In this thesis, I investigated the neurogenetic properties of Neotropical bat species. Bats represent the second largest mammalian order (Chiroptera) in the world, with Neotropical bats constituting about 13% of the total number of bat species.

Natuurlijk is Jan Melissen trots op de publicatie van zijn nieuwe boek. Toch blijft een pijnlijke herinnering hangen: door Amerikaanse inmenging moest hij het hoofdstuk over citizen diplomacy, diversiteit en inclusie noodgedwongen verwijderen. ‘Het heeft wel wat met mij gedaan.’

This work describes the use of click-to-release chemistry to get spatiotemporal control over immunocytokine activity. Until now, immunocytokines (cytokines coupled to a tumor-targeting-moiety) remained active throughout the body, being able to bind their respective receptors, causing mild to severe…

In this Yearbook you will find some fascinating examples of what was done in 2021, not only by ourselves, but also by our international colleagues.

Pectin is a plant cell wall polysaccharide made of mainly D-galacturonic acid (GA) subunits. The potency of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger to naturally secrete high amounts of pectinases to degrade pectin has been utilized for the industrial production of pectinases.

In dit project wordt onderzocht hoe onderzoek in de leeromgeving (Research Based Learning of RBL) studenten kan stimuleren om zelf onderzoek te gaan doen. Ook wordt gekeken naar het effect van RBL op het vermogen van studenten om kritisch te denken en op hun academische vaardigheden.

This thesis describes the use of bioorthogonal proteins in immunological settings. It provides an introduction towards the field of protein modification, which was used throughout the thesis for the expression of proteins containing unnatural amino acids.

In recent decades, climate change has led to more frequent and severe drought events, causing serious consequences such as increased forest mortality and significant crop yield losses. Understanding how drought affects plants, especially economically important herbaceous species, is crucial for predicting…

My PhD project studies how the temporally sequential Hox gene expression is regulated during head-tail patterning of the frog embryo.

The AT-Hook Nuclear Localized 15 (AHL15) gene belongs to a plant-specific gene family of DNA-binding proteins. Overexpression of AHL15 in Arabidopsis thaliana delays developmental phase transitions whereas its loss of function causes a slight acceleration.

In this thesis, we address two problems concerning the tautological rings of the moduli space of curves.
