High-contrast imaging polarimetry of exoplanets and circumstellar disks
Understanding the formation and evolution of planetary systems is one of the most fundamental challenges in astronomy. To directly image and study young exoplanets and the circumstellar disks they form from, dedicated high-contrast imaging instruments are built.

Combining classic and novel tools in the study of Historical Collections of Chinese Materia Medica in the Netherlands
Chinese materia medica (CMM), comprising a diverse array of natural substances from plants, animals, and minerals, has been integral to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) throughout history. This study investigates the dynamic evolution of CMM, noting shifts in species for improved therapeutic effects…

Extremely loud & incredibly far: observing radio bright AGN into the cosmic dawn
In this thesis new methodologies are developed for the detection and systematic study of radio sources in the early universe. This allows us to gain a deeper understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxies, the activity of supermassive black holes, and the final phase transition of our universe:…

Evolutionary diversification and historical biogeography of Orchidaceae in Central America with emphasis on Costa Rica and Panama
In this thesis, I targeted the orchid genus Lepanthes, one of the six genera of angiosperms that surpasses 1,000 species in the Neotropics, as a study model to investigate the evolutionary processes that promoted species diversifications.

Measuring gold molecular gas across cosmic time
Tracing the evolution of the molecular gas content in galaxies is critical for a complete understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, as it provides the direct fuel for star formation. Studies of high-redshift (z>1) molecular gas reservoirs, most commonly traced by carbon monoxide (CO), have seen…

Development of a Kidney-on-a-Chip Model for Compound Screening and Transport Studies
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…

Arguably augmented reality : relationships between the virtual and the real
This thesis is about augmented reality (AR). AR is commonly considered a technology that integrates virtual images into a user’s view of the real world.

Nieuwe planten produceren zonder zaaien
Zonder een gewas opnieuw te zaaien toch nakomelingen produceren, die zelfs groter kunnen zijn dan de ouderplant. Volgens Leidse onderzoekers is dat mogelijk door het overstimuleren van één gen. Daarmee verjongt een cel en gaat deze terug naar de embryonale fase.

Levensverlengend gen bij planten ontdekt
Oogst na oogst binnenhalen van rijstveld, zonder nieuwe rijstplanten te zetten? Door een ontdekking komt dit scenario misschien wel dichterbij. Leidse wetenschappers hebben een gen ontdekt waarmee ze eenjarige planten na het bloeien opnieuw laten groeien, in plaats van dat de planten sterven. Publicatie…

Slangengifklieren in het lab gekweekt
Voor het eerst hebben onderzoekers uit Utrecht, Leiden, Amsterdam, Liverpool en Maastricht mini-orgaantjes van slangengifklieren in het lab gekweekt. De groepjes cellen kunnen gifmoleculen produceren. Dit is een belangrijke stap om slangenbeten beter te behandelen. Publicatie in toptijdschrift Cell…

‘Onbelangrijk’ plantengen blijkt wel degelijk essentieel
Leidse biologen hebben aangetoond dat een gen dat aanwezig is in planten, dieren en gisten wel degelijk een belangrijke rol speelt in planten, al werd daar jaren anders over gedacht. Zonder het gen blijkt de ontwikkeling van vaatweefsel in planten niet goed op gang te komen. Publicatie in Nature Plants…
