Terrorisme destabiliseert regeringen, ondermijnt de burgermaatschappij, bedreigt sociale en economische ontwikkeling, brengt democratie in gevaar en heeft een directe impact op mensenrechten. De buitengewone gebeurtenissen op 9/11 veranderden terrorismebestrijding in een wereldwijd bestuursproject.…

The deeper understanding of an organism's pathology is important for developing treatments. Over centuries of systematic research, clinical researchers have demonstrated that the more information they acquire about the cellular properties and their organisation in the tissue, the better they can understand…

De Nederlandse fysicus Jaap Kistemaker slaagde er in 1952 voor de eerste keer in om uranium te verrijken.

Heeft jouw opleiding een keuzeruimte van maar 15EC? Dan kun je een aangepast programma van de minor De middeleeuwen en de vroegmoderne tijd volgen, dit noemen we 'Keuzeruimte'.

Planets are formed in disks of gas and dust around young stars.

In human cells, a meter-long DNA is condensed inside a micrometer-sized cell nucleus. Simultaneously, the genetic code must remain accessible for its replication and transcription to functional proteins.

Endothelial dysfunction and microvascular diseases are key drivers of cardiovascular disease, the world's leading cause of death.

To contribute to the body of knowledge aiming at a better coverage of ecosystem service assessment in LCA studies, this thesis dives into the challenges of incorporating existing ecosystem service methods within the impact assessment phase of the conventional LCA framework.

The field of exoplanet research is rapidly advancing through the development of new technology, observing techniques, and post-processing methods.

This research delves into a region of space known as the interstellar medium (ISM), which is essentially the area between the stars filled with gas and dust.

Cardiovascular disease is a major global burden and atherosclerosis is the main underlying pathological process.

By training with virtual opponents known as computer generated forces (CGFs), trainee fighter pilots can build the experience necessary for air combat operations, at a fraction of the cost of training with real aircraft.

Many galaxy clusters exhibit bright diffuse radio emission that traces the underlying structure of the intracluster medium (ICM).

Het onderzoek in de cluster Algebra, meetkunde en getaltheorie slaat bruggen tussen abstracte theorie en de wereld van algoritmen en toepassingen.

This thesis is about augmented reality (AR). AR is commonly considered a technology that integrates virtual images into a user’s view of the real world.

We explored the Universe using weak gravitational lensing, a phenomenon that occurs when light from distant galaxies is bent by the gravitational fields of closer cosmic objects, much like how a lens distorts light.

The stratum corneum is the outermost skin layer and consists of dead cells embedded in a lipid matrix.

Growth hormone profiles are pulsatile and highly variable between individuals, limiting the implementation of mathemathical models to quantify an individual's secretion.

DNA carries various forms of information. Out of these forms of information the most well-known is classical genetic information.

Galaxies in the local Universe fall into two main categories of spirals and ellipticals. In this Thesis, we explore the structural evolution of galaxies into this bimodal distribution.
