De interdisciplinaire minor De (on)rechtvaardige samenleving geeft een verdiepende en toegepaste kijk op sociale rechtvaardigheid in Nederland. Dat doen we door het thema vanuit verschillende invalshoeken te belichten en door samen met jou als student actief aan de slag te gaan met concrete maatschappelijke…

On dinsdag 26 september heeft Jessica Hill haar proefschrift ‘On the road to adulthood. Delinquency and desistance in Dutch emerging adults’ verdedigd. Promotor is Professor Arjan Blokland.

This thesis describes how complex and real-world relevant analytical solutions can be found starting from a simple Nagumo problem posed on one or two-dimensional lattices.

Dissociative chemisorption is an important reaction step in many catalytic reactions.

What invertebrates live in the fields and edges? Do the populations change with landscape complexity?

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?

Like a mixture of oil and water, lipid membranes separate into two liquid phases.

DNA carries various forms of information. Out of these forms of information the most well-known is classical genetic information.

Het Leiden Advocacy Project on Plastic (LAPP) is een pro bono initiatief aangaande juridische vraagstukken omtrent plastic. LAPP is opgericht om het toenemende probleem van plasticvervuiling aan te pakken en onderzoek te doen naar juridische kwesties gerelateerd hieraan. Studenten werken hierbij als…

Can we distinguish the effects of pesticides from other abiotic and biotic factors that occur in the field? And how do these factors interact with pesticides?

The research presented in this thesis makes use of small molecules (as H2 , D2 and O2 ) on well-defined single crystal surfaces (flat Pt(111), flat Cu(211) and curved Pt(111)) to elucidate the role of surface structure and degrees of freedom in the reactant in specific surface reactions.

What is the best way to combine the environmental and economic data and how can we create an operational system to do so, thereby supporting the delivery of data to the Data centres on Products and Resources?

The dissertation describes TEM experiments on heterogeneous catalysts.

Does a mid-season fire impact invertebrate populations?

In this thesis we study bistable reaction-diffusion equations on lattice domains.

The main topic of this PhD thesis is the Arakelov ray class group of a number field, an algebraic object that contains both the ideal class group structure and the unit group structure.

Collected Cases on EU Labour Law (eerste druk) is onlangs verschenen bij Eleven International Publishing.

This project, South American population history revisited: multidisciplinary perspectives on the Upper Amazon (SAPPHIRE), investigates population dynamics in western South America on the basis of traces in the geographical, genetic, archaeological, ethnological, and linguistic record.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the most abundant class of organic compounds in space. The PAH field evolves from the constant interaction between experimentalists, theorists, modellers and observers. While laboratory research and quantum chemical calculations together set up the molecular…

This Thesis focuses on the design and synthesis of ADP-ribosylated compounds that can be applied in biological studies.

Feedback van medestudenten op schrijfwerk is net zo leerzaam als die van docenten.

My PhD research is devoted to studies of the conjectural cluster-algebraic symmetry in the theory of topological string, which is the simplest, however already non-trivial sector in the theory of string.

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.

This thesis describes the role of pollution, specifically neonicotinoid insecticides, as an actor of the ongoing biodiversity decline.

Op 21 november 2018 verdedigde Lieke Kools haar proefschrift 'Essays on wealth, health, and data collection'. Het promotieonderzoek is begeleid door promotoren prof. dr. K.P. Goudswaard en prof. dr. C.L.J. Caminada.

Shape and biological function are tightly connected. Physical descriptions are used to connect the shape of a biological system with its function.

This thesis deals with properties of Jacobians of genus two curves that cover elliptic curves.
