Harm Beukers, Leids emeritus hoogleraar Geschiedenis van de geneeskunde, krijgt de Japanse Orde van de Rijzende Zon met gouden stralen.

Does roadside management in the mid-west USA increase invertebrate diversity similar to practices in Europe?

Het Europa Instituut van de Universiteit Leiden is één van de oudste academische instellingen gespecialiseerd in het recht van de Europese Unie en het Europees Verdrag inzake de Rechten van de Mens.

This dissertation consists of two parts, each of which considers a different research area related to random interval maps. In the first part we are interested in random interval maps that are critically intermittent.

The main research question of this thesis was: Can nitrogen cycling on dairy farms on peat soil in the Dutch Green Heart area be improved by adapting management to the nitrogen supply from soil and by using other grassland species and crops without affecting milk production?

De Universiteit Leiden heeft onderzoeksinstituten gevestigd in Leiden en Den Haag.

The parabolic Anderson model (PAM), which is the Cauchy problem for the heat equation with random potential. The PAM is a mathematical model that describes how mass (i.e. matter or energy) flows in a medium in the presence of a field of sources and sinks.

Our recent excavations have focused on the more recent New Kingdom/Late Period (ca. 1500-332 BCE) material.

Novel entities may pose risks to humans and the environment. The small particle size and relatively large surface area of micro- and nanoparticles (MNPs) make them capable of adsorbing other novel entities, leading to the formation of aggregated contamination.

Sound is everywhere in the marine environment and hearing is therefore a very important for stimuli for fish. They use sound for orientation and communication, during migration, aggregation and spawning, but also for detection of prey and predators.

How soil microbial composition impacts structure and composition of the aboveground plant and animal communities?

Can we develop a platform for raw materials intelligence?

The thesis describes terrestrial field trials aimed to detect side-effects of pesticides within the framework of pesticide registration procedures. Field trials were developed using vascular plants Brassica napus and Poa annua, caterpillars Pieris brassicae and effects on decomposition were studied…

This thesis provides explicit expressions for the density functions of absolutely continuous invariant measures for general families of interval maps, that include random maps and infinite measure transformations, not necessarily number systems.

We have studied shape with a particular focus on the zebrafish model system. The shape is an essential appearance of the phenotype of a biological specimen and it can be used to read out a current state or response or to study gene expression.

The external tissues of plants and animals are colonized by microbial communities termed microbiota. When organisms are exposed to environmental pollutants, these substances will therefore encounter microbiota at the exposure interface.

In this work, we illustrate unconventional approaches towards the fabrication of edge functionalized graphene nanostructures and bidimensional architectures in polymeric and metallic supports, with an outlook towards molecular sensing devices.

Al het onderzoek van de Universiteit Leiden is georganiseerd in instituten. Om recht te doen aan de veelkleurigheid van het onderzoek (en dus ook aan het onderwijs) dat daar uit voortvloeit vindt u op deze pagina’s omschrijvingen van alle Leidse instituten.
