  1. 16. Rubber hand illusion and affective touch : A systematic review

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Jesper Anell; [2020]
    Keywords : Rubber hand illusion; affective touch; cognitive neuroscience; body ownership; interoception;

    Abstract : The feeling of owning a body part is often investigated by conducting and manipulating the rubber hand illusion, a three-way integration of vision, touch, and proprioception. In the last decade, more research on the role of interoception, the sense of the body's’ internal state, in the illusion has been made. READ MORE

  3. 17. Investigation of Resistive Random Access Memory for 1T1R Nanowire Array Integration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Orestes Theodoridis; [2020]
    Keywords : RRAM; Nanowire; Memory Technology; Nanoelectronics; Nanoscience; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : As modern electronics have started to reach its physical scaling limits, novel architectures and physics is needed to meet future demands. Oxide-based Resistive Random Access Memory (RRAM) is a new emerging technology that uses filament formation and rupture in thin oxides to generate resistive switching. READ MORE

  4. 18. Protective capabilities of allopregnanolone against induced toxicity in SH-SY5Y cells relative to Alzheimer´s disease.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Author : Mohamed Mustafa; [2020]
    Keywords : allopregnanolone; neurosteroid; alzheimer s disease; SH-SY5Y; neuroprotection;

    Abstract : When the brain is exposed to a traumatic injury, the brain produces high amounts of neurosteroids like allopregnanolone and progesterone which show protective and neurogenic capacities. Alzheimer’s disease patients also have lower amounts of these neurosteroids in brain tissue. READ MORE

  5. 19. Real-time imaging of cerebrospinal fluid flow physiology at 7T

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Olle Haglund; [2019]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is involved in several diseases and patho- physiological states, such as Alzheimer’s disease and hydrocephalus. Previous studies CSF dynamics in the brain show that the flow of the CSF depends on cardiac pulsation, time of day and respiration. READ MORE

  6. 20. Assessment of Functional Connectivity Impairment in Rat Brains

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Androula Savva; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : While the rodent model has long been used in brain research, there exists no standardisedprocessing routine that can be employed for analysis and investigation of disease models. Thepresent thesis attempts to investigate a diseased brain model by implementing a collection ofscripts, combined with algorithms from existing neuroimaging software, and adapting themto the rodent brain, in an attempt to examine when and how monaural canal atresia affectsthe functional connectivity of the brain.
