique alternating descent conditional gradient (ADCG) method's ability to accurately localize fluorophores in diffraction-limited single molecule images (SMI) and analyze the impact of pre-processing and post-processing modules on ADCG's fluorophore localization. A synthetic dataset obtained from the 2013 Grand Challenge localization microscopy and a temporally linked dataset obtained from an unpublished set of Optical DNA mapping experiments performed by Jonathan Jeffet at the NanoBioPhotonix Lab at Tel-Aviv University were initially segmented to extract their noise parameters.

  2. 17. Gene expression editing in myeloma cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9 technique

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Author : Wilma Wadman; [2023]
    Keywords : BMPR1A; BMPR2; bone morphogenetic protein; gene knockout; multiple myeloma;

    Abstract : Multiple myeloma, or myeloma, is a bone marrow cancer which characterizes by uncontrolled proliferation of mutant plasma cells. It is a disease that claims many lives every year, mostly due to the absence of curative treatment. Finding a suitable treatment is therefor of great importance. READ MORE

  3. 18. Autoencoder-Based Likelihood-Free Parameter Inference of Gene Regulatory Network

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Liang Cheng; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Likelihood-free parameter inference is a well-known statistical methodology that estimates the posterior distribution of model parameters even in cases where the likelihood function is intractable. The performance of this method is highly correlated with the learning of summary statistics, which capture the key features from the high dimensional data such as time series. READ MORE

  4. 19. Exploring the genetic cause of myotonic dystrophy in horses

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

    Author : Thomas Simon; [2023]
    Keywords : genetics; bioinformatics; myotonic dystrophy; horses; variant analysis;

    Abstract : Myotonic Dystrophy (MD) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder that leads to a wide range of clinical signs including stiffness, abnormal muscle relaxation, and muscle atrophy or hypertrophy. Affected muscles develop a prolonged contracture in response to percussion of the muscle and show waxing and waning complex repetitive discharges in electromyography (EMG). READ MORE

  5. 20. Anaerobic cellulose degrading bacteria isolated from biogas plants

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Caroline Sjöberg; [2023]
    Keywords : anaerobic bacteria; biogas; cellulose; cellobiose; VFA; enzyme activity; TRFLP;

    Abstract : Two cellulose degrading bacteria, named BCISO-4 and DC1-18-4, were isolated from samples retrieved from two large scale biogas-plants. In order to investigate and determine information regarding their growth preferences multiple tests were performed. READ MORE
