In this thesis, I studied the evolution of reproductive isolation in the sister species Silene dioica (L.) Clairv. and S. latifolia Poiret.

The objective of this research was to facilitate the use of quantitative cardiac molecular imaging by developing and validating methods and applications.

Disputation: Olivier Donzel-Gargand, avd för fasta tillståndets elektronik, “The multiple faces of interfaces – Electron microscopy analysis of CuInSe2 thin-film solar cells”. 28 september kl 9.30, Polhemsalen. Opponent: Dr Daniel Abou-Ras, Department of Nanoscale Structures and Microscopic Analysis, Helmholz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie, Berlin, Tyskland.

Using mainly electron microscopy characterization techniques, this thesis has explored the questions related to the interface control in thin-film photovoltaic solar cells based on CuInSe2 (CIS) absorber materials.

"Role of nuclear receptors in human adipose tissue metabolism"

This thesis explored the role of nuclear receptors, mainly, glucocorticoid and estrogen receptors (GR and ER, respectively) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), and their interplay in the regulation of metabolic function and dysfunction in human AT.

The purpose of the thesis is to identify, describe and interpret two series of terracotta objects from southern Ghana originally donated by Robert P. Wild to the British Museum in London between 1933 and 1936.

The purpose of this thesis is to present state of the art in radial basis function generated finite difference (RBF-FD) methods for pricing of financial derivatives. This work provides a detailed overview of RBF-FD properties and challenges that arise when the RBF-FD methods are used in financial applications.

Confirmation bias is a tendency to selectively search for and emphasize information that is consistent with a preferred hypothesis, whereas opposing information is ignored or downgraded. This thesis examines the role of confirmation bias in criminal cases, primarily focusing on the Swedish legal setting. It also examines possible debiasing techniques.

In this thesis we present some explorations within supergravity, a low energy limit of string theory, studying non-supersymmetric vacua, its stability, and the possibility of finding dS.

Basic (apatite-based) calcium phosphate cements (CPCs), and acidic (brushite and monetite-based) CPCs are used as bone replacement materials because of their bioactivity, mouldability and ability to harden in place. However, their application is limited by their inherent brittleness and difficulties related to their handling. The current thesis aimed to provide solutions to these limitations.

Disputation: Jun Luo, avd för tillämpad materialvetenskap, “Calcium phosphate based biomaterials for bone augmentation”. Opponent: Professor Marc Bohner, RMS Foundation, Bettlach, Schweiz.

The Amboseli ecosystem, home of Amboseli National Park, is renowned for its extraordinary biodiversity, and has long drawn the attention of conservationists and ecologists hoping to safeguard the healthy functioning of this Kenyan rangeland and the pastoral traditions that have brought this landscape into being.

The overall aim of this thesis was to expand the current knowledge regarding the advantages and limitations of computed tomography (CT) for patients with acute diverticulitis and evaluate outpatient treatment for uncomplicated diverticulitis.
