Mariëtte Huizinga, Dorien Graas en Anika Bexkens vragen aandacht voor leerproblemen van leerlingen met een licht verstandelijke beperking in de klas. Met hun nieuwe boek willen zij het leerkrachten makkelijker maken om aan te sluiten bij de specifieke onderwijsbehoeften van deze kinderen.

Er zijn veel studies waarmee je kunt instromen in de master Health, Ageing and Society! Veel gezondheidsgerelateerde opleidingen zijn direct toelaatbaar, maar je bent ook welkom met een andere studieachtergrond.

In this thesis the links between allergy and intestinal health, the gut microbiome (GM), and external factors were studied by exploring the metabolome in longitudinal clinical studies and in vitro models.

Het Dappere Kleintjes onderzoeksteam heeft al meerdere artikelen gepubliceerd over angst en verlegenheid in jonge kinderen.

How and to what extent the historic house (re-)constructs identity through image-making in China.

Humans perceive the real world through their sensory organs: vision, taste, hearing, smell, and touch. In terms of information, we consider these different modesalso referred to as different channels of information or modals.

This dissertation presents new cryptographic protocols, which can be divided into two families.

At the largest scales, two ingredients dictate the distribution of matter in the Universe. The first is dark matter, acting as an invisible scaffolding held together by gravitational forces.

We consider the propagation of electrical signals through nerve fibres.

Balsaminaceae is a diverse plant family characterized by a huge floral morphological diversity.

Innovation plays an essential role in firms' competitiveness and long-term success. It varies from different types, ranging from run-of-the-mill innovation that brings incremental changes to existing technologies to radical innovation that breaks from existing trajectories.

Classical statistical methods, such as p-values, are difficult for researchers to apply correctly. They for example do not allow drawing conclusions from a study early, or for extending a study with extra research groups that want to make their data available later.

In this thesis, the focus lies on studying glucocorticoid receptor dynamics in living cells with the aim of understanding how this transcription factor finds its DNA target sites to regulate transcription.

Een half miljoen mensen heeft het afgelopen jaar te maken gehad met pesterijen op het werk. Daarvan worden 80.000 mensen structureel vernederd, vermeden, uitgescholden of bedreigd. Wat weten we over het effect van pesten op de werkvloer op onze gezondheid?

A plasma is an ionized gas with very low electrical resistivity. As such, magnetic field lines are 'frozen in' and move with the fluid. Magnetic field lines that are linked, knotted and tangled, cannot be undone by the fluid motions.

Sheltering is an immediate human need and determines well-being andhealth.

This thesis mainly focuses on cross-modal retrieval and single-modal image retrieval via deep learning methods, i.e. by using deep convolutional neural networks.

This work is dedicated to interpreting in cohomological terms the special values of zeta functions of arithmetic schemes.

Barrier function is the natural role of the skin. The lipid matrix present in the outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum is important for this function.

A modern ship design process is subject to a wide variety of constraints such as safety constraints, regulations, and physical constraints.

This thesis describes the role of pollution, specifically neonicotinoid insecticides, as an actor of the ongoing biodiversity decline.

Green hydrogen is produced via a process called water electrolysis. During electrolysis water is split into oxygen and hydrogen.

The lipid membrane is a basic structural component of all living cells. Embedded in this nanometer-thin barrier, membrane proteins shape the membrane and at the same time respond to the shape of the membrane.

Atherosclerosis is the most important underlying process that drives cardiovascular disease, and is characterized by an accumulation of cholesterol which triggers an inflammatory response in the vessel wall.

In some condensed matter systems, such as the surface of a 3D topological insulator, the electrons are effectively massless and we must necessarily use the massless Dirac equation to describe them.

The ultimate goal of cosmologists is to find a cosmological model able to explain the current observational data.
