Onderzoeksgroepen in het Biological & Soft Matter onderzoeksprogramma ontrafelen de mechanismen in biologische processen en ontwikkelen nieuwe zachte materialen die geïnspireerd zijn door de natuur.

Shape and biological function are tightly connected. Physical descriptions are used to connect the shape of a biological system with its function.

In deze master specialisatie ligt de focus op het begrijpen van biologische processen in hun natuurlijke context, zoals cellen en weefsels.

This dissertation contains four works during my PhD. Different biomaterials have been designed based on coiled-coil peptides. These biomaterials have a range of applications, inclusing drug delivery, cell sorting to cell-cell fusion.

This thesis investigates how cell shape and collective behavior influence the dynamics and structure of biological tissues, which are crucial for understanding processes like embryonic development, tissue regeneration, and metastasis.

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.

The major and ultimate aim of metabolomics is to obtain an answer to a specific biological or clinical question.

Hoe kunnen we een balans vinden tussen de soms tegenstrijdige belangen van individuele, publieke en private data-producenten en –verwerkers?

The emergence of complex diseases resulting from abnormal cell-cell signaling and the spread of infectious diseases caused by pathogens are significant threats to humanity. Unraveling the dynamic mechanisms underlying cell-cell signaling and infectious disease spreading is crucial for effective disease…

Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world. One of its symptoms is the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta.

Vitamin A or retinol is essential in embryonic development, the visual cycle and the immune system.

In this thesis, we show how MRFM can usefully contribute to the field of condensed-matter.

This work has described synthetic strategies towards well-defined structures resembling capsular polysaccharide (CPS) fragments, CPS mimics, teichoic acid (TA) fragments as well as a third-generation ring-closing tandem metathesis (RCM) linker to better exploit the potential of automated synthesis.

Neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease (PD), are increasing in prevalence due to the aging population. Despite extensive study, these diseases are still not fully understood and the lack of personalised treatment options that can target the cause of the diseases, rather than the symptoms,…

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…

Marine sponges are important members of reef ecosystems, as they play ecological roles that are essential for the health of the reef.

Due to their central physiological roles in living organisms, retaining beta-glycosidases have been the subject of tremendous research efforts to examine their structure/function relation using numerous biophysical and biochemical approaches.

The recently introduced nature-originated deep eutectic solvents, so-called natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) are considered as truly green solvents, which composed of natural ingredients found abundantly in organisms.

Glycoside hydrolases (glycosidases/GHs) are widely abundant enzymes in all kingdoms of life and are important biocatalysts that catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosidic linkages in oligo/polysaccharides, glycoproteins and glycolipids with tremendous efficiency

Kleinere computerchips, smallere cameraatjes; ze worden steeds moeilijker om te maken. Maar wat als de bouwstenen zichzelf opbouwen? Natuurkundige Daniela Kraft bedacht een methode om deeltjes aan te sturen in samenklonteren. Publicatie in ACS Nano.
