de Vries, Natasja L. (author), Mahfouz, A.M.E.T.A. (author), Koning, Frits (author), de Miranda, Noel F.C.C. (author)Cancers are characterized by extensive heterogeneity that occurs intratumorally, between lesions, and across patients. To study cancer as a complex biological system, multidimensional analyses of the tumor microenvironment are paramount. Single-cell technologies such as flow cytometry, mass cytometry, or single-cell RNA-sequencing have...review 2020

Mourão Bento, H.F. (author), de Vries, R. (author), Veldhuis, L.L.M. (author)Ducted propellers constitute an efficient propulsion-system alternative to reduce the environmental impact of aircraft. These systems are able to increase the thrust-to-power ratio of a propeller system by both producing thrust and by lowering tip losses of propellers. In this research, steady and unsteady RANS CFD simulations were used to...conference paper 2020

Finger, D. Felix (author), de Vries, R. (author), Vos, Roelof (author), Braun, Carsten (author), Bil, Cees (author)The number of case studies focusing on hybrid-electric aircraft is steadily increasing, since these configurations are thought to lead to lower operating costs and environmental impact than traditional aircraft. However, due to the lack of reference data of actual hybrid-electric aircraft, in most cases, the design tools and results are...conference paper 2020

(author), Brinkman, Alexander (author), van der Wiel, Wilfred G. (author), Bakkers, E.P.A.M. (author), Zwanenburg, Floris A. (author)We show a hard superconducting gap in a Ge-Si nanowire Josephson transistor up to in-plane magnetic fields of 250 mT, an important step toward creating and detecting Majorana zero modes in this system. A hard gap requires a highly homogeneous tunneling heterointerface between the superconducting contacts and the semiconducting nanowire. This...journal article 2020

(author), Rijken, Dingeman C. (author), Koenderink, G.H. (author)Subjects with diabetes mellitus (DM) have an increased risk of arterial thrombosis, to which changes in clot structure and mechanics may contribute. Another contributing factor might be an increased formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in DM. NETs are mainly formed during the acute phase of disease and form a network within the...journal article 2020

Fajardo, Sebastian (author), Hofstede, Gert Jan (author), de Vries, Martijn (author), Kramer, Mark R. (author), Bernal, Andrés (author)Studies of colonization processes in past human societies often use a standard population model in which population is represented as a single quantity. Real populations in these processes, however, are structured with internal classes or stages, and classes are sometimes created based on social differentiation. In this present work,...journal article 2020

de Vries, Jannelie (author)Interobserver reliability is a problem in behavioural studies. In order to increase the interobserver reliability, a formal checker is used to study behaviour. Together with a clear ethogram of basic behaviours, this tool can be used to automatically check for more complex behaviours and thus reducing the risk of biases introduced by human...master thesis 2019
