Cholesterol metabolism is tightly regulated both at the cellular as well as whole-organism level. This regulation ensures that the level of cholesterol does not increase to toxic levels and that sufficient cholesterol is available for processes requiring it. Disruption of this balance is at the center of several pathological conditions in ...meer

The Assistant Professor of Ship Design contributes to the section’s educational offerings in both the master and bachelor programmes. She or he is expected to develop and deliver lectures in both Dutch and English and to provide instruction and exercises. Coaching and supervising graduating students is an additional aspect of the ...meer

Als senior onderzoeker ga je zelfstandig onderzoek verrichten binnen de SWOV naar verschillende aspecten van de verkeersveiligheid. Dit zijn onderzoeken uit zowel het jaarlijkse onderzoeksprogramma voor het Ministerie van IenM als onderzoeken voor de regio en de EU. De kandidaat zal vooral op de korter lopende opdrachten worden ingezet; bij de ...meer

IntroductionCoatings are widely applied on wooden substrates for protective and esthetical reasons. In the protection of wood against rotting the control of water migration into the wood is an important function of a coating. The permeability of the coating is intrinsically connected with its composition, structure and morphology. Since wood is ...meer

When comparing a facial image from a crime scene with a police photograph, forensic experts pay attention to morphologic-anthropologic features, following a prescribed protocol. The support for the hypothesis that crime-scene and reference image originate from one individual is expressed in qualitative terms, such as “no support”, “limited sup-port”, “moderate support”, ...meer

A full Professor of Economics (permanent position) who will be the head of the chair group ‘Agricultural Economics and Rural Policy’. The group conducts outstanding research and teaching activities and focuses on the economics of agriculture, food production and rural development in Europe. The group is part of a larger section ...meer

The Biomolecular Electronic Structure (BES) group of Prof. Claudia Filippi at the University of Twente has currently one PhD opening in the area of simulations of light‐induced phenomena in biological systems. This research will involve methodological developments of novel and more effective computational approaches for the description of electronic properties of complex ...meer

Het project ‘Towards a joint strategy for the return of results and optimal communication with biobank donors’ beoogt de mogelijkheden te verkennen voor het terugkoppelen van resultaten aan donoren van biobanken (patiënten en vrijwilligers). Daartoe wordt een systematische inventarisatie gemaakt van de data in Nederlandse biobanken en geanalyseerd welke data en ...meer

Homocysteïne is een onafhankelijke risicofactor voor het ontstaan van osteoporotische fracturen. In dit project gaat de onderzoeker bestuderen of een verstoorde DNA methylering een rol speelt bij homocysteïne-geïnduceerde osteoporotische fracturen. Hiervoor zal het volledige epigenoom van de witte bloedcel in kaart gebracht worden met behulp van 450K humane methyleringsarrays en worden ...meer

There is worldwide a strong drive to efficiently generate white light for many applications in lighting. The modern approach is to employ white light emitting diodes (LEDs). These LEDs typically consist of a blue diode combined with luminescent phosphors to convert part of the blue light to the additional colors yellow, ...meer

The University of Twente offers a PhD position to work on self-assembly of virus particles, in two and three dimensions. The focus will be on forming long-range, ordered networks of viruses by taking advantage of unique orientational order in liquid crystals. Designing, synthesizing and optimizing the structure of novel virus-compatible, hydrophilic ...meer

TasksThe PhD project focuses on analysing and improving the vehicle dynamics of articulated, long and heavy commercial vehicles. This includes for example swept path, rearward amplification and roll over stability. A simulation tool has to be developed for this purpose and it will be validated with measurements on existing LHV combinations. ...meer

In the Combustion Technology Group, research is conducted on combustion processes in domestic and industrial applications. The main purpose of the research is related to the optimization of combustion processes and applications and the reduction of the pollutant emissions of, for instance soot, NO, CO, CO2 and partially unburned hydrocarbons. This ...meer

Project descriptionIn recent years a significant aspect of global growth in plastic materials has been the innovative production and use of plastics in various areas of application (e.g. automotive, construction, aerospace, healthcare and electronics). This growth has been largely driven by combinations of plastics with inorganic materials, i.e., by composites. An ...meer

Project descriptionEveryday experience shows that polymers deform irreversibly (ductility; brittle fracture) under the application of high loads. Such behavior can be quantified in controlled experiments, and also be described phenomenologically by macroscopic models. However, the relevant microscopic processes are still largely unknown, particularly in glassy polymers. As a result, it is ...meer
