LiDAR is een relatief nieuwe meettechniek waarmee het Actueel Hoogtebestand Nederland het hele land zeer nauwkeurig mee heeft ingemeten. Het grote voordeel van deze manier van meten is dat vegetatie geen belemmering vormt. Hierdoor kunnen ook gebieden waar vegetatie de zichtbaarheid van de ondergrond…

In this thesis, we describe the latest advances in SQUID-detected Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM).

The lysosomal β-glucosidase named glucocerebrosidase (GCase) is a retaining β-glucosidase that hydrolyzes the glycosphingolipid glucosylceramide (GlcCer) to ceramide and glucose at acid pH.

Majorana fermions in superconductors are the subgap quasiparticle excitations that are their own antiparticles.

Optical projection tomography (OPT) is a tomographic 3D imaging technique used for specimens in the millimetre scale.

This dissertation presents new cryptographic protocols, which can be divided into two families.

Advanced mass spectrometry of glycosphingolipids takes the central stage in this thesis. Investigations focus on characterization of glycosphingolipid metabolism in health and disease with emphasis to the detection and accurate quantitation of known and so far unknown glycosphingolipids and closely…

Industrial manufacturing processes, such as the production of steel or the stamping of car body parts, are complex semi-batch processes with many process steps, machine parameters and quality indicators.

Lysosomal glycosidases are acid hydrolases that fragment glycoconjugates in lysosomes.

The database research community has made tremendous strides in developing powerful database engines that allow for efficient analytical query processing.

De Young Academy Leiden heeft een bestuur bestaande uit een voorzitter en een vicevoorzitter. Daarnaast wordt de YAL ondersteund door een projectmanager en een student-assistent.

David van Bodegom, hoogleraar Vitaliteit in een verouderende populatie, spreekt op 11 november zijn gelijknamige oratie uit. Volgens Van Bodegom ligt de sleutel tot gezond ouder worden in de leefomgeving. Hij pleit er dan ook voor om in de strijd tegen leefstijlgerelateerde aandoeningen onze leefomgeving…

This ecological community has long been known to affect host biology, and their diverse roles have been further clarified in recent years following numerous studies of animal:microbiota interactions in diverse systems.

With the help of quantum mechanics, digital quantum hardware may be able to tackle some of the problems that are too difficult for ordinary computers. But despite these expectations and the ongoing effort of the research community, reliable quantum computers are not yet realized in a lab setting.

The overall objectives of my thesis are to investigate the dynamics of the sorghum root microbiome and to explore the beneficial effects of the root microbiome on sorghum growth and stress tolerance.

This thesis describes the genetic and prokaryotic diversity of giant barrel sponges.

Systems are called real-time systems, if the correctness of the system does not only depend on the correctness of the system output but also on whether the output is delivered on time.

The rapidly increasing commercial application of metallic nanoparticles within products will inevitably enhance the amount of NPs being released into soil.

Even though more than 4000 extra-solar planets are known today, only a small fraction of these has been captured in an image. To better understand the planet formation mechanisms in solar-like environments we started the Young Suns Exoplanet Survey (YSES).

Binnen Quantum Leiden doen verschillende groepen onderzoek naar quantumnetwerken en quantumsensing.

It is an established fact that the Standard Model has to be extended to explain the so-called Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) phenomena: dark matter, matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe and neutrino flavour oscillations.

Freshwater is an important resource, but at a great risk of species decline due to habitat loss, pollution and over-exploitation, and invasive alien species.
