title: Attentive Glimpse as Retrieval Associate: Components of Objects' Shape Property-Shape Cue and Recognition Proficiency, 2012

description: The project "Attentive Glimpse as Retrieval Associate: Components of Objects' Shape Property-Shape Cue and Recognition Proficiency, 2012" is designed to address the issue of which components of objects' shape property-shape cue produce most proficient shape, thus object recognition in (1) vision, and (2) touch. Indeed; which components of objects' shape property-shape cue are familiar when changing over from vision to touch? The project contains six experiments divided into visual and tactual sub-experiments. This project aims to obtain added knowledge on how rehabilitation programmes for newly blinded individuals are tailored to every one individual. In addition to added knowledge on how several precursors aimed at pre-cuing may supplement each other, how components of objects' shape property-shape cue are kept familiar to newly blinded individuals, and on how precursors aimed at pre-cuing and aids for the visually impaired may supplement each other. The project may contribute to enhancing the interest for and research within the field of rehabilitation, and bring about developing of material utilised in precursors aimed at pre-cuing, thereby rehabilitation programmes for newly blinded individuals.

title: The Social Meaning of Children. Reproductive Choice, Gender and Social Class, 2012

description: The inability of the western world to reproduce its population is expected to have dramatic consequences for the future; the conception of a "fertility crisis" has entered the public debate of many countries. By contrast, individual women and men may regard the possibility to choose to have fewer children as a means to freedom and self-empowerment. Understanding personal rationales in relation to reproductive choice thus is a pressing issue. To understand the new fertility trends we need a closer focus on men's values and priorities, and on gendered relationships and processes. Class differeces in fertility patterns also need more attention. Processes on various analytical levels are relevant for the choice to have or not to have children, when to have them, and the number of children.

title: Linguistic Identity and Attitudes in Spanish-speaking Latin America, 2013

description: The LIAS-project (Linguistic Identity and Attitudes in Spanish-speaking Latin America) aims to study attitudes towards Latin-American Spanish and how they form the linguistic identity of its speakers. Linguistic attitudes result from a complex interplay of social forces and express how language serves individual and collective interests. Norwegians are aware of the imporance of linguistic identity, and national debate often leads to new policies for language use. This has not been the case with Latin-American Spanish. An Euro-centered norm has been followed and legitimated in the governmental apparatus, especially in education, but there are signs of change. This comparative project will study how Latin Americans identify with their linguistic variant, their loyalty to it, and the social prejudice, acceptability or stigma associated with it. This research-based knowledge is essencial for policy makers, business, industry, NGOs, translators, teachers, scholars and students in any communication exchange with Latin America. The LIAS-project is the first study of attitudes towards Latin-American Spanish following the same methodology and including all the Spanish-speaking region, Madrid and Miami. The results of a pre-project (NFR-190213/S50) assure the feasibility of this large scale project and the committment and professional knowledge of highly qualified researchers to carry out the large data-gathering work and subsequent analysis. The pre-project has found a great interest for linguistic attitudes judged by the amount of local studies carried out with different methodologies and small samples. The LIAS-project aims to work with a global perspective and common methodology. Its findings will be presented locally and internationally, in scholarly articles,in a book and on a website. Master and PhD students in Norway, Latin America and elsewhere will be able to use the project data in their work for many years to come.

title: Integrated Health Risk Management for Urban and Peri-Urban Wastewater Irrigation - (1/5) Entomological data, 2013

description: Worldwide about 2 million hectares of agricultural fields are irrigated with wastewater. The practice of wastewater use is particularly pronounced in the urban and peri-urban areas of developing and emerging economies. Wastewater use in urban agriculture can serve as a common denominator for the transmission of diarrhoeal, helminth and malaria diseases if not undertaken in a safe manner. This project aims to assess the contribution of informal urban wastewater irrigation to both pathogenic and mosquito vector related disease risks. The specific objectives were: 1. To assess if there is any relationship between irrigation water quality (including pathogens) and mosquito vector population density in wastewater irrigated fields; 2. To identify informal wastewater irrigation practices associated with increased risk of diarrhoeal, helminths and malaria disease risks; 3.To estimate the fraction of diarrhoeal, helminths and malaria risks attributable to urban wastewater irrigation. To address these objectives, a multidiciplinary study involving entomology, microbial and physico-chemical analysis, socio-demographic surveys, epidemiological surveys and quantitative microbial risk assessment was undertaken. All investigations were carried out in the Kumasi Metropolitan Area, Ghana. The project is divided into five parts. This dataset includes data from "Integrated Health Risk Management for Urban and Peri-Urban Wastewater Irrigation - (1/5) Entomological data, 2013".

title: Spatiotemporal Regulation of cAMP Signalling in Health and Disease, 2015

description: Signalling networks involving the signal molecule cAMP and protein kinase A (PKA) are involved in regulation of a multitude of body functions involving most organ systems of the body. An emerging principle is that function of the cAMP signal pathway in these settings requires subcellular anchoring of the components of the pathway and that anchored pools of kinase are vital for function. The list of cAMP regulated functions is long and implicates this signal pathway in some of the major health problems including, but not restricted to cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, obesity, chronic infection and cancer. However, no systematic approach has explored the therapeutic potential in targeting anchored cAMP signal pathways diseases with dysregulated cAMP signalling. Current and on-going work in the group is aimed at understanding the complex pathways of cAMP signalling which involves a number of PKA isozymes, a diversity of phosphodiesterase enzymes (PDEs) that degrade cAMP, and a number of other components such as A kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) implicated in localization of enzyme complexes. The number of AKAPs has been estimated to more than 75 of which 50 have been identified to date. Secondly, understanding signalling via localized pools of cAMP, the spatiotemporal resolution which is tuned by PDEs, and how such cAMP gradients target anchored PKA bound to AKAPs is an area of focus. Lastly, understanding of how cAMP signalling networks in the cell cross-talk with and integrate into the complex web of signal pathways in the cell is explored. The lab has interest in cAMP immunomodulation with application in immunodeficiency and anti-tumour immunity as well as hormonally regulated physiological and pathophysiological processes. We will generate models to target cAMP signalling pathways, unravel new genes to be characterized, identify targets, and provide proof of principle experiments vs. human diseases using specific disease models.
