Tumor-associated blood vessels are a major component of the tumor microenvironment because of their important role in supplying the tumor cells (TC) with nutrients and being the border for metastatic spread. Endothelial cells (EC) of blood vessels communicate with TC through direct interactions via Notch signaling. Our group could show that activated Notch1 receptors are […]

A multiple-systems theory of category learning proposes that an explicit, verbally-mediated system learns rule-defined (RD) categories categorization rules, and a procedural, nonverbal system learns new non-rule-defined (NRD) categories for which there is no easily verbalizable rule. Executive Function (EF) is a broad term that brings together cognitive processes like selective attention, inhibition, and reasoning, plays […]

Plant diseases damage crops in both yield and quality. Outbreaks of plant diseases can cause huge losses to crops, threatening food security globally. It is of great importance to study plant immunity and understand how plants respond to pathogen attacks in nature. My recent work in the model plant Arabidopsis identified a mutation in a […]

Over the last few decades, the air transport industry in Sweden has been altered and deregulated in such a way that the industry is now completely fueled by competition. Indeed, airline pilots now face drastically different working conditions that are cause for concern due to the nature of these changes, and their resulting safety risks. […]
