    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för globala studier

    Author : Gustav Sjölund; [2022-11-03]
    Keywords : United Nations Security Council; Special Committee on Peacekeeping Operations; coherence; adaptability; protection of civilians;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the coherence and adaptiveness of the UN Special Committee on Peacekeeping Operations and the UN Security Council in the case of protection of civilians in peacekeeping missions. Ignasi Torrent’s conceptualisation on coherence and adaptiveness, that coherence limits adaptiveness, is used to analyse if there is a correlation between the two. READ MORE

  2. 2. An analysis of decentralized peer-to-peer file sharing performance : An overview of how different parameters affect the average download time in a BitTorrent-like network

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

    Author : Eric Söderberg; Jakob Råhlén; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : During the COVID-19 pandemic, online teaching has become more prevalent than ever before. As teaching resources such as video lectures are to be distributed from a single teacher to a large number of students, who may choose to download the files at any time of the day, questions arise as to how to do so efficiently.

  3. 3. Evaluation of next-generation sequencing as a tool for determining the presence of pathogens in clinical samples

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Alexander Kokkonen; [2019]
    Keywords : NGS; next generation sequencing; clinical microbiology; systems biology;

    Abstract : Metagenomic sequencing is an increasingly popular way of determining microbial diversity from environmental and clinical samples. By specifically targeting the 16S rRNA gene found in all bacteria, classifications of pathogens can be determined based on the variable and conserved regions found in the gene. READ MORE

  4. 4. Quality control of a somatic mutation analysis pipeline for next generation sequencing data

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för immunologi, genetik och patologi

    Author : Marina Rashyna; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : 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

  5. 5. Analysis of somatic mutations in papillomavirus positive tumours from younger and older oropharyngeal cancer patients

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Andreas Ährlund-Richter; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT Background: Human Papilloma Virus positive (HPV+) Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC), dominated by tonsillar cancer (TSCC) and base of tongue cancer (BOTSCC) has low mutation-frequency and better survival for younger than older patients.Aim: To examine if HPV+ TSCC and BOTSCC have distinct gene-mutation profiles, for 50 often-mutated genes in cancer, in younger compared to older patients and to test and compare different variant callers to get a deeper understanding of the data.
