Proteogenomics and Hi-C reveal transcriptional dysregulation in high hyperdiploid childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Hyperdiploidy, i.e. gain of whole chromosomes, is one of the most common genetic features of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), but its pathogenetic impact is poorly understood. Here, we report a proteogenomic analysis on matched datasets from genomic profiling, RNA-sequencing, and mass spectrometry-based analysis of >8,000 genes and proteins as well as Hi-C of primary patient samples f

Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Model Predictive Control of a Diesel Engine

Traditionally, diesel engine control has had to rely on indirect feedback variables and empirical open-loop maps because direct measurements of the variables representing high-level objectives, such as emissions, have not been available in production engines. With new sensors being developed, the opportunity opens to design the controller directly based on high-level objectives. In this paper, we

Vision Based Tracker for Dart-Catching Robot

This paper describes how high-speed computer vision can be used in a motion control application. The specific application investigated is a dart catching robot. Computer vision is used to detect a flying dart and a filtering algorithm predicts its future trajectory. This will give data to a robot controller allowing it to catch the dart. The performance of the implemented components indicates that

Model Predictive Control for Scheduling and Routing in a Solid Waste Management System

Solid waste collection and hauling account for the greater part of the total cost in modern solid waste management systems. In a recent initiative, 3,300 Swedish recycling containers have been fitted with level sensors and wireless communication equipment thereby giving waste collection operators access to real-time information on the status of each container. In a previous study (Johansson, 2006)

Nationalekonomen och elefanten i rummet

Veterligen sympatiserade inga svenska nationalekonomer med Hitlers Tredjerike. I denna artikel riktas inte desto mindre uppmärksamhet mot en av de mestframträdande ekonomerna, Gustav Cassel. Detta mot bakgrund av att hanunder mellankrigstiden, fram till Hitlers maktövertagande 1933, var mycketengagerad i och för Tyskland. Hur hanterade han den tyska genomklappningen?I Cassels memoarer framstår Naz

The Collegial Project Course: a systematic way towards institutional change

This paper presents and discusses how to support disciplinary communities of academic teachersto create a lasting change in educational culture. By stressing the similarities with the fully accepted research culture and their research knowledge this have been possible. Evaluations consistentlyshow that participants appreciate the collegial approach. It offers them an opportunity to deal withchalle

What is it with education that make many critics leave their role as an informed researcher and argue on the basis of personal opinions?

In this paper, we have analyzed a nationwide debate following the introduction of an individual meritsystem for educational development. When reforms are aimed towards research, even the toughestdiscussions can most often be resolved when arguments are backed by evidence. Not surprisingly, as this goes hand in hand with the language and mindset of the receivers in the researchcommunity. But, when

Esterified plantain flour for the production of cookies rich in indigestible carbohydrates

The role of raw plantain flour (RPF) and its citric acid (CA)-esterified counterpart (EPF) on the carbohydrate nutritional properties of cookies was investigated. Cookies were elaborated with commercial wheat flour (CWF), RPF, EPF, or a CWF-EPF blend, and assessed for composition, starch digestibility, texture and sensory properties. EPF-cookie showed the lowest digestible starch (DS) content and

Optical investigations on particles evolution and flame properties during pulverized coal combustion in O 2 /N 2 and O 2 /CO 2 conditions

The evolution of soot and coal/char as well as the flame properties, during pulverized coal combustion in O 2 /N 2 and O 2 /CO 2 conditions, were experimentally studied using optical diagnostics. The jet flames of pulverized coal particles were produced by using an entrained-flow reactor with optical access, and the oxygen concentrations of the gas carrying pulverized coal particles were vari

I den offentlege debatten om høgare utdanning er undervisarane påfallande fråverande. Dei sterkaste stemmene tilhøyrar politikarane, studentane, institusjonsleiarane og pedagogane. Når undervisarane melder seg på er det oftast i ein klagesong over høgt arbeidspress, krevjande studentar og mangel på tid og ressursar til forsking. Kvifor oppfattar brorparten av undervisarar i høgare utdanning undervI den offentlege debatten om høgare utdanning er undervisarane påfallande fråverande.

Reliability of the point-of care analyzer “StatStrip® Xpress™” for measurement of fetal blood lactate

Objectives: Measurement of lactate in fetal blood is used to assess the degree of anaerobic metabolism. The technical difficulties in obtaining enough scalp blood for analysis by a bloodgas-analyzer advocates for the use of a point-of-care device. StatStrip®Xpress™ (SSX) has shown promising properties but needs further evaluation before implementation into fetal surveillance. Methods: Arterial/ve
