Onderzoeken en ontwerpen zijn twee vaardigheden die steeds belangrijker worden in de vakken O&O (onderzoeken en ontwerpen) en NLT (natuur, leven en technologie). Uit onderzoek van Tessa Vossen (ICLON en Faculteit Wiskunde en Natuurwetenschappen) blijkt dat docenten en leerlingen de relevantie van onderzoeken…

De ontwikkeling en versterking van sociale rechten en rechten van arbeiders in Indonesië weerspiegelt de bredere processen van sociale en politieke hervormingen in het land.

De nationale quantumcursus maakt de wereld van de allerkleinste deeltjes toegankelijker voor iedereen. Quantumexpert Julia Cramer is het gezicht van de cursus en was bij de lancering. En wat is daarvoor een betere plek dan Madurodam - waar alles klein is?

In surface science there is great effort to move from studying simple, flat model surfaces in vacuum to investigating more complex model catalysts in gas environments (in situ). This thesis gives three examples of such studies using microscopy and spectroscopy.

‘Als je Open Science in de praktijk wilt doorvoeren, moet je minstens bij elke faculteit iemand hebben die onderzoekers op een laagdrempelige manier kan helpen met praktische problemen.’ Dorien Huijser begeleidde twee jaar de transitie naar de nieuwe manier van werkenbij het Brain and Development Research…

De masteropleiding Politics, Culture and National Identities, 1789 to the Present van de Universiteit Leiden brengt je in de voorhoede van de nieuwe benadering van de manier waarop in Europa politiek en identiteit worden opgevat.

De masterspecialisatie Politics, Society and Economy of Asia van de Universiteit Leiden is gericht op studenten die één of meer landen of regio’s van modern of hedendaags Azië willen bestuderen vanuit het perspectief van de sociale wetenschappen.

Veel studenten fietsen elke dag voorbij de bedrijven van het Bio Science Park, maar wat gebeurt daar eigenlijk achter de deuren? En ligt er bij deze bedrijven ook een toekomst voor studenten zelf na hun afstuderen? De Bio Science Park Excursie geeft antwoord op deze vragen.

This thesis focuses on the study of transient and variable radio sources in the universe.

This dissertation consists of two parts, each of which considers a different research area related to random interval maps. In the first part we are interested in random interval maps that are critically intermittent.

Sewer pipes are an essential infrastructure in modern society and their proper operation is important for public health. To keep sewer pipes operational as much as possible, periodical inspections for defects are performed.

This thesis presents the results of a study on the interfaces of insulating oxides with and without the insertion of a magnetic layer.

The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics fails to explain several observed phenomena and is incomplete. In order to resolve this problem, one may extend the SM by adding new particles.

To an algebraic curve C over the complex numbers one can associate a non-negative integer g, the genus, as a measure of its complexity.

In this thesis, we study travelling waves in stochastic reaction-diffusion equations. We extend techniques from the deterministic theory for travelling waves to apply to the stochastic version, which allows us to compute the stochastic wave speed and shape, and draw conclusions on the stability of the…

This thesis is based on five papers on several topics.
