Time-resolved imaging spectroscopy. Variations in fluorescence can then be measured simultaneously in a large population of cells. Thus subtle, adaptive responses can be used for the first time as genetic markers in screening for mutation impairing adaptations. Krassimir Alexciev, John Allen, Paul Davison. In vitro culture and transformations.
Genetic transformation is carried out using particle bombardment and Agrobacterium tumefasciens .
Vectors are made with antisense constructs in order to study protein function, including heat-shock proteins and molecular chaperones. Using cell fusion and gene transfer, new possibilities are created for fundamental studies of gene regulation and recombination. Lund stands at the centre of Northern Europe , and is a beautiful city in the finest part of Sweden , but this is a personal view.
