In this thesis we study products of linear error correcting codes.

Op 8 januari 2020 verdedigde Jelmer Brouwer zijn proefschrift 'Detection, detention, deportation'. Het promotieonderzoek is begeleid door promotoren prof.dr. J.P. van der Leun en prof.dr. M.A.H. van der Woude.

Structural variants (SVs) are the hidden architecture of the human genome, and are critical for us to understand diseases, evolution, and so on.

Single-molecule spectroscopy has become a powerful method for using organic fluorescent molecules in numerous applications.

The major and ultimate aim of metabolomics is to obtain an answer to a specific biological or clinical question.

How do nanoparticles bioaccumulate and biodistribute in organisms?

Twee hoogleraren die op dezelfde dag hun oratie uitspreken, dat is een zeldzaamheid aan de Universiteit Leiden. Berna Güroğlu en Ellen de Bruijn zijn gespecialiseerd in aanverwante vakgebieden: beiden onderzoeken de invloed van sociale context op hersenprocessen. Güroğlu doet dat bij adolescenten, De…

Richard Gill, hoogleraar Statistiek bij de Universiteit Leiden, heeft onlangs een voordracht gegeven “Statistical Errors in Court” tijdens een recent evenement van TEDx Vlaanderen. Hij spreekt over de zaak Lucia de Berk, een verpleegster die, op basis van met name statistisch materiaal, schuldig werd…

Errors are everywhere, and mechanical failures are especially common: buckled grain silos and cracked support columns are, justly, seen as an issue to be avoided.

This thesis covers several aspects of quantum algorithms for near-term quantum computers and its applications to quantum chemistry and material science.

This thesis aims to improve the detection from ultra-weak single emitter by enhancing their emission properties with plasmonic nanostructures. We exploit the wet-chemically synthesized single crystalline gold nanorods (GNRs) as our basic frameworks in the whole studies, simply because of their unique…

In this PhD-thesis several new and existing data science application are described that are particularly focused on applications for tax administrations.

The field of exoplanet research is rapidly advancing through the development of new technology, observing techniques, and post-processing methods.

Statistical distributions in LCA and converting between different representations of these distributions.

Understanding the formation and evolution of planetary systems is one of the most fundamental challenges in astronomy. To directly image and study young exoplanets and the circumstellar disks they form from, dedicated high-contrast imaging instruments are built.

This thesis covers various applications of topology in condensed matter physics and quantum information.

Voor alle Woo-verzoeken, audits, parlementaire enquêtes en raads-enquêtes alsmede verzoeken van toezichthouders geldt: hoe kan overzicht worden gehouden in (ongestructureerde) data? In de publieke en private sector hebben we te maken met verschillende soorten verzoeken, maar toezicht is voor beide van…

As a non-invasive genetic method, eDNA based approaches have become an important component of ecologists' and environmental managers' toolkits for biomonitoring in conservation and an increasingly important source of ecological knowledge.

A difficulty of studies on chemical kinetics are the reaction time scales and detection of their intermediates.

With the emergence of online social networks (OSNs), the way people create and share information has changed, which becomes faster and broader than traditional social media.

In this thesis chemical and physical processes in the ice mantles on interstellar dust grains are studied.

Gold nanoparticles show surprisingly strong interactions with light in the visible range, which can be divided into scattering, absorption, and photoluminescence.
