...antisense oligonucleotides, aptamers and small interfering RNAs, and many others are in the pipeline for both academia and industry. A major technology trigger for this development has been progress in oligonucleotide chemistry to improve the drug properties and reduce cost of goods, but the main hurdle...

...place of death varied between countries with different health and social service systems. This was done by investigating typical groups (concerning age, sex and end-of-life trajectory) of older people dying in different places in Finland and Norway. Methods: The data were derived from national registers...

Time-lapse (4D) seismic is an essential tool for monitoring the subsurface in and around producing hydrocarbon or CO₂ storage reservoirs. The seismic time-shifts, in the reservoir as well as in the overburden, depend on the stress changes and strains induced by the subsurface depletion or the inflation. In this...

...diagnostic assessment and neurosurgery of gliomas. Materials and Methods Eleven patients with suspected primary or recurrent low- or high-grade glioma received an 18F-FACBC PET/MRI examination before surgery. PET and MRI were used for diagnostic assessment, and for guiding tumor resection and histopathological...

...demographic properties, travel behavior and last mile practices among e-commerce users. The study shows several correlations between travel behavior and last mile practices: users who prefer home delivery tend to travel less and are distinguished by fewer shopping trips and less car use.Home delivery is typically...

This study looks at the challenges and opportunities in the deep energy renovation market with prefab elements. An analysis of 39 European projects was conducted, and the results where structured in three topics. It clearly emerges from this analysis that finding the “composition” of the recipe of a...

Many safety and security co-analysis methods have been proposed to assure the safety of critical systems, including autonomous systems. One example of safety and security co-analysis approach is Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) plus STPA-Sec. When using STPA combined with STPA-Sec, the security...

...all modes - road (i.e. autonomous cars), aviation (i.e. drones), shipping and rail are coming. Regulation and testing are on-going in Norway. Risks of autonomous systems are uncertain due to missing data, emerging technology and variation in framework conditions. However, ac-cidents of autonomous cars...
