The Needs for Microtraining, Learning objects and Open Educational Resources in GIS

With today’s rapid changes in socio-economy and technology, knowledge and learning are critical issues for private and civil service organizations. The needs for competence development range from short informal courses (without ECTS credits) to formal courses at university level (with ECTS credits). This article describes objectives and results of a Leonardo project, eGIS+ that developed and imple

Measuring Material Properties through Gradient Based NMR: Diffusion and Imaging

In this work new methods based Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) have been developed to measure different kinds of structural properties in soft materials. The advantage of using NMR as a technique to measure material properties is that it is non-destructive, which makes it possible to measure on the actual piece of material that will be used for the application. One does not have to be concerned

Close-ups from afar: the nature of the informal venture capital market in a spatial context

The availability of external equity finance is one of the vital conditions for emergence and growth of young entrepreneurial firms. Yet, the access to finance is both limited and unevenly distributed in geographical space. At the same time, there is anecdotal evidence that the informal venture capital market plays a significant role in providing small-scale geographically dispersed finance to entr

Dietary exposure to persistent organochlorine compounds and health effects in women and their infants - Epidemiological studies on birthweight, cancer incidence, and mortality

In Sweden the main exposure route for both polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) and other persistent organochlorine compounds is through consumption of fatty fish species from the Baltic Sea (the eastern coast of Sweden). Cohorts of fishermen's wives from the Swedish east and west coasts were established. Interviewed east and west coast cohort women ate locally caught fish at least twice as often as wo

The gonadotropin receptors FSH-R and LH-R of Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus)—2. Differential follicle expression and asynchronous oogenesis

The biological activity and spatio–temporal expression patterns of the gonadotropin receptors FSH-R and LH-R were examined in the repetitive spawner Atlantic halibut to elucidate the gonadotropic regulation of the asynchronous follicle development. The cloned receptors were expressed in mammalian COS-7 cells, and stimulation with sea bass FSH and LH increased the cAMP production. The halibut FSH-R
