Abstract:

The Japanese labour market is analyzed within a dual labour market context and an emphasis on firm size differentiation. Labour market segmentation theories are presented for the purpose of understanding the differences that can exist between industries, or in this case, between firm sizes. Data on labour market variables such as wages, unionism, and promotion illustrates the different employment package that employees face in small firms as compared to workers in large companies. Unique Japanese labour market traits such as the expectation of lifetime employment, enterprise unionism, and seni

Abstract:

Real living cell is a complex system governed by many process which are not yet fully understood: the process of cell differentiation is one of these. In this thesis work we make use of a cell differentiation model to develop gene regulatory networks (Boolean networks) with desired differentiation dynamics. To accomplish this task we have introduced techniques of automatic design and we have performed experiments using various differentiation trees. The results obtained have shown that the developed algorithms, except the Random algorithm, are able to generate Boolean networks with interest

Such models rely on assumptions thatmay often be unrealistic and/or unveri_able, and in such cases nonparametric modelspresent an attractive alternative. Further, even when normality holds, researcherstend to underestimate the sample size required to accurately estimate disease preva-lence from bi-normal models when densities from diseased and non-diseased subjectsoverlap.

Abstract:

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) have the potential to provide patient and disease specific cells for research and act as therapeutic agents in unlimited supply. To translate lab-scale research toward clinical applications we need to reduce variability from complex differentiation protocols which often include xenogeneic components. A move toward more defined culture systems will improve predictability and process control as well as reduce risks of exposure to animal pathogens. Cell therapy development, also requires flexibility in scalability as cell numbers for therapies vary gre

Abstract:

Body size varies according to nutritional availability, which is of ecological and evolutionary relevance. The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that differences in adult body size are realized by increasing juvenile growth rate for white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Harvest records are used to construct growth rate estimates by empirical nonlinear curve fitting. Results are compared to those of previous models that include additional parameters. The rate of growth increases during the study period. Models that estimate multiple parameters may not work with harvest data

The main objective of the present thesis is to investigate the mechanisms underlying the age- and size-related decline observed in growth efficiency and in relative above ground mass growth rates in both Scots pine and poplar (clonal) chronosequences. Hence, I compared differentially aged Scots pine stands and trees growing at the same site, in contrast to most previous studies, isolating leaf- from stand-level responses. In addition, I used poplar clonal material to compare growth and morphological parameters of genetically identical cuttings taken from young, middle-age and old plants belong

This research seeks to advance our understanding of how to make better informed species conservation decisions on a global scale and advance our understanding of how species' spatial distributions (their geographic ranges) may be respond to climate change, so we can know which areas should be set aside to ensure their present and future conservation. To understand how species' geographic ranges may change, it's important to first assess how geographic ranges are defined and measured. The quantifiable measurement of a species' geographic range, (its geographic range size), is a key criterion th

Cellular processes critical to sustaining physiology, including growth, division and differentiation, are carefully governed by intricate control systems.

Local adaptation to climate in temperate forest trees involves the integration of multiple physiological, morphological, and phenological traits. Latitudinal clines for the relevant component traits are frequently observed for species that have a north-south distribution, but these relationships do not account for climatic variation within a given latitudinal band, which may be reflected in adaptive traits. We used black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa) as a model to characterize the interplay between geography, climate, and adaptation to abiotic factors. Twelve traits (height, diameter, volum

Abstract:

The fitness of any evolutionary unit can be understood in terms of its two basic components: fecundity and viability. The trade-offs between these fitness components drive the evolution of a variety of life-history traits in extant multicellular lineages. Here, I show evidence that the evolution of germ-soma separation and the emergence of individuality at a higher level during the unicellular-multicellular transition are also consequences of these trade-offs. The transition from unicellular to larger multicellular organisms has benefits, costs, and requirements. I argue that germ-soma separat

Abstract:

Felling of old trees as well as changes in land use and management of wooded pastures has led to the decline of biodiversity associated with old deciduous trees in Europe. This also applies to Sweden’s most species rich tree, the oak tree (Quercus robur), which changes with age and develops, for example, a rougher bark structure, deeper bark fissures and cavities. These give rise to several different microhabitats that favor the presence of lichens, mosses and wood-dependent organisms. To preserve the biodiversity, environmental conditions linked to a high diversity need to be identified and d

Abstract:

Why don’t crop plants grow as fast as they should? In optimal conditions, elite crop varieties routinely outperform those grown in the average field. The vast majority of this reduction in growth activity is due to abiotic stresses such as drought, heat, and nutrient limitation. Abiotic stress reduces plant growth by triggering a reduction of meristem size and causing premature differentiation of proliferating cells. Differentiated cells are no longer able to divide, and smaller meristems have a reduced capacity to restore growth when the abiotic stress passes. We have designed and evaluated a

The Highway Safety Manual (HSM) estimates roadway safety performance based on predictive models that were calibrated using national data. Calibration factors are then used to adjust these predictive models to local conditions for local applications. The HSM recommends that local calibration factors be estimated using 30 to 50 randomly selected sites that experienced at least a total of 100 crashes per year. It also recommends that the factors be updated every two to three years, preferably on an annual basis. However, these recommendations are primarily based on expert opinions rather than dat

The use of stem cells to differentiate into chondrocytes has been a possible solution to provides large number of differentiated chondrocytes. In this study, human adipose-derived stem cells (hASC) is

Abstract:

Widespread species that occupy continents and oceanic islands provide an excellent opportunity to study evolutionary forces responsible for population divergence. Here, I use multilocus coalescent based population genetic and phylogenetic methods to infer the evolutionary history of the common chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs), a widespread Palearctic passerine species. My results showed strong population structure between Atlantic islands. However, the two European subspecies can be considered one panmictic population based on gene flow estimates. My investigation of effects of sampling on concat

Abstract:

This study seeks to explore students’ subjective and collective experience of an experiential family therapy module within the Clinical Psychology Masters training programme. It looks at the perceptions of nine trainee therapists who used genograms and family sculpting to present their family of origin. The study takes place after the completion of the practical internship year with the purpose of exploring relevant emotional, cognitive, social and therapeutic effects of this module. A literature survey reveals that the use of genograms and family sculpting during training has received little

Abstract:

It has been more than two centuries since the latitudinal pattern of increase in taxonomic richness from poles to equator was first documented. After two centuries of research, and with more than two dozen hypotheses proposed, an understanding of the mechanisms underlying this pattern and their relative importance remains incomplete. Factors such as evolutionary history, area and latitude associated variables such as temperature, solar energy, climatic stability and seasonality are known to influence species richness by affecting geographic range size and location over ecological and evolution
