Een openhartige Mark Rutte, een cabaretier als gastdocent en een alumnus die opklom tot museumdirecteur: deze artikelen werden het afgelopen jaar het meest gelezen.

De afgelopen tien jaar is ‘crisis’ de natuurlijke toestand van Europa geworden. De bankencrisis ging via de Eurocrisis naadloos over in de huidige vluchtelingencrisis. Waar men vroeger dacht dat Europese samenwerking automatisch steeds verder zou gaan (‘even closer union’), zetten mensen nu vaker vraagtekens…

Make more fluid: In condensed matter systems, electrons can acquire unusual properties from their interaction with the atomic lattice.

Effectiveness and Side-effects.

One of the major limitations in culturing complex tissues or organs is the lack of vascularization in the cultured tissue. Development of a functional capillary bed could overcome this problem.

During the course of drug discovery translational steps are made.

This thesis mainly focuses on multimodal understanding and Visual Question Answering (VQA) via deep learning methods. For technical contributions, this thesis first focuses on improving multimodal fusion schemes via multi-stage vision-language interactions.

Op 26 juni 2018 verdedigde Claire Achmad haar proefschrift 'Children’s Rights in International Commercial Surrogacy: Exploring the Challenges from a Child Rights, Public International Law Perspective'. Het promotieonderzoek is begeleid door promotor prof. mr. drs. M.R. Bruning.

Most of current public-key cryptography is considered insecure against attacks from sufficiently powerful quantum computers. Post-quantum cryptography studies methods to secure information resistant against such attacks. One proposal is isogeny-based cryptography, which bases its security on computational…

The Low Frequency Array enables studies of low-frequency carbon radio recombination lines with unprecedented sensitivity, spectral and spatial resolution.

Indonesia is experiencing various environmental challenges related to its fast economic growth. Therefore, it is necessary to have measurable and applicable indicators to obtain accurate data and information regarding the costs of adverse environmental impacts arising from economic activities to support…

This thesis consists of two subjects, that are both a consequence of radiation pressure.

Transport inspectorates are looking for novel methods to identify dangerous behavior, ultimately to reduce risks associated to the movements of people and goods. We explore a data-driven approach to arrive at smart inspections of vehicles.

This thesis concerns the relation bettween the good reduction of Shimura varieties and the associated loop groups.
