Our everyday life consists of all sorts of spatial processes: we find our way to work, remember where we left our keys, and are able to pick up our cup of coffee. We study how the human brain processes such spatial processes. From a clinical perspective, we are interested in how acquired brain damage…

Technological advances, such as virtual reality, augmented reality and online assessment platforms are rapidly improving. These tools could potentially contribute to neuropsychological assessment that is more efficient and of higher quality.

Neuroscientists are getting to know more about directional and navigation. Ineke van der Ham is an expert on navigation because of her research. Her research has attracted attention from several media sources such as TV/radio shows and newspapers.

Conference, Virtual Exhibition

The Navigation Lab Leiden is part of the department of Health, Medical and Neuropsychology at Leiden University, and led by Ineke van der Ham We study human spatial cognition, with an emphasis on navigation ability. We examine factors that can explain for individual differences, such as gender and age.…

This proposal aims at the construction of a comprehensive and authoritative scientific grammar for Dutch and Frisian in the form of a virtual language institute: het Taalportaal/the Language Portal.

Reactions and reaction times in cognitive tasks.

By training with virtual opponents known as computer generated forces (CGFs), trainee fighter pilots can build the experience necessary for air combat operations, at a fraction of the cost of training with real aircraft.

Great that you are interested in Leiden University and that you would like to find out what kind of programmes we offer. At the EU studies fair on 2 and 3 February 2022, representatives of the Law, International Relations and Political Science programmes were present to answer all your questions. Have…

In this project of the Center for Public Values & Ethics (CPVE) ongoing research is conducted on the history of advice to Dutch central government by so-called State committees from 1814 to 2014. State committees have been installed by Dutch central government since 1814 to provide expert advice, research…

Corruption, integrity (or a lack thereof…) and public values are near omnipresent elements in public administration and politics of all times. Cases of corrupt public officials and politicians continuously emerge. Strangely enough, however, it often remains unknown what actually occurred, how something…

Since its inception, the Honours Academy has been a ‘testing ground’ for innovative education. An important and related policy focus is sharing the acquired knowledge, so that the benefits gained from this testing ground can also be applied in other places. A third focus area is inclusiveness, given…

Navigating through the universe with VR glasses? It is possible, with the help of the new computer application built by Marc Driessen, a Computer Science student at Leiden University. As part of the course Human Computer Interaction (HCI), he developed a Virtual Reality Experience of our galaxy in about…

Training a robot in a real-life environment is more or less impossible. Computer scientist and psychologist Roy de Kleijn switched to training in a simulated, virtual one instead. ‘You do have a reality gap, but the more precisely you train the robot, the better it is in practice.’ His inspiration:…
