Het Prisonproject gaat na in hoeverre een gevangenisstraf gevolgen heeft voor onder andere recidive, gezondheid, beroepsloopbanen en intieme relaties van (ex-)gedetineerden.

What is the effect of light at night on plant phenology and physiology, and how does this affect plant interactions with other species?

Anthropogenic noise has been shown to affect marine animals in various ways, this may have fitness consequences at individual and population level. This thesis aims to increase insight into the quantification of sound-induced behavioural responses that are relevant to fitness, and into factors that…

This thesis combines field and laboratory studies to address some of the most pressing questions in the field of microplastic research.

Hoe kan de methode om de gecombineerde effecten van metaal-gebaseerde chemische stoffetn te bepalen worden verbeterd?

We find ourselves in an era of transition, not just towards a more computing- and data-driven society but also away from unsustainable fossil fuels as an energy source.

Can we distinguish the effects of pesticides from other abiotic and biotic factors that occur in the field? And how do these factors interact with pesticides?

Ice, the solid state of water, plays an important role on our planet as well as the entire universe.Despite the fact that an individual water molecule has a very simple structure, its chemical bonding in the solid phase can be surprisingly complex.

How are links between macro-invertebrate diversity and ecosystem functioning influenced by anthropogenic pressures?

In this thesis, the role of plant-mediated soil legacy effects in shaping aboveground plant-insect interactions was investigated.

In dit onderzoek wordt hersenontwikkeling voor het eerst direct gelinkt aan sekseverschillen en schoolprestatie. De resultaten ontkrachten de mythe dat jongens achterlopen in hersenontwikkeling.

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

This thesis explores interfacial conductance and electric field-effects in LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures.

We have studied the impact of particle shape anisotropy, multivalent interactions and flexibility on systems of micron-sized colloidal particles.

A management strategy has been developed for field margins to reduce pesticide drift to non-target areas and to promote biodiversity on arable land. To this end, 3 and 6 m wide strips along the edges of winter wheat, sugar beet and potato crops have been left unsprayed with herbicides and insecticides…

In this thesis, I study 1) metabolic alterations in tuberculosis related to wasting syndrome in human patients as well as in rodent and fish animal models. 2) effects of the mutation of the leptin gene on cachexia and diabetes in rodent and zebrafish animal models.

Curved single crystals provide variable, but well-defined surface structures.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are widely prescribed as anti-inflammatory drugs due to their well-established immunosuppressive effects.

To limit the effects of climate change, global average temperature since pre-industrial measurements are to be kept well below 2 °C preferably even at 1.5 °C.

1. To what extent do metallic NPs added to soil extractions change the activity, abundance, or community composition of microbes? 2. How do the effects of metallic NPs on soil microbes differ from the effects of the ions shedding from corresponding NPs?
