1. 6. Microfluidic flow splitter shape optimization for high throughput

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Christoffer Papamoustos Palmér; Joel Linder; [2023]
   Keywords : Genetic algorithms; Lab-on-a-chip; Optimization; Acoustofluidics; Microfluidics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Due to an increasing incidence rate, the need for new effective methods for diagnosing cancer are of high importance. Studies have shown that circulating tumor cells, CTCs, have great potential as a diagnostic biomarker. Acoustophoresis is a label free method, capable of separating CTCs from red blood cells in a blood sample. READ MORE

3. 7. A Machine Learning Approach on Analysis of Emission Spectra for Application in XFEL Experiments

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

   Author : Harald Agelii; [2023]
   Keywords : Structural biology; Machine learning; Neural networks; emission spectrum; XFEL; X-ray free electron laser; SFX; Serial femtosecond X-ray crystallography; Proteins; Diagnostics;

   Abstract : In this thesis we investigate two potential applications of machine learning in the context of X-ray imaging and spectroscopy of biological samples, particularly such using X-ray free electron lasers (XFEL). We first investigate the possibility of using an emission spectrum, recorded from a sample after being probed by an incident X-ray, as a diagnostic tool. READ MORE

4. 8. Approved medicinal products with potential companion diagnostic tests : An Inventory of the Swedish/European drug market

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

   Author : Katrin Andersson; [2023]
   Keywords : CDx; Companion Diagnostic; IVDMD; In-vitro diagnostic medical devices; Regulation EU 2017 746;

   Abstract : The newly introduced regulation (EU) 2017/746 aims to make In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices (IVDMD), which include companion diagnostic tests (CDx), a widespread method of authorising medicinal products in the European market. However, European SmPCs (Summary of Product Characteristics) currently do not explicitly refer to the term or classify tests associated with medicinal products as CDx. READ MORE

5. 9. Self-supervised representation learning from electrocardiogram data for medical applications

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

   Author : Matilda Andersson; [2023]
   Keywords : Self-supervised learning; Deep learning; Cardiovascular disease; Electrocardiogram; ECG; SimCLR; BYOL; VICReg; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, increasing yearly. However, many abnormalities in heart cycles can be discovered and treated years before the onset of diseases. But in most societies, regular health checkups are a concept reserved for cars, not humans. READ MORE

6. 10. Ion and ENA precipitation onto the upper atmosphere of Venus : Estimate of precipitation maps using data from a hybrid model

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

   Author : Lorenzo Obersnel; [2023]
   Keywords : Eneregetic Neutral Atoms; Venus; Ion precipitation; ENA precipitation; Atomi Neutri Energetici; Venere; precipitazione di ioni; precipitazione di atomi neutri; Energisk Neutral Atom; Venus; Utfällningen joner; Utfällningen Energisk Neutral Atom;

   Abstract : Venus does not have a strong intrinsic magnetic field as the Earth, and its magnetosphere is induced by the interaction of the solar wind with the ionosphere. The near-Venus space environment is characterized by the presence of a bow shock and of an induced magnetic boundary linked to the interplanetary magnetic field orientation. READ MORE
