Commerciële bedrijven die gebruik willen maken van de expertise en faciliteiten worden doorverwezen naar LAB , de commerciële eenheid die verantwoordelijk is voor gespecialiseerd laboratoriumwerk.

Politicologen Rebekah Tromble en Michael Meffert (Universiteit Leiden) analyseren waarom sommige media frames aanhouden, terwijl andere frames snel in de vergetelheid geraken. Zij ontwikkelen een methode die is ontleend aan event-history. De casus die Tromble en Meffert bekijken, is de verslaglegging…

The main objective of this thesis was to develop clinically relevant survival models for patients with high-grade soft tissue sarcoma of the extremities, in particular the development and validation of prediction models for use in clinical practice.

What are the behaviours of plant traits throughout various points in the growing season in a radiative transfer model framework and how well can this knowledge be integrated through data assimilation to provide priors for robust local and global vegetation products and analysis?

How to ensure the environmental and economic benefits of circularity transition at macro-scale?

The expanding population and economic activity are driving up global energy consumption. Simultaneously, there is an urgent need to transition from fossil fuels to renewable sources to mitigate the climate crisis, primarily caused by fossil fuel combustion.

Viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) is a group of acute diseases caused by highly infectious viruses including Ebola, Lassa, Dengue viruses. Its high mortality rate poses high risk to public health, however, studies on VHF have been hampered due to the non-availability of proper models and incomplete knowledge…

To limit the effects of climate change, global average temperature since pre-industrial measurements are to be kept well below 2 °C preferably even at 1.5 °C.

This thesis aims to address offshore wind energy (OWE)-related environmental impacts.

Material circularity and energy efficiency are highly relevant and intertwined issues for the transition towards a carbon-neutral and circular built environment. In the Netherlands, the building sector has been rendered a priority towards a circular and low-carbon society.

Jaarlijks keren er in Nederland ongeveer 33.000 ex-gedetineerden terug in de maatschappij waarvan rond de 1.500 plegers zijn van ernstige gewelds- en zedenmisdrijven. Hoewel het grootste deel van deze herintredingen zonder veel commotie verloopt, gaan enkele gevallen gepaard met grote maatschappelijke…
