(IEEE, 2019)A simple, cost-effective, and high-throughput method of patterning an optical fiber facet using template stripping to transfer a gold pattern to a UV-curable hybrid polymer is presented. The template stripping transfer method is demonstrated with ... -
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Physical Sciences, 2018-10)The polarization of electromagnetic waves (the direction of transversal vibration of its electric field vector) provides essential information about the emitting sources and scattering objects. Its measurement, i.e., optical polarimetry, has a history ...

(Springer Nature, 2017-05-24)Endometriosis is a heritable hormone-dependent gynecological disorder, associated with severe pelvic pain and reduced fertility; however, its molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here we perform a meta-analysis of 11 genome-wide association ...
-
(2023-06)OBJECTIVES: Erosive hand osteoarthritis (EHOA) is a severe subset of hand osteoarthritis (OA). It is unclear if EHOA is genetically different from other forms of OA. Sequence variants at ten loci have been associated with hand OA but none with EHOA. ...

(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-08-14)Human longevity is heritable, but genome-wide association (GWA) studies have had limited success. Here, we perform two meta-analyses of GWA studies of a rigorous longevity phenotype definition including 11,262/3484 cases surviving at or beyond the age ...
-
(2021-02-18)Bell’s palsy is the most common cause of unilateral facial paralysis and is defined as an idiopathic and acute inability to control movements of the facial muscles on the affected side. While the pathogenesis remains unknown, previous studies have ...
-
(IOS Press, 2016-09-13)The changes in the state of a geophysical medium before a strong earthquake can be found by studying of 3D seismic velocity images constructed for consecutive time windows. A preliminary step is to see changes with time in a minimum 1D model. In this ...
-
(MDPI AG, 2020-07-24)Cultural sites are particularly important to Indigenous peoples, their identity, cosmology and sociopolitical traditions. The benefits of local control, and a lack of professional resources, necessitate the development of planning tools that support ...
-
(2023-10-17)OBJECTIVE: To investigate methotrexate safety and influence of dose on efficacy outcomes in combination with three different biological treatments and with active conventional treatment (ACT) in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: This post-hoc ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, 2020-10)Crangonyx islandicus is a groundwater amphipod endemic to Iceland. Genetic analysis suggests that the species has been diverging in Iceland for at least 4.8 Myrs indicating it has survived in a subglacial refugia as Iceland was repeatedly covered by ...
-
(MDPI AG, 2019-09-18)One of the main objectives for astrobiology is to unravel and explore the habitability of environments beyond Earth, paying special attention to Mars. If the combined environmental stress factors on Mars are compatible with life or if they were less ...
-
(2022-04-04)The identification of reliable biomarkers, such as amino acids, is key for the search of extraterrestrial life. A large number of microorganisms metabolize, synthesize, take up and excrete amino acids as part of the amino acid metabolism during aerobic ...

(Viðskiptafræðideild og hagfræðideild Háskóla Íslands, viðskiptafræðideild Háskólans í Reykjavík og Seðlabanki Íslands, 2017-06-30)This critical literature review begins by giving a short introduction to the microfinance industry. Microfinance institutions (MFIs) are explained and an account is given of their dual performance goals of financial performance (‘financial sustainability’) ...
-
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2019-09-10)Pressurised meltwater has a major impact on ice dynamics, as well as on sedimentary and deformational processes occurring below/in front of glaciers and ice sheets, but its role in glaciotectonic processes is yet to be fully understood. This study ...
-
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-10-28)Mutations in the microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (Mitf) gene can cause retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and retinal dysfunction and degeneration. We examined retinal and RPE structure and function in 3 month old mice homo- or heterozygous ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, 2023-03-30)Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer today, with approximately 2.3 million new cases for the year 2020. Regardless of gender, these diagnoses represent 11.7% of all cases. For women, breast cancer falls under roughly one-third of cancer ...
-
(Elsevier Ltd., 2014-02)The miR-451 was found to be frequently down-regulated in tumors, indicating that miR-451 could play an important role in carcinogenesis. This study uncovered the mechanism by which the miR-451 functions as a tumor suppressor. The target genes of miR-451 ...
-
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-06)In the last decades, several endangered breeds of livestock species have been re-established effectively. However, the successful revival of the Dutch and Danish Landrace goats involved crossing with exotic breeds and the ancestry of the current ...
-
(2022-06)Microsatellites are polymorphic tracts of short tandem repeats (STRs) with one to six base-pair (bp) motifs and account for around 3% of the human genome. Just like copying by hand a text where the same word occurs many times in a row, the replication of ...
-
(Wiley, 2020-01-21)Using density functional theory, we studied the bulk and surface properties of Li and Na electrodes on an atomistic level. To get a better understanding of the initial stages of surface growth phenomena (and thus dendrite formation), various self-diffusion ...
