CLOTHING REAL EVAPORATIVE RESISTANCE DETERMINED BY MEANS OF A SWEATING THERMAL MANIKIN: A NEW ROUND-ROBIN STUDY

The previous round-robin (RR) study on clothing evaporative resistance (Ret) has shown that the repeatability and reproducibility of clothing Ret measurements on sweating manikins were rather low. To further examine and enhance the measurement accuracy, a new strict but feasible test protocol was proposed and thoroughly examined in a new round-robin test. Eight laboratories participated in this st

Taming of the BEAST

Modern communication systems are designed to enable reliable and fast information transfer. Therefore, efficient channel coding and decoding strategies are needed, which guarantee sufficiently low probability of erroneous reception with affordable receiver complexity. For many channel codes, optimal decoding with traditional methods is prohibitively complex. The challenge therefore lies in designi

Cerebellar pathways and mechanisms in classical conditioning

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hjärnan ansvarar för styrningen av vårt beteende. Exempelvis kan skador på hjärnan vara förödande för vår motorik eller förändra vår personlighet. Hur hjärnan exakt ger upphov till vårt beteende är i huvudsak okänt men hjärnans betydelse för vissa delar av vårt beteende har studerats genom att bryta ner vårt beteende i avgränsade, identifierbara beståndsdelar. Ett avgräIt has been suggested that the cerebellar mossy fibre afferents transmit the conditioned stimulus (CS) information to the cerebellum. Several studies are consistent with this suggestion but alternative explanations have not been excluded. In conditioned ferrets, the forelimb CS was replaced by a direct stimulation of the cerebellar mossy fibre afferents. It was found that true conditioned response

Identification of pathway-biased and deleterious melatonin receptor mutants in autism spectrum disorders and in the general population

Melatonin is a powerful antioxidant and a synchronizer of many physiological processes. Alteration of the melatonin pathway has been reported in circadian disorders, diabetes and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). However, very little is known about the genetic variability of melatonin receptors in humans. Here, we sequenced the melatonin receptor MTNR1A and MTNR1B, genes coding for MT1 and MT2 rece

Odour detection in the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria: antennal structure and function

The desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria, is a polymorphic insect that occurs in two morphological and physiological distinct phases, solitary and gregarious, depending on population density. The two phases are reversible at any developmental stage. The gregarious phase produces and uses stage-specific pheromones, that keep the swarm together. In my thesis, I investigated the functional morphology
