Deze serie benadert begrijpend lezen vanuit een cognitief perspectief. We beschrijven hoe lezers tot begrip komen. Dat wil zeggen: hoe zij coherente mentale representaties opbouwen tijdens het lezen van tekst.

The database research community has made tremendous strides in developing powerful database engines that allow for efficient analytical query processing.

The aim of this thesis is to develop and study a robust and adaptable scaffold for supramolecular polymer self-assembly in water.

This thesis develops a method for direction dependent calibration of the ionosphere in radio interferometric data.

The work in this thesis describes the fundamental role of Lkb1 as a conductor of metabolism-related processes in zebrafish larvae.

Metabolomics has the potential to play a pivotal role in understanding disease onset and progression, and ultimately personalized treatments. One of its major challenges is its large-scale implementation, which is necessary to deal with the high variability of the metabolome. In this work we have developed…

Al het onderzoek van de Universiteit Leiden is georganiseerd in instituten. Om recht te doen aan de veelkleurigheid van het onderzoek (en dus ook aan het onderwijs) dat daar uit voortvloeit vindt u op deze pagina’s omschrijvingen van alle Leidse instituten.

Het onderzoek van de programmagroep Onderwijswetenschappen richt zich op ‘het lerende kind in het onderwijs’. De focus ligt op processen die plaatsvinden tijdens de ontwikkeling en het leren.

The soil ecosystem consists of the largest reservoir of biodiversity on Earth.

In the search for sustainable energy solutions, the idea of artificial photosynthesis has been proposed as an approach with which to use water and sunlight to produce hydrogen.

The development process of any software has become extremely important not just in the IT industry, but in almost every business or domain of research.

This thesis focuses on addressing four research problems in designing embedded streaming systems.

In 2050 moet de overstap naar nieuwe, duurzame energiebronnen zijn voltooid. Wetenschappers van de Universiteit Leiden verrichten vanuit diverse disciplines uniek onderzoek dat bijdraagt aan deze transitie en de reductie van CO2.

In this course, you will develop an understanding of evolutionary processes and their formative power. You will see how evolution has shaped biodiversity, and continuously influences our daily life.

Deze minor richt zich op de cognitieve processen die invloed hebben op de wisselwerking tussen brein en bewustzijn.

Het onderzoek van Anne Helder toont aan wat in het brein gebeurt als lezers een tekst lezen waarin iets staat dat niet klopt. Promotie 15 november.

Aangezien jeuk en pijn zeer belastend kunnen zijn, vooral wanneer mensen chronisch aan (een van) deze symptomen lijden, is het belangrijk te weten door welke factoren deze gewaarwordingen worden beïnvloed. Het wordt steeds duidelijker dat psychologische factoren een belangrijke rol spelen bij het ervaren…

Wat is emotie in menselijke en niet-menselijke dieren? Hoe worden emoties uitgedrukt en hoe beïnvloeden ze onze interacties, onze beslissing om te vertrouwen, te wantrouwen en mee te werken? Waarom imiteren en synchroniseren we affectieve processen?

A neurocognitive investigation of the development of social performance monitoring in youth growing up in stressful versus non-stressful environments

Cell-based medicinal products (CBMPs), such as CAR T cells, are highly complex biopharmaceutical products offering various treatment options for serious illnesses such as cancer or autoimmune diseases.

The study of orchid flowers, fruits, and inflorescences is crucial due to the remarkable diversity of orchid species and their unique adaptations to pollinators and seed dispersers. However, our understanding of the evolution and development of these organs within the orchid family remains limited.
