De Engelstalige master Biomedical Sciences gaat over alle normale en abnormale processen in het menselijk lichaam. Zo leer je ziektes beter te begrijpen, bestaande therapieën te verbeteren of nieuwe therapieën te bedenken. Naast het algemene programma dat zich toespitst op de wetenschappelijke onderzoekscomponent,…

To study how planetary systems come into existence we study much younger systems still in formation.

This thesis focuses on the study of transient and variable radio sources in the universe.

The next generation of high-contrast imaging instruments on space-based observatories requires sophisticated wavefront sensing and control in addition to a high-performance coronagraph.

From surface science towards industrial practice using high-pressure scanning tunneling microscopy.

This thesis investigates the relations between metabolism and anatomy through the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

This thesis describes the development and validation of new high-contrast imaging techniques, with the ultimate goal of enabling the next generation of instruments for ELT-class telescopes to directly image Earth-like extra-solar planets orbiting around nearby stars.

We have studied shape with a particular focus on the zebrafish model system. The shape is an essential appearance of the phenotype of a biological specimen and it can be used to read out a current state or response or to study gene expression.

This thesis aims to demonstrate how the achromatic nature and design flexibility of liquid-crystal optics can be used to improve high-contrast imaging instruments to facilitate detailed exoplanet characterization.

In this thesis we investigated the ability of two-photon multifocal microscopy for single-molecule microscopy in live cells and organisms.

Hoe breng je larven van de zebravis microscopisch in beeld? De nieuwe gratis online cursus ‘Imaging the Vertebrate embryo’ leert je er alles over. Leidse promovendi Salomé Muñoz Sánchez en Radoslaw Gora werkten mee aan de cursus.

De masteropleiding Vitality and Ageing is dit jaar beoordeeld als topopleiding in de Keuzegids Masters. Ook Biomedical Sciences staat op de eerste plaats. Farmacie stijgt naar de tweede plaats en tussen de masteropleidingen Geneeskunde is opnieuw weinig kwaliteitsverschil.

Marin van Heel, emeritus hoogleraar bij het Instituut Biologie Leiden (NeCEN), is een van de winnaars van de Wiley Prize in Biomedical Sciences 2017. Deze jaarlijkse onderscheiding eert belangrijke bijdragen die nieuwe onderzoeksvelden ontsluiten of concepten hebben bevorderd in een biomedische disc…

The LIACS Media Lab has received a research grant from the worldwide leading graphics hardware company NVIDIA. The grant exists of newly developed hardware utilizing thousands of processors. LIACS researchers will use it to investigate deep learning in understanding imagery from sources such as MRI…
