… page 1/3 Introduction of new laboratory staff Introduction New employees (including students, trainees) who are going to work within a laboratory of FHML/FPN should be instructed on safe working and overall safety within a laboratory area before they can start working in laboratories. This instruction should take place by the Armico of the department, the chemicals manager, the ABV (Departmental Biological Safety Expert) and, if applicable, the researcher for whom the employee performs specific laboratory work. Content introduction of new employees laboratory New employees are introduced to all existing rules, guidelines and procedures applicable within the laboratory environment of FHML and FPN faculties by the above-mentioned persons. This is done using the checklist introduction of new employees. These include topics such as personal protective equipment, in-house emergency response (BHV), use of fume cupboards and Laminair Air Flow cabinets (LAFCs), ordering-storage-use of …

… their social and historical context; * to train yourself in critical thinking and analytic skills; * to reflect upon the underlying philosophical assumptions of the discipline(s) you are studying at your own faculty; * to reflect upon the Western canon and its supposed superiority. Course 1: The Birth of Reason The first course will take you on a journey of discovery from Antiquity to early Modernity. You will study and contextualize the amazing world views of leading thinkers of Antiquity (the … rights. You will • learn to recognise the theoretical assumptions underlying the dominant paradigms of today’s global society; • be able to analyse, evaluate, and reflect upon the complex arguments brought forward by the great thinkers studied in this course; • enhance your critical thinking and flexibility of mind. Course 2: Modernity and Its Discontents The second course will cover the emergence of new ideas that structured modern life and society up to today. Many leading ideas and … from the political, social, and cultural world (such as political ideologies, naturalised world views, and optimism about the potential of science) as well as opposition against them can be traced to Enlightenment thinkers and Romantic views. This course will present major Western thinkers (Descartes, Locke, Voltaire, Rousseau, Kant, Tocqueville, Hegel, Marx, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Freud, Weber, Arendt) who shaped modern society and culture from the eighteenth to the twentieth century. …

… of Science and Engineering programme the chance to work on real-world challenges. KE@Work was born of that desire: a recipe for synergies between UM and industry, and a way to keep talented international graduates in Limburg. Regional companies can propose suitable projects and are matched with students according to mutual preference. The students work two days per week during course periods and full time for the rest of the year. The contract with the company lasts two years, and includes … having family in the UK, he decided to study in the Netherlands. Being based in the EU would allow him to travel more easily, and experience more of Europe. KE@Work was one factor in his choice for UM. “I wanted to gain some work experience, and this was an interesting way of doing it without delaying graduation.” Abdelqader was delighted with the experience. “I got lucky. In retrospect, I think I actually got the best project. I’m biased, of course.” For Integrin, a mental-healthcare company … Still, she intends to learn the language and stick around for several more years. “I really like the work culture here. People take responsibility and communicate openly.” Minasyan credits the KE@Work programme with what she considers her dream job at this stage of her career. “It was a good use of my time. Thanks to the quick, helpful responses from my professors and the company supervisor, I gained so much experience and many skills during my studies. I’m not sure I could have got this job and …

… Institute/ School contact person: When the application is granted by both the CSC and UM, the contact person is responsible for the practical arrangements (i.e. assistance in obtaining a visa, finding accommodation, etc.) of the visit of the PhD candidate: - Title(s), initial(s), first name, surname: Dr. S.H. van Rijt - Research group: Department of Instructive Biomaterials Engineering, MERLN Institute for Technology-Inspired Regenerative Medicine - Address for correspondence: … Although promising results have been obtained, systemic delivery of ASOs/PNAs to the skeletal muscles remains a significant bottleneck in their clinical development mainly due to low in vivo stability and poor cellular uptake. Study objective: In this project, we aim to develop bio-degradable nanoparticles as vehicle for ASO/PNA delivery to skeletal muscles. Specifically, we aim to develop nanoparticles that are rapidly taken up by cells, can efficiently incorporate ASOs/PNAs, target the … (MABs) stem cell therapy. MABs are being researched as a promising stem cell therapy for neuromuscular disorders as they are able to differentiate into new muscle fibers and fuse with existing (defective) muscle fibers. Expected Results: In this project, nanoparticles with optimized properties for ASO/PNA delivery in muscle (stem)cells will be developed, characterized and subsequently tested in vitro using MABs from mitochondrial myopathy patients. Requirements: We are looking for a …

… five balls on each day d (until forever), such that the total weight of the balls taken out of the bag on day d is equal to d? For example, on day 1 the only way to do that is to pick four balls of weight 0 and one ball of weight 1. If you think that this is possible, then show how. Otherwise, give an argument why this is not possible. Problem 3: Line Dancing Professor K makes a euphoric dance after making another scientific breakthrough.

So, indeed professor K is performing a line … It first crawled up to the brim of the party hat to the point (2 cm higher) that is straight above the left ear. I later measured that in doing so, it covered a distance of 2.51 cm. (Clearly, it needed a bit more than 2 cm to get there, because as you can see the ears aren’t nicely shaped as a sphere.) Next, from that point on the brim onward, the ant crawled further across the party hat in the shortest way possible to the center of the five-pointed star of Maastricht. Then it continued its way to …

… of an ADHD symptom as provided above could be caused by deficits in cognition1, motivation, and/or timing2. Therefore, ADHD is a very heterogeneous disorder in which different neuropsychological deficits and different neurological dysfunctions can underlie the behavioural symptoms. Differentiating between these underlying neuropsychological deficits within the ADHD population is essential to determine the most effective treatment for each individual, i.e., a child with a motivation deficit benefits from another approach than a child with a cognitive deficit. However, the validity of this triple pathway model for diagnosis and treatment has only been studied limitedly. Therefore, this project focuses on the following 2 related aims: 1) To develop a psychometric sound ADHD screening questionnaire that identifies children at risk for ADHD as well as providing insight into the underlying neuropsychological deficits; 2) To develop …
