Cancer chess: molecular insights into PARP inhibitor resistance
The clinical potential of applying synthetic lethality to cancer treatment is famously demonstrated by the BRCA1/PARP1 paradigm: a tumor specific defect in BRCA1 – a component of the DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway homologous recombination (HR) – results in a remarkable sensitivity to PARP1…

Juridische oordeelsvorming in het aansprakelijkheidsrecht en financieel toezicht
Het vertrekpunt van dit onderzoek is de bevinding dat het menselijk brein vatbaar is voor allerlei denkfouten en vooringenomenheden (biases), die onze percepties kleuren en onze redenaties beïnvloeden, zonder dat we dit bewust doorhebben. Integendeel, mensen hebben veelal het gevoel dat zij slechts…
