Het Leiden Institute for Advanced Computer Science is vanaf januari 2019 onderdeel van het RISE_SMA project. Bij dit Europese project zullen 6 universiteiten zich samen met bedrijven, overheden en NGO’s inzetten om inzicht te krijgen in social media data tijdens crisissituaties. De kick-offmeeting vond…

In het onderzoek “Zwijgen over seksueel misbruik” kijken we naar hoe het gaat met mensen die seksueel misbruik hebben meegemaakt en daar nog nooit over gesproken hebben (m.u.v. eventueel een hulpverlener).

Climate change is a challenge for both current and future generations. New biological resources have to be developed in order to meet the demand for energy as well as the demand for food.

This thesis consists of two main parts. The first part (Chapters 2 and 3) deals with a class of Markov process called Quasi-Skipfree (QSF) processes.

Synthetic hydrogels that mimic the natural extracellular matrix in the biophysical and biochemical cues it provides to cells are in high demand, however the cell phenotypes as they are observed in vivo in numerous cases have yet to be attained.

What is movements and corridors of the Bornean pygmy elephant in Sebuku forest? What is the nature of human-elephant conflict in Nunukan District in time and space? What are the diets of the Bornean elephants related to crop raiding?

Hieronder vind je de antwoorden op een aantal veelgestelde vragen over toelating tot de klinische specialisaties van de Master Psychologie.

Migration and Mobility in the Early Roman Empire by Luuk de Ligt and Laurens E. Tacoma (Eds.)

Zelden trokken bevolkingsgroepen zich zo sterk terug in hun eigen bubbel als nu. Rechtssocioloog Maartje van der Woude gaat met haar studenten onderzoeken wat social distancing doet met de onderlinge verhoudingen. Hoe kijken Leidenaren in coronatijd bijvoorbeeld aan tegen studenten en inwoners met een…

Naast Plexuslocatie nu ook Kaasmarktschool.

Taking as a point of departure the Italian American community in Boston and its process of collective remembrance surrounding Saint Anthony’s Feast, we addressing the limits and potential of montage.

This thesis presents the first synthetic peptides ADP-ribosylated on serine, threonine, tyrosine, arginine and cysteine.

Multicellular giant algae Chara species have been widely used in physiological studies for decades.

In this thesis, classes of strongly interacting quantum field theories, have been studied.

Overheden investeren enorme bedragen in hun digitale dienstverlening. Het doel van effectiviteit en efficiency wordt echter niet voor alle mensen gehaald.

The Dutch atlas with pesticides concentrations in surface waters have been overhauled. This new, free accessible, website is in line with the European Framework Directive on Water (In Dutch: KRW).

Punten verdienen voor je gedrag. Wie zijn je vrienden en betaal je je rekeningen op tijd? De Chinese regering wil in 2020 een sociaal kredietsysteem invoeren. De inwoners van China krijgen daarin plus- en minpunten toegewezen voor hun kredietachtergrond, het nakomen van contracten, maar ook voor hun…

Anthropogenic noise negatively affects wildlife in a wide range of taxonomic groups.

In this thesis, we describe the latest advances in SQUID-detected Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM).

The deeper understanding of an organism's pathology is important for developing treatments. Over centuries of systematic research, clinical researchers have demonstrated that the more information they acquire about the cellular properties and their organisation in the tissue, the better they can understand…

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), one of the largest families of membrane proteins, are responsive to a diverse set of physiological endogenous ligands including hormones and neurotransmitters.

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

Bacteria have the ability to alter their morphology in order to adapt to changing environments.

In this thesis, we have studied the potential of the zebrafish larval model in studying the ECS, as a complementary model to the existing rodent models.

The European Council and the European Commission have a similar role in agenda setting. Both place issues on the EU agenda. However, these institutions have distinct designs. They have different political attributes (the European Council has considerably more political authority) and information-processing…

Surface plasmons (SPs) are surface waves at the interface between a dielectric and a good metal, and are formed by the interaction between light and the free electrons at the metal-dielectric interface. They provide strong field confinement for optical fields, opening new possibilities for enhanced…

Acute cardiovascular clinical events such as myocardial infarction and cerebral stroke represent the major cause of death in Western societies. These pathologies are primarily resulting from atherosclerosis, a progressive condition characterized by the accumulation of lipids, immune cells, and fibrous…

What physics controls the properties of quantum matter, such as how electrons flow inside high-temperature superconductors? This question has captivated the physics community and industry for decades, in part due to the great technological potential such materials have, but also because they have resisted…

Acute cardiovascular syndromes, including myocardial infarction or stroke, are the principal cause of death in the Western society. The main underlying pathology of cardiovascular diseases is atherosclerosis, which is caused by the accumulation of lipids and inflammatory cells in the vessel wall, in…
