In vitro disease models play a fundamental role in drug research. They enable the systemic identification and validation of disease mechanisms and the discovery of possible drug targets. However, more than often, drug candidates that are identified in vitro fail in the later clinical stages of drug…

Since its beginnings, Leiden University has been home to scholars with a broad and diverse expertise in the histories, languages, literatures and material cultures relevant to the study of Jews and Judaism from antiquity to modern times.

Unconstrained day-to-day activities are difficult to quantify and how the corresponding movements shape the brain remain unclear. Read more

Een band opbouwen met een pleegkind, waarom is dat zo lastig?

Cyberaanvallen, privacygerelateerde problemen of storingen in het functioneren: veel technologieën die dagelijks worden gebruikt, kennen beveiligingsproblemen die worden opgelost als de software al in gebruik is. Een interdisciplinair project, waarin Olga Gadyatskaya, Harry Wijshoff, Alex Uta en Kristian…

De video ‘Going Beyond Gender’ laat zien hoe divers de ervaringen en achtergronden van vrouwen zijn en hoe deze diversiteit van invloed is op hun kansen en carrièrepaden binnen de wetenschap. De hele video is in en rondom het KOG en het Academiegebouw geschoten en de vijf hoofdrolspelers werken of…

Ontwikkelen kinderen die opgroeien in een jihadistisch of rechtsextremistisch huishouden dezelfde extremistische denkbeelden als hun ouders?

CONSENT (Consumer sentiment regarding privacy on user generated content services in the digital economy) is a research project funded by the European Union under the 7th Framework Programme. The question central to this research is whether recent changes to consumer and commercial practices developed…

Het Instituut Bestuurskunde van de Universiteit Leiden is één van de grootste en oudste instituten voor academisch onderzoek en onderwijs op het gebied van Bestuurskunde in Nederland en is gevestigd in Den Haag.

Op dinsdag 10 januari 2022 zijn tijdens de facultaire nieuwjaarsreceptie de jaarlijkse Meijersprijzen en de scriptieprijzen uitgereikt.

Science is typically a patchwork of research contributions without much coordination. Especially in clinical trials, the follow-up studies that we do fail to be the most promising.

It is a common technique in global optimization with expensive black-box functions to learn a surrogate-model of the response function from past evaluations and use it to decide on the location of future evaluations.

A novel mathematical model describes spatial-temporal drug distribution within one or more brain units, which are cubic representations of a piece of brain tissue with brain capillaries at the edges.

This thesis aims to enhance our understanding of galaxies by testing theoretical models of galaxy formation against observations, particularly in the cases of extreme systems which have been found to have an excess of baryonic mass in their central regions, in the form of either supermassive black holes…

Indicators to measure progress in de-linking economic growth and environmental pressure.

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 aimed to investigate the impact of exposure dynamics, relative contributions of ENPs(particle) and ENPs(ion), and dosing regimens on the toxicity of ENPs varying in different physico-chemical properties, on the composition and functioning of soil microbial communities.

A substance flow analysis, covering about 99 % of the flows of chlorinated substances in the Netherlands.

In surface science there is great effort to move from studying simple, flat model surfaces in vacuum to investigating more complex model catalysts in gas environments (in situ). This thesis gives three examples of such studies using microscopy and spectroscopy.

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

There is an urgent need for more physiologically relevant cell culture methods to guide compound selection in pre-clinical stages of the drug development pipeline.

Leiden University and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management are involved in a collaboration in the form of a research project titled 'Data-Driven Risk Assessment in Infrastructure Networks'

Pharmaceutical companies, governments and the general public have become increasingly aware that animal models used in drug testing lack vital aspects to serve as an accurate representation of human biology. As models of the human body should become more physiologically relevant, animal models no longer…

The focus of the described research in this thesis is on the oxidative stress response (Nrf2 pathway). The aim of the research presented in this thesis is to obtain more information concerning microRNAs which are involved in the Nrf2 pathway, to determine and evaluate the application of microRNAs for…

Natural resources often stretch across borders that separate modern nation states. This can create conflict and limit opportunities for regulated consumption of their goods and services, but also provide opportunities for joint multinational efforts that exceed single country capabilities.

With increasing carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere and their detrimental effect on the global climate, modern society needs to push for more renewable energy sources. Storing widely accessible and abundant solar energy in chemical bonds in the form of molecular fuel via artificial photosynthesis…

An important part of the SCS specialisation is the internship period. Students will get the opportunity to get to know the field and to apply what they have learned during the courses.

Which traits and/or trade-offs determine benefits of being deciduous or evergreen?

To gain more insight into the evolutionary development of orchid flowers and fruits, the orchid species Erycina pusilla was studied. The evolutionary origin of the median petaloid sepal, the callus on the labellum, and the stelidia was studied.

Onderzoekers stellen in ‘Science’ dat het Proto-Indo-Europees ongeveer 8.120 jaar geleden ontstond in een gebied ten zuiden van de Kaukasus. Universitair docent Guus Kroonen vindt dat onwaarschijnlijk, zo stelt hij in NRC.
