The type-IV secretion system (T4SS) is a machinery able to transfer DNA and proteins between bacteria and in certain cases also to eukaryotic cells.

Met behulp van straling kan de isotopenverhouding van een skelet worden bepaald. Dit geeft informatie over de locatie waar onze voorouders leefden en wat zij consumeerden. Dr. Andrea Waters ontwikkelde een revolutionaire methode, waarmee het voedingspatroon van tienduizenden jaren geleden kan worden…

Dit onderzoek geeft inzicht in de toepassingspraktijk van de voorlopige hechtenis bij jeugdige verdachten. Voor het eerst is door middel van een dossierstudie in kaart gebracht wat de kenmerken zijn van deze populatie jeugdigen en hoe deze kenmerken zich verhouden tot de rechterlijke besluitvorming…

Als forensisch gezinspedagoog kun je gezinsproblemen en ontwikkelingsproblemen bij kinderen en adolescenten in een forensische context signaleren en diagnosticeren.

The focus of this thesis is how stars like our Sun and planets like Jupiter, Saturn, and Earth are formed.

Bacteria often experience external challenges, such as changes in environmental conditions or attacks by bacteriophages.

The power of personalized nutrition lies in being able to conduct clinical research on healthy people while capturing metabolic markers sensitive to the impact of environmental and metabolic stressors (e.g. diet, changing sex hormones and the menstrual cycle).

With the help of quantum mechanics, digital quantum hardware may be able to tackle some of the problems that are too difficult for ordinary computers. But despite these expectations and the ongoing effort of the research community, reliable quantum computers are not yet realized in a lab setting.

In this thesis, we extend the concept of null models as canonical ensembles of multi-graphs with given constraints and present new metrics able to characterize real-world layered systems based on their correlation patterns.

In today's volatile market environments, companies must be able to continuously innovate. In this context, innovation does not only refer to the development of new products or business models but often also affects the entire organization, which has to transform its structures, processes, and ways of…

In order to be able to develop effective medicine and treatments to prevent or cure autoimmune diseases or cancer we need to understand the mechanisms how they arise and what drives their course.Unravelling the fundamental molecular mechanisms influencing the onset and course of diseases such as allergies,…

Producing green energy has become the main goal in our society in the search of reducing or eliminating the carbon emission from fossil fuels.

Several single-stranded RNA viruses make use of Xrn1-resistant RNAs in their 3’ untranslated regions of their genome RNAs in order to increase their pathogenicity.

The different kinds of cultural perspectives on health and disease of the participants are related to their knowledge, beliefs, values and practices manifested in various forms of lifestyle in Indonesia. The cultural diversity of the population is also related to differences in health behaviour.

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…
