Almost all bacteria are enveloped by a cell wall that provides cellular protection.

On the largest scale, the Universe resembles a cosmic spiderweb. Most galaxies coexist in small groups within the threads of this web. At the nodes of the threads are enormous groups of galaxies forming the largest structures in the universe still held together by gravity: clusters of galaxies.

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.

Like a mixture of oil and water, lipid membranes separate into two liquid phases.

In the current global context, there is a pressing need to address sustainable energy supplies to safeguard our Planet and its ecosystems. The choices made by human society have a significant impact on genetic evolution and climate.

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,…

The stratum corneum is the outermost skin layer and consists of dead cells embedded in a lipid matrix.

In this thesis, classes of strongly interacting quantum field theories, have been studied.

Food security is challenged by a growing global population and by climate change. Drought and soil salinity are considered the most important ones that inhibit crop yield and distribution. Worryingly, climate change is predicted to increase not only their frequency and severity, but also their co-occurrence,…

Fokelien Kootstra verdedigde haar proefschrift op 23 april 2019

uman skin equivalents (HSEs) are in vitro 3D-skin models that mimic many aspects of the native human skin (NHS) and can be a valuable tool.

Miriam Cohen verdedigde haar proefschrift genaamd “Reparations for International Crimes and the development of a Civil Dimension of International Criminal Justice” op 28 juni 2017. Ze schreef haar proefschrift onder supervisie van prof.dr. L.J. van den Herik en prof. dr. C. Stahn.

Stars like the sun are born in large molecular clouds existing from gas and dust. During the formation process, the chemical composition of the material can be altered drastically by the changing physical conditions.

The origin and evolution of galaxies are closely linked to many different physical phenomena.

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

The Low Frequency Array enables studies of low-frequency carbon radio recombination lines with unprecedented sensitivity, spectral and spatial resolution.

Cynthia van Vonno, politicoloog aan de Universiteit Leiden, verklaart in haar proefschrift waarom individuele parlementariers meestemmen met hun fractie.

Global healthcare is on the verge of an antibiotic availability crisis as bacteria have evolved resistance to nearly all known antibacterials. Identifying new antibiotics that operate via novel modes-of-action is therefore of high priority.

The research described in this thesis focused on identifying novel drug targets and synergistic combinations for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a virulent subtype of breast cancer with a dismal prognosis and limited therapeutic options.

Tracing the evolution of the molecular gas content in galaxies is critical for a complete understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, as it provides the direct fuel for star formation. Studies of high-redshift (z>1) molecular gas reservoirs, most commonly traced by carbon monoxide (CO), have seen…
