Popular Abstract in Swedish Antalet människor som insjuknar i cancer (cancerincidensen) runtom i världen ökar, exempelvis i Sverige har antalet diagnosticerade tumörer ökat med i snitt 2.1% per år de senaste 20 åren. Denna ökning förklaras bland annat av vår ökade livslängd och vårt val av livsstil. Trots detta har antalet människor som dör i cancer minskat de senaste 20 åren. Dessa motsägelsefullThe continual increase in incidence of cancer has created an urgent need for improved methods for diagnosis, prognosis and/or treatment. In this context, the field of biomarker research has expanded immensely during the last few years. This thesis, based on four original papers, revolves around protein biomarker discovery in cancer. For this purpose, an in-house design recombinant antibody microar

Designed as a system which, by transfer of knowledge and extended documentation, can act as one of many tools when it comes to dealing with situations containing violence, the SVARNE system may turn out to be an useful aid not only for people working with

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are expected to play a significant role in the next generation of energy systems and road vehicles for transportation. To achieve high performance, low cost and high reliability, significant attention is needed on detailed modeling and simulation of various physical processes in PEMFC unit-cells. Substantial effort is also required to reach proper water

The state-of-the-art in development tools today provides users with a large number of both syntactic and semantic services, such as syntax highlighting, name completions and refactorings. Preferably, every language should have sophisticated tool support, but unfortunately, the manual task of tool development is both time-consuming and error-prone, making it too costly for small language communitie

We present abundances of giant stars in the Galactic bulge and thickdisk. The stellar sample contains approximately 15 bulge giants and 20thick disk giants observed with the UVES on VLT in Chile. These resultswill be used to see if there exists an evolutionary connection betweenthe bulge and the thick disk and will also put further light into theformation of the Milky Way and the thick disk in par

This paper presents findings from a longitudinal, experimental project investigating the effect of translation on the morphosyntactic accuracy of advanced Swedish (L1) learners of English (L2). The subjects were first-year students of English at a Swedish university. The curriculum was communicative and translation (Focus-on-Forms) was used judiciously. The research is couched in cognitive psycho

This thesis is concerned with a particular type of generic sentence that is referred to as the ‘middle construction’ in the literature. The aim of the thesis is to offer a theoretical account of middles couched within the non-lexicalist framework of Distributed Morphology (see Halle & Marantz 1993 and subsequent work), and, more generally, within the Minimalist Program (see e.g. Chomsky 2000,
