Popular science summary: What the zebra finches did not see There is more out there than what we can see; that is something that most people would agree on. And I am not talking about ghosts from the beyond or aliens from space; I am talking about all those things that we know exist but that we are not able to see with our own eyes or feel with our own senses. I am not talking science fiction, I
Blog post #1 Describe the idea!While the majority of online travel search engines compare prices, durations and services, they most often neglect CO2 emissions. To keep the prices low, search engines recommend flight routes with many (CO2 -intensive) stopovers and detours. The idea is to change this and develop a flight search engine ranking the results by environmental friendliness. Who are you?

Rik Nauta - Lead Wizards Describe yourself and your project. How did you get the idea? We are building a new way of searching the internet and generating perfect B2B leads. The seed of the idea was actually handed to me by a mentor who I’d created several lead lists for. I got bored of the work and wrote a little web-crawler to automate the process. He helped me see and explore the business value

Cubozoans, or box jellyfish, differ from all other cnidarians by an active fish-like behaviour and an elaborate sensory apparatus(1,2). Each of the four sides of the animal carries a conspicuous sensory club ( the rhopalium), which has evolved into a bizarre cluster of different eyes(3). Two of the eyes on each rhopalium have long been known to resemble eyes of higher animals, but the function and

While female labour market participation is increasing worldwide, the development in Chile is slow and concentrated to the capital city of Santiago de Chile. Education has been found to increase female labour market participation in several studies, where my thesis contributes to the research with more careful analysis of the effects of higher education. Rather than analysing the joint effect of h
Available studies on visual field disturbances in diabetic retinopathy have shown conflicting results, obtained with different and often non-comparable techniques. We have studied visual fields at different stages of diabetic retinopathy with modern sensitive computerized technique taking precautions to limit disturbing effects of random field variation and lack of perimetric experience.

A distinguishing feature of youth detention homes—and any other prisonlike institution—is the fact that inmates cannot just leave. They might escape, and there are ways to be transferred, enjoy an excursion, and get permission for home visits, but typically the young people in this case are supposed to remain within their given institution.

För ungefär 350 miljoner år sedan utvecklade de första insekterna förmågan att flyga och har sedan dess dominerat våra terrestra miljöer. Trots sina pyttesmå hjärnor och avsaknad av avancerade kontrollinstrument så lyckas flygande insekter på många vis utkonkurrera modern flygteknik. Humlor och bin kan till exempel leta upp en födokälla långt ifrån sitt bo, återvända hem igen och sedan upprepa denDespite their small brains and tiny eyes, flying insects are capable of detecting and avoiding collisions with moving obstacles, and with remarkable precision they navigate through environments of different complexity. For this thesis, I have investigated how bumblebees use the pattern of apparent image motion that is generated in their eyes as they move through the world (known as optic flow), in

Decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) contributes significantly to the global carbon (C) cycle and climate feedbacks. SOM decomposition depends on soil microbial activities, and these activities are driven by the availability of C and other nutrients. Plant root exudates are known to alter decomposition of SOM, a phenomenon referred to as rhizosphere priming effects (RPE).

Megan from the USAWhy did you choose Lund University? "I chose Lund because it offers the perfect balance of academics and student life. Our city offers a community that can be as small or as big as you choose to make it. Most importantly, my programme is a unique one that combines both theoretical and applied skills, and Lund is one of the few universities that offers it!"What are your first impr

The aim of this master’s thesis is to illustrate the attitude of a number of public librarian’s towards audiobooks and reading by listening, and to describe their experiences of literature mediation of audiobooks in public libraries. As a result of that I wish to shed light on the position of audiobooks in public libraries today. The background is that the audiobook as a book format has grown big

Popular Abstract in English According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), 415 million people suffer from diabetes worldwide. Diabetes occurs when the pancreatic beta cells are no longer able to produce or properly use insulin. Insulin regulates blood glucose levels by enabling glucose uptake into cells, providing the body with energy. Elevated glucose levels cause damages to highly vasDiabetes mellitus is metabolic disorder caused by a defect or lack of beta cell-produced insulin that controls blood glucose homeostasis. In addition to glucose, insulin secretion is regulated by the autonomic nervous system (ANS); the neurotransmitter acetylcholine as well as monoamines, such as dopamine, serotonin, melatonin and norepinephrine. Using a MafA mutant mouse model, we show that MafA
Ectoedemia argyropeza (Zeller, 1839) possesses a compound eye that exhibits features of both apposition and superposition type eyes. Like apposition eyes, the eye of E. argyropeza lacks a clear-zone, which in superposition eyes separates the distal dioptric from the proximal light-perceiving structures. On the other hand, a tracheal layer around the proximal ends of the rhabdom as well as a well-d
Box jellyfish, cubomedusae, possess an impressive total of 24 eyes of four morphologically different types. Two of these eye types, called the upper and lower lens eyes, are camera-type eyes with spherical fish-like lenses. Compared with other cnidarians, cubomedusae also have an elaborate behavioral repertoire, which seems to be predominantly visually guided. Still, positive phototaxis is the onl
