The researchers examine the Council of the European Union's voting behaviour between 2010 and 2021 and the impact of different independent variables.

CADS researchers give methodology their own unique signature through two parallel engagements: (a) teaching and researching the full range of social science methods, from audio-visual engagements, through global ethnography, to statistical analysis; and (b) interrogating these multiple modalities employing…

You gain a strong foundation in computer science, combined with knowledge of machine learning, cognitive science, human-robot interaction. You will learn to develop and program systems based on knowledge of the human brain.

Knowledge on how to adjust a drug dose in special patient populations such as (prematurely born) neonates or children, obese individuals or critically-ill patients, is not only crucial for novel compounds, but also for existing drugs which are often used in an off-label manner in these special patient…

MERGE aims to understand how we can improve the usefulness and accessibility of policy frameworks and indicators on well-being and strengthen the transition toward sustainable development policies.

We are transparent about our research involving laboratory animals, which includes providing access to our annual statistics. On this page, you will find an overview of various aspects, such as the number of animals and the species we use, the types of research for which we employ animals, and the level…

From applied to fundamental research, and from algebra to data science, our master’s programme spans these fields entirely. You will be able to follow courses from the national Mastermath programme and write a thesis in one of our strong research groups in algebra, number theory and geometry; dynamical…
