Driven by the societal wish to increase the safety of chemical manufacturing and continuous technological developments, micro-reactor technology was introduced to the toolbox of synthetic organic chemists some ten years ago. This technology enables organic chemists to perform organic reactions in a

The twentieth century was, as Henry Luce (Time/ Life) famously dubbed it, %E2%80%98the American Century%E2%80%99, a time when the United States came to manifest itself as a dominant cultural, political and economic power and influence in the global arena. Especially after 1945
Reflecting on ethical issues is important for all academic professionals. To develop this skill, you will study theoretical backgrounds and discuss practical examples during the meetings. You will also work on specific assignments in small groups and write an essay on a topic of your own
Business is very dynamic. The first low-cost airline failed dramatically. Supply chains in many industries (e.g. real estate, beer distribution) face booms and busts: fluctuations in sales, inventory volumes and earnings. Many successful businesses lose their leading market position. Many promising

Debt and inequality rank among society's most pressing problems. Global socio-economic inequalities are on the rise and more people and countries than ever are indebted. These problematic tendencies recently spawned a new wave of reflection, spearheaded by the British-American anthropologist David
Death is expected to play an increasing role in the European societies of the near future, due to factors like aging populations, early diagnosis coupled with prolonged dying, rampant individualism, greater physical and social mobility, environmental degradation and, most recently, the threat of
In this course you will learn how to use modern computational approaches to further your understanding of the human mind and its neural implementation. You will learn how to combine state%E2%80%90of%E2%80%90the art research approaches, adopting computational models of human behaviour and testing
With the advent of cutting-edge technologies, we have developed new ways to measure human brain activity. The brain-computer interface (BCI) is a direct communication pathway between the brain and an external device. Devices like these allow us to detect cognitive and sensory-motor functions such
