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

This dissertation contains four works during my PhD. Different biomaterials have been designed based on coiled-coil peptides. These biomaterials have a range of applications, inclusing drug delivery, cell sorting to cell-cell fusion.

In deze master specialisatie ligt de focus op het begrijpen van biologische processen in hun natuurlijke context, zoals cellen en weefsels.

Veel alumni staan nu in de frontlinie van de zorg en werken dag en nacht om duizenden coronapatiënten weer te genezen. Intensivist Michael Frank (53) is zo iemand. Als hoofd intensive care van het Albert Schweitzer Ziekenhuis in Dordrecht loodst hij zijn afdeling door de coronacrisis.

Het artikel gaat over de fysiologische herkenning van daderkennis en of dit ook gebruikt van worden om ware van valse bekentenissen te onderscheiden.

This PhD-thesis presents a study on micron-sized particles, so-called colloids. By controlling the chemical and physical properties of these particles, such as the interparticle interaction and the particles’ shape, colloids can act as building blocks that self-assembly into larger structures.

De DASPO-groep voor data-analyse en overleving in kanker aan het Mathematisch Instituut heeft een app ontwikkeld die persoonlijke prognoses verschaft voor patiënten met zachtweefselsarcoom. Door de agressieve aard van dergelijke tumoren is de prognose voor deze patiënten slecht, zelfs na een operatie…

Donderdag 2 Februari 2017 heeft Prof. dr. Janne Bengtsson van de 'Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences' in Uppsala een lezing gegeven met de titel:

How do local, non-institutional ideas about end-of-life care influence professional palliative care and vice versa? These questions will be answered by medical anthropologists Annemarie Samuels and Natashe Lemos Dekker in the coming years.

The major and ultimate aim of metabolomics is to obtain an answer to a specific biological or clinical question.

Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world. One of its symptoms is the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta.

The emergence of complex diseases resulting from abnormal cell-cell signaling and the spread of infectious diseases caused by pathogens are significant threats to humanity. Unraveling the dynamic mechanisms underlying cell-cell signaling and infectious disease spreading is crucial for effective disease…

Vitamin A or retinol is essential in embryonic development, the visual cycle and the immune system.

Biological polymers, including proteins and the genome, undergo folding processes crucial for their proper functioning. Even slight changes in the folding structure of these biopolymers can have significant implications, leading to the development of various pathological conditions, such as neurodegenerative…
