SAMRISK-Samfunnssikkerhet og risiki

The Social Determination of Risk: Critical Infrastructure and Mass Transportation Protection in the Norwegian Civil Aviation Sector

Risk is implicitly related to human values. It reflects a certain understanding of human life, of individual and collective hopes and fears, of expectations about what might be lost and what is worth keeping, about what one is willing to sacrifice, and in deed about what one is willing to fight o...

Exploring the T cell receptor genome - the next generation cancer immunotherapeutics

We will generate recombinant T cell receptors (TCRs) that recognize cancer cells. DNA encoding the receptors forms basis for novel drugs for immunotherapy of cancer. Two strategies are followed to select T cells with the desired receptors: 1) T cells that recognize telomerase have been isolated ...

Olfactory pathways connecting defined glomeruli of the macroglomerular complex to higher integration centres in the heliothine moth brain

The olfactory coding mechanism responsible for reproductive behaviour have been thoroughly investigated in heliothine moths. This sub-family is particularly fascinating since the individuals communicate both within and across the species. Thus, the males possess receptor neurons detecting pheromo...
