Prematurely born neonates require, amongst others, pharmaceutical therapy. Dosing guidelines for these therapies are often based on data from term born neonates or older infants, while these are not necessarily similar to prematurely born neonates.

The haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae) comprise about 4000 species distributed over a wide range of habitats, with great gametophytic and sporophytic morphological variation. Their monophyly is well supported by the results of several molecular phylogenetic studies, which shed light on their relationships…

The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) reduces vehicle emissions to combat climate change. EVs raise concerns regarding the production of lithium-ion batteries and related emissions; while batteries can also provide energy storage services for the electricity system.

Low-mass main-sequence stars like our Sun are continuous sources of outflowing hot magnetised plasma. In the case of the Sun, this is known as the solar wind, whereas for other stars they are called stellar winds.

Thirty years ago, mutations in the BRCA1 gene were first linked to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, establishing a genetic basis for cancer development.

Particles are omnipresent in biopharmaceutical products. In protein-based therapeutics such particles are generally associated with impurities, either derived from the drug product itself (e.g. protein aggregates), or from extrinsic contaminations (e.g. cellulose fibers).

Over the past years it has been discovered that the population of extra-solar planets is large and diverse.

The investigations described in this thesis lay out strategies aimed at advancing antibiotic research and development. The examples presented revolve around two main approaches: understanding drug-target interactions and target identification.

Er zijn wereldwijd vele open (leer)materialen beschikbaar, maar deze worden nog niet of zeer beperkt gebruikt in het onderwijs.

Tuberculosis (TB) is associated with 1.5 million deaths annually. There is a need exists to optimize both current as well as novel antibiotic combination treatment strategies to improve the effectiveness and safety of treatments against TB.

Er zijn voor jou, als kandidaat van de selectie, twee routes die je kunt bewandelen. Afhankelijk van de route (A of B) wordt naar een aantal criteria gekeken. Voor route A kandidaten tellen de 5vwo-overgangscijfers mee; voor kandidaten uit route B niet. Welke route je moet volgen en of je een toelatingsverzoek…

Bij Studeren à la carte of toehoorderschap is er sprake van aanschuifonderwijs: u schuift aan bij een reguliere collegereeks, zonder dat u tentamen aflegt. Na afloop ontvangt u een certificaat van deelname. Hierop staan geen studieresultaten (er is immers geen tentamen afgelegd).

The role of the interfacial environment during electrochemical reactions has been increasingly valued, especially for those reactions involving protons or hydroxyl ions.

Understanding interactions in quantum many-body systems remains one of the most profound and difficult challenges in condensed matter physics.

BlaC is the β-lactamase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We show that it can recover from inhibition by clavulanic acid and that phosphate helps it do so.

Docenten spelen een cruciale rol bij het implementeren van onderwijsvernieuwingen. Uiteindelijk hangt het succes van de implementatie af van de manier waarop docenten de vernieuwing vormgeven in hun dagelijkse lespraktijk.

Quantum computers are a proposed fundamentally new type of computer. They aim to perform some computations much faster than previously possible by exploiting phenomena at the quantum scale, called superposition and entanglement.

Indigenous Latin American artifacts have attracted the interest of Europeans since the earliest moment of contact between Europeans and the Indigenous peoples of the Americas. The ERC-funded BECACO project uses an innovative multidisciplinary framework to investigate the provenance of ethnographic and…

In this thesis, we used genetically engineered mouse models to identify genes and pathways that are involved in ILC formation and in the development of resistance to FGFR-targeted therapy.

Carbon dioxide capture and utilization technologies are necessary to create a truly circular economy. The electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide to formate is an appealing carbon utilization method as it can be performed at room temperature and pressure, it only requires two electrons, and it has…

Catalysis is of extreme relevance in the production of everyday materials and plays a central role in many aspects of our life.

There is accumulating evidence for an increase in severe global drought events. In particular, Europe experienced several severe droughts in 2003, 2015, and 2018 (unprecedented in the past 2,110 years). Such droughts have caused serious and far-reaching impacts on terrestrial ecosystems.
