The function of TLRs in innate immunity has aroused worldwide attention soon after its discovery. Because of the broad functions of TLR2 in innate immunity, the drive for the development of TLR2-targeted vaccines or therapeutic treatments has accelerated in the last decades.

Supramolecular polymers are class of materials that are formed by non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, π-π interactions, electrostatic interactions and the hydrophobic effect.

This thesis describes the design and development of subunit‐selective inhibitors of particular catalytically active subunits of human constitutive proteasomes and immunoproteasomes.

Stochastic resetting is simple enough to be approached analytically, yet modifies stochastic processes in a non-trivial way.

In this dissertation iron-based homogeneous catalysts were synthesized, characterized and investigated for water oxidation activity.

In multi/many-core System-on-Chips (SoCs), the performance is almost linearly scaling with the number of processing elements.

In condensed matter systems electron-electron interactions, negligible in everyday metals, can dramatically alter the electronic behavior of the system. Examples of such altered behavior include high-temperature superconductivity and modulation of the electron density.

Plastics have become an integral part of modern society due to their versatility and durability.

The growing demand of energy indicates that global energy resources in the form of fossil fuels will not be sufficient in the future. In order to solve potential future energy problems development of a sustainable hydrogen economy is highly desirable.

The global transition toward low-carbon energy systems and the rapid expansion of digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, are reshaping how modern societies produce, move, and process energy and information.

Een apotheker adviseert patiënten en medezorgverleners over optimale farmaceutische patiëntenzorg. Bij de master Farmacie in Leiden leer je dit zowel in de praktijk tijdens de coschappen als binnen het cursorisch onderwijs op de universiteit.

In Navigatie Lab Leiden doen we onderzoek naar ruimtelijke cognitie. We volgen hierbij 3 thema’s: navigatievermogen, ruimtelijke vaardigheden, en nieuwe technieken

Voordat je jezelf arts kunt noemen, moet je eerst de driejarige master Geneeskunde afronden. Hierin breng je de kennis die je in de bachelor opgedaan hebt in de praktijk. Op die manier kun je je ontwikkelen van starter tot een beginnend beroepsbeoefenaar.

The mission of our group is understanding how science communication works to improve the interaction between science and society. We believe better science communication can improve our society and engage many different groups with science, also improving science.

Artin L-functions associated to continuous representations of the absolute Galois group G_K of a global field K capture a lot of information about G_K as well as arithmetic properties of K.

Artificial photosynthesis has recognised potential to produce green and sustainable fuels from earth-abundant resources such as water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and sunlight.

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an important bulk chemical that is used in various industrial processes. More than 95% of the H2O2 used in industry is made via the anthraquinone process during which a large amount of energy is going to waste.

The research provides insight into disease behavior in both rural and semi-urban areas in Serengeti in Tanzania.

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.
