Recent years have shown a growing effort in the evaluation of DNA given activity level propositions. Yet, its implementation remains challenging for forensic scientists due to the complexity of assessing relevant DNA TPPR mechanisms. One particular challenge is the sparsity of relevant experimental data …

By addressing the sub-research questions, the main research question and data mining goal were answered. Drought tolerance can be quantified using yield loss between control and drought treatments and robustly assessed by ranking varieties within each year. Varieties that consistently rank high or low …

Cyclophosphamide (CPA) is a commonly used alkylating chemotherapeutic drug that targets rapidly dividing cells causing apoptosis by crosslinking DNA. While effective against neoplasms, CPA can also affect healthy immune cells. This study investigated whether a single dose of CPA alters healthy lymphoid …

Highlights • Mandates standardised protocols for the publication of DNA transfer and recovery data to ensure consistency • Requires open-sharing of non-allelic experimental and casework data in accessible formats to build a databank. • Specifies use of fully continuous probabilistic genotyping and NIST …

Residential burglaries often go unsolved, as collected DNA traces and fingermarks frequently originate from residents rather than the offender. It is therefore important to know how to target sampling locations that specifically relate to the burglary event. However, data that aid in assessing the likelihood …

RNA metabolism is governed by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), which regulate gene expression in cells, including immune system cells. Cells overcome stressing factors to ensure survival by employing a wide range of mechanisms that mitigate damage and restore homeostasis. One of the mechanisms is the formation …

Het Delta Dreamers onderzoeksproject is een project dat is gerealiseerd onder leiding van lectoraat Human Capital van Hogeschool Inholland. Het project is mogelijk gemaakt door de Regiodeal Zuid-Hollandse Delta, thema aansluiting onderwijs-arbeidsmarkt. In het project participeerden 26 organisaties …

In het boekje Jongeren aan het roer lees je de belangrijkste bevindingen uit het onderzoeksproject Delta Dreamers DNA. In dit project werkten scholen, gemeenten en bedrijven van de Zuid-Hollandse eilanden samen aan een betere aansluiting tussen onderwijs en arbeidsmarkt. Het onderzoek brengt in kaart …

De scriptie onderzoekt de ecologische verschillen tussen de gewone oliekever (Meloe proscarabaeus) en de blauwe oliekever (Meloe violaceus) in Midden- en Zuid-Nederland. Beide soorten zijn broedparasieten van solitaire bijen en gelden als indicatorsoorten voor bijenleefgebieden. Veldonderzoek op negen …

A large, recently published, inter-laboratory study by the ReAct group has shown that there is considerable variability in DNA recovery that exists between forensic laboratories. The presence of this inter-laboratory variability presents issues when one laboratory wishes to carry out an evaluation and …
