Zit je in havo of vwo 3, 4 of 5 op De Kager in Leiden en ben je benieuwd naar hoe signalen, algoritmes en online cultuur jouw gevoelens en keuzes beïnvloeden? Wil je bovendien weten hoe onderzoek bij Psychologie aan de Universiteit Leiden werkt? Doe dan mee aan deze korte cursus “Aantrekkingskracht…

Na tientallen jaren waarin autocratieën in de meeste internationale organisaties werden gemarginaliseerd, hebben de opkomst van China, de steeds autocratischer wordende wending in Rusland en het toenemende belang van machten als hybride regimes geleid tot een nieuwe realiteit waarin diverse niet-liberale…

Computers worden steeds krachtiger en krijgen steeds ingewikkelder taken. Het Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) doet baanbrekend wetenschappelijk onderzoek en past nieuwe vindingen toe in actuele maatschappelijke vraagstukken.

During the development of the (human) body from a single fertilized egg, organs and structures must form. The development and growth of biological forms is called morphogenesis.

This dissertation revolves around the design and implementation of novel instrumentation and related measurement techniques, at the single molecule level, for use in biophysical research. Chapter 1 presents an introduction to the field of fluorescence-based single molecule measurements. In particular,…

The Vallesian, 11.1-9 Ma, was a special time in the Vallès-Penedes basin near Barcelona, where a biodiversity hotspot existed. Europe had a subtropical climate, with rhinos, forest giraffes, lions, hyenas, flying squirrels and primates.

This thesis is about the study of hydrocarbons via infrared spectroscopy.

Even though more than 4000 extra-solar planets are known today, only a small fraction of these has been captured in an image. To better understand the planet formation mechanisms in solar-like environments we started the Young Suns Exoplanet Survey (YSES).

This thesis explores the theoretical and observational properties of distant massive galaxies that harbour active black holes in their centres and shine brightly at radio wavelengths.

The subject of this thesis, ‘Approach to Markov Operators on Spaces of Measures by Means of Equicontinuity’, combines an analytical and probabilistic approach to Markov operators.

LLInC ondersteunt innovatief en hoogwaardig onderwijs, binnen de Universiteit Leiden en in samenwerking met onderwijs- en maatschappelijke organisaties.

Tracing the evolution of the molecular gas content in galaxies is critical for a complete understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, as it provides the direct fuel for star formation. Studies of high-redshift (z>1) molecular gas reservoirs, most commonly traced by carbon monoxide (CO), have seen…

Overall dispersion in LCA as result of inherent uncertainties, spread and unrepresentativeness.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) constitutes a small subtype (~15%) of breast cancer, but causes the majority of breast cancer-related deaths.

Actinobacteria are well known for the production of bioactive natural products, many of which have applications in the fields of human, animal and plant health. Subject of this thesis are the anthracyclines, glycosylated aromatic polyketides with potent anticancer activity.

Low-mass main-sequence stars like our Sun are continuous sources of outflowing hot magnetised plasma. In the case of the Sun, this is known as the solar wind, whereas for other stars they are called stellar winds.

Glycosidases (GHs) are enzymes responsible for the degradation of carbohydrates and play many roles in human health and pathophysiology. Often, abnormal levels of glycosidase activity are markedly linked to human pathologies.

Plants are colonized by an astounding number of microorganisms that can provide different life-support functions, including nutrient acquisition and protection against (a)biotic stresses like drought or pathogen attack.

This thesis utilises the exceptional sensitivity and resolution of LOFAR to explore the low-frequency Universe, while simultaneously advancing the telescope's capabilities to enable new scientific discovery.

Anthropogenic noise negatively affects wildlife in a wide range of taxonomic groups.

The formation and evolution of galaxies is fundamentally driven by the formation of new stars out of cold gas.

Het BOCA-project verkent nieuwe vormen van het communiceren van academische kennis als een manier om de band tussen de universiteit en de samenleving te versterken.

The present thesis focuses on the pharmacological concept of drug-target interaction, which dates back to the beginning of modern pharmacology.

Op vrijdag 28 november vierde de Universiteit Leiden haar brede palet aan onderzoek en onderwijs tijdens een uniek lustrumevenement. We brachten samenwerking tussen wetenschapsgebieden, en tussen onderzoekers en samenleving, een stap verder.
