1. 1. Autophagy and senescence in primary human bronchial epithelial cells in the context of COPD

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

   Author : Annie Vegraeus; [2023]
   Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third largest cause of death worldwide, with its most prominent risk factor being inhalation of smoke and pollutants. In this project, we studied two processes that are involved in COPD: autophagy and cellular senescence. READ MORE

3. 2. Uncertainties in the use of synthetic CT (sCT) for daily online adaptive radiotherapy for lung cancer

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

   Author : Johansson Vivika; [2023]
   Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : Background and purpose: Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) based online adaptive radiotherapy (oART) has been clinically implemented for several anatomical sites worldwide. However, random and abrupt anatomical changes with large density alterations can occur in lung patients, leading to uncertainties with synthetic computed tomography (sCT) and dose calculation.

4. 3. Development of Nickel-Titanium Shape Memory Alloys using Electron Beam Melting

   University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

   Author : Georgios Manolios; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In this project, the effect of electron beam melting on the behavior of NiTi shape memory alloyshas been studied, with focus on the effects of recycling powder within the process and theprocess parameters used and how “smoking” is affected. Flowability, powder characteristicsand chemical composition have been evaluated using imaging analysis techniques, Hallflowmeter measurements, FT4 powder rheometry and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopyboth in virgin powder and in recycled powders.
