Nice clouds," critics would say, "But really, it isn't quite art with a capital A, is it?" Until recently, Dutch Art of the Golden Age was seen as technically good, but not very interesting. It was just too realistic, where was the artistic imagination? Today, this opinion on Dutch
Innovations and rapid developments in social and biological sciences have resulted in an interdisciplinary approach to unravel the biological underpinning of human behaviour. In order to study these brain-mind relationships social neuroscientists use various neuroscientific methodologies. This
The goal of this summer school is to teach and train master students and PhD students in recent advances in neural circuit development and plasticity from an interdisciplinary perspective. This will be achieved in two ways: first by a series of lectures by renowned international speakers to provide
The fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology depend on materials with critical dimensions in the nanometre range. Examples include organic macromolecules, inorganic catalyst particles, and size-quantized metal and semiconductor structures. The properties of these materials depend on the size and
Did you ever wonder why: - A p-value can be used to falsify a null-hypothesis but not to validate it? - You are testing the null hypothesis even when it is never among your hypotheses of interest? - It is sometimes difficult to interpret the results of classical hypothesis testing? Did you ever
