A longitudinal EEG study of visual motion perception in full-term and preterm infants and children
(Master thesis, 2024)High-density electroencephalogram (EEG) was utilized longitudinally to study brain electrical activity in 10 full-term and 10 preterm participants at 4 months, 12 months, and 6 years of age, by investigating visual motion ... -
A novel approach for transcriptomic mapping of cortical astrocytes and neurons upon sustained local noradrenergic neuromodulation
(Master thesis, 2024)Noradrenalin (NA) er en essensiell nevromodulator for normal hjernefunksjon. Den viktigste kilden til noradrenalin (NA) i hjernen er Locus Coeruleus (LC), plassert i hjernestammen. NA frigjøres fra LC-nevroner gjennom både ... -
A novel approach to study the impact of reduced brain noradrenergic neuromodulation on transcriptome changes of cortical neurons and astrocytes
(Master thesis, 2024)Noradrenalin (NA) er eit viktig stoff som bidreg til å oppretthalde normal hjernefunksjon. NA er involvert i eit vidt spekter av funksjoner, mellom anna overgangar mellom ulike nivå av aktivitet i hjernen. Den viktigaste ... -
A Statistical Physics Approach to Modelling the Joint Activity of Cortical Populations
(Master thesis, 2021)In this thesis we apply likelihood maximization methods as well as mean-field approximation to construct equilibrium and non-equilibrium Ising models for neural activity in the form of calcium imaging recordings. Before ... -
Adapting Advanced Cellular Models to Patient-Specific Cells for Studying Neurodegenerative Disease
(Master thesis, 2023)Mangelen på en kur for nevrodegenerative sykdommer som amyotrofisk lateral sklerose (ALS) stammer delvis fra mislykkede forsøk på overføring av potensielle medisiner fra dyremodeller til pasienter. I tillegg gjør de genetiske ... -
Advanced neuroengineering for studying the structure-function dynamics in healthy and perturbed neural networks
(Master thesis, 2023)The dynamics of the nervous system are characterized by the intricate interactions among precisely arranged multiscale neural networks, arising from the innate capacity of the system for self-organization and adaptation ... -
Anatomical organization of visuomotor projection pathways in mouse cortex
(Master thesis, 2019)The cortical visual system in rodents can be divided into primary visual cortex (V1), also called striate cortex, and surrounding secondary visual areas comprising V2, also known as extrastriate cortex. Though once thought ... -
Assessing the Efficacy of Metacognitive Therapy for Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms
(Master thesis, 2021)Milde traumatiske hjerneskader forårsaker symptomer som hodepine, søvnforstyrrelser, kognitiv dysfunksjon, deprimert humør og irritabilitet. For de fleste pasienter forsvinner disse symptomene etter ~ 3 måneder, men for ... -
Assessing the Electrophysiological Functionality of Place Cells in TDG-depleted Hippocampus
(Master thesis, 2023)Når dyr utforsker nye omgivelser, dannes det romlige minner som oppdateres med erfaring og hentes frem igjen ved gjeneksponering for det samme miljøet. Koordinert modifikasjon av synaptisk styrke mellom de parahippocampa ... -
Brain and behavioural timing in an interception task involving looming danger in preterm and full-term children at school-age: A high-density EEG study
(Master thesis, 2021)Through high-density electroencephalogram (EEG), the present study investigated brain responses and timing of prospective responses to a looming stimulus in preterm and full-term children at 6 years of age. A visual paradigm ... -
Burnout among Norwegian junior athletes Tittel - Undertittel Identifying the unique and collective contributions of the coach-athlete working alliance, psychological resilience and perceived stress
(Master thesis, 2019)Junior athletes have to invest years of training to reach elite level, facing not only high physical demands but also high psychological stress load. Prolonged exposure to stress may eventually lead to the experience of ... -
Cajal-Retzius cells and their influence on the neurotrophin signaling pathway in the hippocampal microcircuit
(Master thesis, 2024)Cajal Retzius (CR) celler er en midlertidig populasjon av nevroner hovedsakelig lokalisert i kortikale hjerneområder, inkludert hippocampus, avgjørende for kortikal utvikling. Til tross for deres vedvarende tilstedeværelse ... -
Characterization of a GRAB-based ATP Sensor in the Mouse Cortex and Hippocampus
(Master thesis, 2022)Abstract will be available on 2022-12-31 -
Characterization of neuron-glia interactions in zebrafish telencephalon using electrophysiology and calcium imaging
(Master thesis, 2021)Glial cells have been known as bystanders for many years. However, recent studies have revealed that besides neurons but also glial cells are essential for brain functions and neurological diseases. In fact, glia-neuron ... -
Characterizing input to VIP interneurons in the entorhinal cortex
(Master thesis, 2021)The entorhinal cortex (EC) is the major input and output structure between the hippocampal formation (HF) and the rest of the brain. Here, as is the case in the rest of the cortex, there are 2 main types of cortical neurons: ... -
Characterizing the newly generated CamKIIα-Tdg-/- mouse model
(Master thesis, 2023)Tymin DNA glycosilase (TDG) er et enzym som har en viktig rolle i genom reparasjon via fjerningen av T/G uoverensstemmelser. Nyere forskning viser at TDG også har en aktiv rolle i DNA demetylering, noe som tilsier at den ... -
Characterizing the Role of Serotonergic Neurons in Chronic Stress Resilience
(Master thesis, 2019)Gjentatt og langvarig stresseksponering øker risikoen for utvikling av angst- og stemningslidelser, som utgjør en betydelig del av dødsfall som kunne vært forebygget og uførhet globalt. Serotonergiske (5-HT) nerveceller, ... -
Co-culture of humanized Apolipoprotein E astrocytes with primary entorhinal cortex neurons from adult mice and hippocampal neurons from embryonic rats
(Master thesis, 2022)The Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) 4 gene is the strongest genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). The ApoE 3 is the most common allele, but the ApoE 4 allele, occurring in 15% of the population is found in ... -
