This thesis described the development of novel scanning tunneling microscopy techniques to investigate strongly correlated electronic states in quantum matter.

In de masterspecialisatie Global Ethnography heb je de unieke kans om onafhankelijk etnografisch onderzoek in Nederland of in het buitenland uit te voeren. Je kiest een thema naar keuze of aansluitend op een van de lopende onderzoeksprojecten van onze onderzoekers.

Het project is gefinancierd door SoFoKleS en mede mogelijk gemaakt door steun vanuit en samenwerking met de Universiteit Utrecht en verschillende partijen binnen de Universiteit Leiden.

Eveline Crone is lang niet de enige professor puberbrein op het internationale FLUX-congres. Leiden was vier dagen lang het centrum van onderzoek naar hersenontwikkeling. Opvoeders en beleidsmakers ontmoetten wetenschappers tijdens het publiekssymposium op 18 september.

het Instituut Pedagogische Wetenschappen verzorgt verschillende bacheloropleidingen, de academische Pabo, een pre-masterprogramma en de masteropleiding Education and Child Studies.

In dit project wordt het volledige ecosysteem van Middelnederlandse gebedenboeken onderzocht om vragen te beantwoorden over de rol die deze speelden in – en invloed die deze hadden op – religie, cultuur en samenleving in de laatmiddeleeuwse Lage Landen.

This thesis describes the development and validation of new high-contrast imaging techniques, with the ultimate goal of enabling the next generation of instruments for ELT-class telescopes to directly image Earth-like extra-solar planets orbiting around nearby stars.

In this thesis, we aimed to better understand the underlying mechanisms involved in TNBC progression and metastasis formation and discover new targets to reduce breast cancer related deaths.

The field of exoplanet research is rapidly advancing through the development of new technology, observing techniques, and post-processing methods.

Plant architecture has distinct forms in different plant species, but also within a species the finalarchitecture of a plant is determined by its gradual development and changes therein induced by environmental conditions during the plant’s life cycle.

We developed the bitterling as a unique, well-studied model organism in the area of the evolutionary ecology of brood parasitism. The bitterling-mussel relationship, interspecific mussel host preference, and mussel gill structure are studied in detail, to help understand the developmental adaptation…

Wij bestuderen de dagelijkse praktijk van individuen, groepen en gemeenschappen - zowel in Nederland als wereldwijd - om ze te plaatsen binnen de complexe processen van sociale en globale ontwikkeling. In Leiden zijn we gespecialiseerd in de gevolgen van globalisering op het gebied van milieu, sociale…

In today's volatile market environments, companies must be able to continuously innovate. In this context, innovation does not only refer to the development of new products or business models but often also affects the entire organization, which has to transform its structures, processes, and ways of…

Machine Learning is becoming a more and more substantial technology for industry.

Antibiotic resistance, caused by widespread use of antibiotics, leads to bacterial infections that are difficult, if not impossible, to treat and is a major worldwide health concern.

Cholesterol influences many pathways, including serving as precursor for adrenal steroidogenesis. Imbalance of cholesterol levels has been implicated in several diseases including cardiovascular diseases and its underlying pathology, atherosclerosis.

In this thesis, mathematical modeling and simulation was applied as a tool to inform quantitative decision making in oncology drug discovery and development.

This thesis describes the functional analysis of the Arabidopsis AHL15 gene.

The main focus of the thesis is the discovery and development of novel inhibitors of bacterial metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs).

Leiden University College The Hague (LUC) biedt een 3-jarige bacheloropleiding aan waarin je je focust op Global Challenges; grote uitdagingen waar de mensheid mee te maken heeft: Vrede & Rechtvaardigheid, Diversiteit, Duurzaamheid en Welvaart. Je hebt ruimte om de opleiding zo in te richten als je…

The goal of the project is the development of stream mining techniques for complex patterns such as graphs. We will try to extend the existing state-of-the-art techniques into two, orthogonal directions: on the one hand, the mining of more complex patterns in streams, such as sequential patterns and…

One of the main challenges in the development of an effective anti-cancer vaccine is the generation of an adequate and directed cellular immune response.

The main goal of the research described in this thesis was the development of new photoactivated chemotherapy (PACT) ruthenium(II) complexes bearing a non-toxic photolabile ligand.

Optimization tasks in practice have multifaceted challenges as they are often black box, subject to multiple equality and inequality constraints and expensive to evaluate.

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.

This thesis explores different avenues to develop insurmountable antagonists for CC Chemokine Receptors, such as CCR1, CCR2 and CCR5.

The growing demand of energy indicates that global energy resources in the form of fossil fuels will not be sufficient in the future. In order to solve potential future energy problems development of a sustainable hydrogen economy is highly desirable.

The aim of this project was to estimate emissions from lead products-in-use for the past, the present and the future and assess the development of toxicological risks associated with these products.
