Op vrijdag 24 maart aanstaande zal Prof. Amanda Perry–Kessaris (Kent Law School) de maandelijkse Leiden Socio-Legal Lecture verzorgen.

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.

My PhD project studies how the temporally sequential Hox gene expression is regulated during head-tail patterning of the frog embryo.

In analogy to mathematical proofs, the goal of a proof system is for a prover to convince a verifier of the correctness of a claim.

Less than 1 in 10 drug candidates that enter phase 1 clinical trials actually gets approved for human use.

Plants produce an astonishing variety of secondary metabolites (SMs) which are thought to play vital roles in the fitness of plants through ecological interactions.

Dit academisch jaar zal de Leiden Socio-Legal Series (LSLS) van start gaan! In deze reeks van 10 lezingen zal maandelijks een jurist(e) aan de hand van zijn of haar eigen onderzoek aangeven op welke wijze het rechtssociologisch perspectief – in theoretische en/of methodologische zin – daarbij een rol…

De eerste ILS Lunch Seminar van 2017 staat gepland voor maandag 30 januari. Tijdens de ILS Lunch Seminars kunnen alle onderzoekers van de faculteit hun onderzoek presenteren. Het doel is om op een toegankelijke en efficiënte manier op de hoogte zijn van onderzoeken van verschillende onderzoeksprogramma's…

The aim of this thesis is to present novel techniques for proving cryptographic schemes secure against quantum adversaries. Most results are within the context of an idealized model called the ‘quantum random-oracle model’.

Optical cavities are useful tools to enhance the interaction between light and matter, which is important to make good quantum emitters. However, it turns out that the cavities themselves (without any quantum emitters) are already interesting objects to study.

Schimmels die zich in vanilleplanten nestelen, spelen een rol bij het ontstaan van de smaak en geur van vanille. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek van Shahnoo Khoyratty van het Instituut Biologie Leiden. Promotie op 27 oktober.

In this thesis, we will utilize embryonic zebrafish tumour models to understand the interaction between engrafted human cancer cells and macrophages from the host, test drug administration modalities and anti-cancer efficacies of newly-developed PDT and PACT compounds, and test a light-triggered liposomal…

Does the presence of Ring-necked parakeets negatively influence feeding and feeding behaviour of native bird species on artificial bird feeders and if so, what are possible solutions?

Developing methodes to understand the evolution of patches in natural ecosystems

Planten kunnen zichzelf niet beschermen door van zich af te slaan met scherpe klauwen. Maar toch kan de plant voor hem levensgevaarlijke herbivoren afschrikken. Dat is mogelijk met geuren. Klaas Vrieling van het Instituut Biologie Leiden kwam tot de ontdekking dat evolutie een grote rol speelt om de…

How should jurisdictions, both on the national and on the supra-national level, handle the interaction between public and private law where it regards the regulation of financial markets?

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

In this thesis I describe the results of Pulsed Interleaved Excitation and Fluorescence (Cross) Correlation Spectroscopy (PIE-F(C)CS) combined with single-pair Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (spFRET) used to study dynamics in single nucleosomes, which depends on subtle differences in the length of…

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.

Pericytes, the mural cells of blood microvessels, are important regulators of vascular morphogenesis and function that have been postulated to mechanically control microvascular diameter through as yet unknown mechanisms.

De Universiteit Leiden biedt een specifieke masteropleiding die kolonialisme en slavernij behandelt.

We showed that constitutive and inducible chemical and morphological defenses against Western flower thrips differ between tomato and chrysanthemum plants.

This thesis focuses on two processes involved in fighting infections: metabolism and immune cell motility and navigation.

The studies in this thesis are focused on the physical effects in the flat band materials. The results contain the discovery of strong enhancement of RKKY spin-spin interactions with specific geometric arrangement and dynamical generation of excitonic order parameter with high magnitude.

In this thesis, I studied the origin and evolution of the non-thermal radiation in merging galaxy clusters.

Current therapies for patients with atherosclerosis are targeted primarily on reducing blood cholesterol, but this fails to prevent a large number of cardiovascular events.95 In order to identify new therapeutic strategies for treating atherosclerosis, it is important to study the interactions between…

In this book liposomes are explored as delivery system for allergen-specific immunotherapy. Both cationic and anionic formulations are prepared with Bet v 1, one of the allergens in birch pollen.

Het Sport Data Center doet onderzoek binnen vijf thema's.

The aim of this thesis was to develop novel treatment strategies for different types of eye melanoma utilizing zebrafish models. We first establish orthotopic and ectopic xenograft models for uveal and conjunctival melanoma by engraftment of the immortalized cells derived from these tumors into zebrafish…

In this work the reconstruction of a tau neutrino signal in the KM3NeT detector is discussed.
