- Academy of Ecosystem Services
The Academy of Ecosystem Services acts as a platform to provide solutions to issues related to ecosystem services and to stimulate the exchange between science and practice.
/en/node/23635 - Biomolecular Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics
The activities of this research group are divided in Mass Spectrometry based proteomics and Mass spectrometry based structural biology.
/en/research/biomolecular-mass-spectrometry-and-proteomics - Copernicus Institute of Sustainable Development
The Copernicus Institute investigates and develops processes and opportunities for innovative change towards sustainability.
/en/research/copernicus-institute-of-sustainable-development - Cultural Anthropology
At the department Cultural Anthropology we study the interconnectedness, changes and conflicts in human societies and cultures from a global and comparative perspective.
/en/organisation/cultural-anthropology/research - Debye Institute for Nanomaterials Science
At the Debye Institute for Nanomaterial(s) Science, chemistry and physics meet to study the properties of materials at the nanoscale, with a specific focus on three themes: catalysis, colloid science and nanophotonics.
/en/research/debye-institute-for-nanomaterials-science - Dynamics of Youth
How can we help our children to develop into well-balanced individuals who are able to hold their own and develop fully in a rapidly changing world?
/en/research/dynamics-of-youth - Energy and Resources
We study the grand challenges of our times: how to realize a sustainable energy and resource system within a world constrained by climate change and increasingly resource scarcity?
/en/research/copernicus-institute-of-sustainable-development/research/research-groups/energy-and-resources - Environmental Governance
We study and formulate recommendations about interventions that have the potential to make governance outcomes more congruent with sustainability goals.
/en/research/copernicus-institute-of-sustainable-development/research/research-groups/environmental-governance - Environmental Sciences
We investigate interactions between global changes and ecosystem processes, for sustainability of ecosystem services to humans
/en/research/copernicus-institute-of-sustainable-development/research/research-groups/environmental-sciences - Innovation Studies
We investigate the dynamics of emerging technologies and innovations that are relevant for societal problems.
/en/research/copernicus-institute-of-sustainable-development/research/research-groups/innovation-studies - Inorganic Chemistry & Catalysis
The research in this group involves synthesis, characterization and performance of well-defined solid catalysts and related functional materials for gas storage and photochemical conversion processes.
/en/research/inorganic-chemistry-catalysis - Institutions for open societies
Scholars from the fields of economics, history, public administration, culture, law, sociology, social psychology, ethics, innovation studies, and geography join forces to find answers to the following key questions: Why do societies develop so divergently? And how do institutions contribute to the formation of open and sustainable societies?
/en/research/institutions-for-open-societies - Interdisciplinary Social Science
At the department Interdisciplinary Social Science we deal with social issues such as discrimination in the labour market, reintegration at work, growing up in multicultural neighbourhoods, developing your own identity, risk behaviour among young people, growing inequality and accessibility of healthcare.
/en/organisation/interdisciplinary-social-science/research - Membrane Biochemistry & Biophysics
This research group has a focus on the molecular mechanisms behind life processes that involve biological membranes. Their research will help to improve fundamental understanding of membrane function thereby leading to better insights in membrane-related diseases like diabetes, Alzheimers disease and Barth syndrome.
/en/research/membrane-biochemistry-and-biophysics - Methodology and Statistics
At the department Methodology & Statistics we develop methodological and statistical techniques for the purpose of (social and behavioural sciences) research.
/en/organisation/methodology-and-statistics/research - NMR
The research in this group aims at gaining fundamental insight into biological processes using solution and solid-state NMR spectroscopy.
/en/research/nmr - Organic Chemistry & Catalysis
This multi-disciplinary research group studies topics as diverse as synthetic and physical organic chemistry, homogeneous catalysis, and bioinorganic chemistry.
/en/research/organic-chemistry-catalysis - Physical Colloid Chemistry
This research group is focused on the self-organisation of colloids and nanoparticles in liquid media.
/en/research/physical-colloid-chemistry - Sociology
At the department Sociology we deal with a wide range of sociological topics such as: social inequality, crime, migration and integration, social networks, policy and organisation, cooperative relations, families and work.
/en/organisation/sociology/research - Structural Biochemistry
This section aims at a precise biochemical understanding of chemical and biological processes in cells and tissue that are enabled by proteins.
/node/105019 - Sustainability
This research theme aims to unravel system Earth for a sustainable future.
