In multi/many-core System-on-Chips (SoCs), the performance is almost linearly scaling with the number of processing elements.

Promotor: V. Vitelli, Co-promotor: J. Paulose

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

Advanced mass spectrometry of glycosphingolipids takes the central stage in this thesis. Investigations focus on characterization of glycosphingolipid metabolism in health and disease with emphasis to the detection and accurate quantitation of known and so far unknown glycosphingolipids and closely…

To study how planetary systems come into existence we study much younger systems still in formation.

This thesis is about augmented reality (AR). AR is commonly considered a technology that integrates virtual images into a user’s view of the real world.

Promotor: W. Jaffe, Co-promotor: K. Meisenheimer

In dit project gebruiken we sociale netwerkanalyse om het gedrag van gebruikers op online fora en bijbehorende marktplaatsen in de tijd te analyseren.

Het doel van het RAISE Onderzoek is om te onderzoeken hoe veerkrachtige mensen omgaan met stress. We kijken specifiek naar hoe belangrijke biologische systemen, zoals de HPA-as en het immuunsysteem, samenwerken met de hersenen en de sociale omgeving om veerkrachtig functioneren na moeilijkheden in de…

We consider the propagation of electrical signals through nerve fibres.

This work describes the use of click-to-release chemistry to get spatiotemporal control over immunocytokine activity. Until now, immunocytokines (cytokines coupled to a tumor-targeting-moiety) remained active throughout the body, being able to bind their respective receptors, causing mild to severe…

The research aims to explore the evolutionary adaptability of enzymes and the impact of temperature on protein evolution pathways, using M. tuberculosis β-lactamase BlaC as the object of study. Enzymes inherently embody a delicate balance between activity and stability, and the acquisition of new enzymatic…

Throughout the history of computer science, a major challenge has been how to assert that software is free of bugs and works as intended. Software bugs can lead to serious negative impacts on any software system. Throughout the main body of the thesis, we implemented a series of studies on exploring…

Elk jaar reikt het Leids Universitair Studentenplatform (LUS) de Leidse Onderwijsprijs uit.

This thesis studies the geometry of representation varieties and character stacks. These are spaces parametrizing the representations of a finitely generated group, typically the fundamental group of a compact manifold, into an algebraic group G.

Bij eLaw verzorgen we een aantal vakken voor de master Jeugdrecht en voor de master International Children's Rights (Advanced LL.M.)

Heb jij je al ingeschreven voor Groene Peper?

Maar liefst zeven eerstejaarsstudenten van de Faculteit Wiskunde en Natuurwetenschappen zijn als jonge talenten in de prijzen gevallen. Daarnaast lauwerde de Koninklijke Hollandsche Maatschappij der Wetenschappen ook drie masterstudenten en een Sterrenkundeproject tijdens een bruisende uitreikingsmiddag…

Dit jaar eindigt de Universiteit Leiden op de achtste plaats in de SustainaBul, de duurzaamheidsranking van universiteiten en hogescholen in Nederland. Vorig jaar stond de Universiteit Leiden nog op de 18de plaats.

Een infrastructuur voor onderzoeksdata in computationele sociale wetenschappen

Science is typically a patchwork of research contributions without much coordination. Especially in clinical trials, the follow-up studies that we do fail to be the most promising.

What are the global relationships between environmental conditions and abundance of distinct types of mycorrhizal fungi in soil and plant roots?

While ecosystems have concrete benefits for human society, these benefits are typically overlooked in decision-making.

This dissertation takes an important step in understanding the phenomenon of non-take-up of social support and what it means for contemporary social policies.

The bacterial cell wall is a nearly universal structure that offers protection and gives the cell its shape. However, environmental stressors, such as cell wall-targeting antibiotics and hyperosmotic conditions, can induce bacteria to shift to a wall-deficient state. It is unknown whether the lack of…

The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics states that a measurement collapses a wavefunction onto an eigenstate of the corresponding measurement operator.

Promotores: H.W. Lenstra, K. Belabas (University of Bordeaux)

Leiden University and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management are involved in a collaboration in the form of a research project titled 'Data-Driven Risk Assessment in Infrastructure Networks'

Soil is a home for an unbelievable diversity and abundance of microbial life that is essential for supporting life on our planet.

In het academisch jaar 2023-2024 biedt het interdisciplinaire onderzoeksprogramma Sociale Veerkracht en Veiligheid vier vakken aan voor studenten die beginnen met het derde jaar van hun bachelor. Deze vakken zijn te volgen binnen de ruimte voor keuzevakken. Je kunt de vakken afzonderlijk als keuzevak…

Assessing the risks of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) solely on the basis of experimental assays is time-consuming, resource intensive, and constrained by ethical considerations (such as the principles of the 3Rs of animal testing). The adoption of computational toxicology in this field is a high p…

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…

In this thesis it is posed that the central object of preference discovery is a co-creative process in which the Other can be represented by a machine. It explores efficient methods to enhance introverted intuition using extraverted intuition's communication lines.
