Dissociated dopamine-rich cell suspensions were prepared from the ventral mesencephalon of rat embryos and injected in one or several sites in striatal and non-striatal regions in the dopaminergically denervated brain of adult rats. While the grafts survived well in all sites, the dopamine fibre outgrowth was markedly different depending on whether the grafts occurred in an area normally innervate

Fluorescence spectroscopy in two different biomedical applications have been studied. One field has been to explore whether fluorescence spectroscopy can be used to determine the depth of a fluorescent object inside a tissue-like medium. Recorded fluorescence spectra depend on the localisation of the fluorescent inclusion and may provide additional information for optical tomography. The second ma

This paper describes a case study at an automotive company with the purpose ov developing an economically based decision support tool, for strategic decision about wheather to chose grinding or shaving as a finishing method in gear manufacturing. In the study different cost models are compared regarding input parameters in alignment with the required input data required to make a decision. With th

Objectives: This study explores how different combinations of the number of diseases and experienced symptoms are related to life satisfaction in a population of 296 eighty-year-olds in southern Sweden. Methods: Three different models, visualizing different health profiles, in the form of reported number of diseases and number of experienced symptoms in different combinations were created and are

In secure computing systems, isolation between different components is normally the basis for security. However, ab- solute isolation is seldom desired nor practical. Often for the system to function, a secure communication channel between otherwise isolated components is also needed. In this work, we consider implementation of the secure Remote Procedure Call (RPC) mechanism defined by the Global

A fundamental problem in vision is how to identify the occluding contours of objects and surfaces, given the ambiguity inherent in low-level visual input. A computational model is proposed for how occluding contours could be identified by making use of simple heuristics that reduce the ambiguity of individual features. In the striate cortex, a large majority of cells are selective for both contras

This paper is an exploratory discussion of place and space from a cultural geographic point of view. On the one hand it discusses the concept of place, trying to identify some of its characteristics connected to different Nordic understandings of landscape and place; this will take departure in people’s practice in place and landscape. It will on the other hand discuss the more abstract concept of
