In de gezondheidszorg zijn datasets van klinische onderzoeken vaak hoogdimensionaal en hebben ze een kleine steekproefomvang, wat het risico op overfitting vergroot. Bovendien richt onderzoek in deze context zich doorgaans niet alleen op de nauwkeurigheid van de resulterende modellen, maar ook op de …

Technieken op het gebied van machine learning (ML) worden op grote schaal toegepast in de gezondheidszorg, variërend van precisiegeneeskunde tot de mogelijkheid van preventieve zorg. Een algemeen probleem bij klinische studies is de combinatie van hoge dimensionaliteit en kleine steekproefomvang, wat …

This thesis examines how German producers of whey powder can safeguard their exports to China against disruptions in the global supply chain. Based on literature, trade data and four in-depth interviews, it concludes that price fluctuations are less decisive than political, logistical and pandemic shocks …

The antibiotic streptomycin is an integral part of cell culture medium. Because streptomycin inhibits bacterial protein synthesis, streptomycin might also have off-target effects on muscle cell function. Here, we studied the effect of streptomycin on C2C12 myoblasts, myofiber growth, and metabolism. …
