36. Investigating streptococcal biodiversity in sepsis using next-generation sequencing
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Sepsis is one of the leading causes for fatalities in the intensive care unit, and also one of the biggest health problems worldwide. It is a disease caused primarily by bacterial infections but can also be caused by viral or fungal infections. READ MORE

37. Quality control of a somatic mutation analysis pipeline for next generation sequencing data
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för immunologi, genetik och patologiAbstract : Many studies are focused on analysis of next generation sequencingdata from normal and cancer tissues with the intention ofidentifying somatic mutations in cancer. In brief, the producedsequences are mapped to the reference genome; later the data fromthe tumour and normal sample is compared to identify mutations inthe tumour. READ MORE

38. Haplotype Inference as a caseof Maximum Satisfiability : A strategy for identifying multi-individualinversion points in computational phasing
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Molekylär evolutionAbstract : Phasing genotypes from sequence data is an important step betweendata gathering and downstream analysis in population genetics,disease studies, and multiple other fields. This determination ofthe sequences of markers corresponding to the individualchromosomes can be done on data where the markers are in lowdensity across the chromosome, such as from single nucleotidepolymorphism (SNP) microarrays, or on data with a higher localdensity of markers like in next generation sequencing (NGS).

39. Prevalence of microorganisms in reindeer(Rangifer tarandustarandus)and possible effects of climate changes.
University essay fromAbstract : The climate in the north is changing over time, which affects the nature in many ways. For instance, some microorganisms that cause infections might become more common. This might have negative consequences for reindeer husbandry. In Sweden, this is an industry that is relatively large. READ MORE

40. Detecting population structure within the Scandinavian lynx (Lynx lynx) population
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesAbstract : The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx), a feline spread all over Eurasia has, as many other carnivores, been severely hunted, and due to this many populations of lynx have suffered from bottlenecks and fragmentation. As bottlenecks and fragmentation may have detrimental effects on the genetic status of a population, researchers have been keen to look closer into the genetic status of the lynx. READ MORE
