  1. 1. Estimating Variant Intolerance for Genes of Cattle

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

    Author : Simon Lanigan; [2024]
    Keywords : Genes; Cattle;

    Abstract : Cattle play a crucial role in providing nutrition and economic stability worldwide. Threats to their health, particularly infectious diseases, and genetic mutations, can have profound implications for both animal and human livelihoods. READ MORE

  3. 2. Analysis of relatedness and genetic diversity in Swedish sheep breeds using medium density (50K) SNP data

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

    Author : Krishani Devika Wijesinghe Sinhalage; [2023]
    Keywords : sheep; genetic diversity; population structure; inbreeding; runs of homozygosity; coat colour; MC1R;

    Abstract : The local Swedish sheep breeds belong to a group of sheep breeds known as North European short-tailed sheep breeds. Evaluation of genetic diversity, relatedness, and population structure of local breeds offers crucial metrics to prevent inbreeding depression, genetic erosion, and crossbreeding between locally adapted and exotic sheep breeds since these occurrences can have detrimental effects and ultimately lead to extinction.

  4. 3. Analysis of Mutable Game Environments Built on a Tetrahedral Mesh : Tetras, a Potential Alternative to Voxels

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Noah Tell; [2023]
    Keywords : Voxels; Tetrahedron; Tetrahedral Mesh; Tetrahedralization; Tessellation; Mutable Environment; Editable Terrain; Deformable Environment; Boolean Operations; Real-Time; Computer Games; Computational Geometry; Voxlar; Tetrahedror; Tetrahedralisering; Tessellering; Formbar Terräng; Booliska Operationer; Realtid; Datorspel; Beräkningsgeometri;

    Abstract : Historically 3D game environments have almost always been immutable. Mutable environments are a technical challenge that will affect performance. For games of the future to continue approaching realism, mutable environments are an essential step. READ MORE

  5. 4. Molecular characterization of vascular malformations using single-cell RNA sequencing and immunohistological analysis

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Amanda Norrén; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : CCM is a human disease in which vascular malformations develop in the central nervous system, predominantly in the brain. The malformations which can measure up to several centimeters in size are dilated and leaky vessels, with unstable cellular junctions and thin vessel walls. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluating targeted combination therapies in EGFR wild-type non-small-cell lung cancer using mass spectrometry-based proteomics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för immunteknologi

    Author : Johan Thorsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Survival for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has been significantly improved by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with EGFR mutations. However, certain subpopulations of NSCLC patients with EGFR wild-type (wt) status have been shown to also respond to EGFR-TKIs. READ MORE
