In 2018, the number of mobile phone users will reach about 4.9 billion. Assuming an average of 5 photos taken per day using the built-in cameras would result in about 9 trillion photos annually.

The progressive loss and degeneration of dopaminergic neurons is a major pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD). The onset and progression of PD can be triggered by multiple risk factors, for instance, genetic mutation, environmental exposure, and aging.

Decarbonizing the building stock is critical for realizing the climate-neutral target for the Netherlands.

Improvements of weak gravitational lensing shape measurements are presented and some used for data analysis.

In astronomy, the interpration of observations and measurements plays a crucial role: we rely purely and fundamentally on the information that reaches us as observers. And 80% of all matter in the universe is undetectable directly.

The demand for neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnets is rapidly growing, while the neodymium supply chain is under pressure. Recycling can alleviate these issues. This thesis investigates the potential for deploying novel magnet recycling technologies and their environmental consequences.

This course explores international arbitration as one of the most common methods of international dispute settlement. You will gain an in-depth understanding of international arbitration through the analysis of its role as a mechanism of dispute settlement, its institutions, the fields of law it is…

De masteropleiding Media Studies van de Universiteit Leiden combineert theoriekennis met praktijkervaring om zo een ideale springplank te vormen voor een carrière in de literatuur, film, fotografie of journalistiek.

This thesis focuses on the development of sample-preparation methods for small amounts of samples and applying the developed methods to muscle tissues to investigate the mechanisms involved in sarcopenia.

In dit project denken we na over de relatie tussen territorium en besmetting. Door de historische, politieke en conceptuele verbanden te traceren tussen territoriale grenzen en migratie aan de ene kant en ziektegerelateerde fenomenen zoals besmetting, immuniteit en inenting aan de andere kant, vragen…

The major and ultimate aim of metabolomics is to obtain an answer to a specific biological or clinical question.
