Background Stroke is a major cause of disability globally, with high recurrence rates despite the implementation of secondary prevention strategies. Promoting physical activity and reducing sedentary behaviour are critical to mitigate these risks. Collaborative research approaches, including citizen …

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, countries around the world are pursuing electrification policies. In residential areas, electrification will increase electricity supply and demand, which is expected to increase grid congestion at a faster rate than grids can be reinforced. Battery energy storage …

A novel synthetic approach to 2,6-bis(acrylamido)pyridine (BAAPy) has been developed, producing a dual-function monomer able to self-crosslink while providing functional binding sites through its amide and pyridine groups. The monomer's structure and purity were confirmed through NMR, FTIR, and HPLC …

Dit onderzoek gaat over leiderschap in zorgorganisaties die werken met zelforganiserende teams. Het is uitgevoerd binnen een organisatie die zorg biedt aan mensen met een verstandelijke en/of lichamelijke beperking. De organisatie wilde haar zorg vernieuwen: cliënten moesten meer regie krijgen over hun …

OBJECTIVES: Amplitude-mode (A-mode) ultrasonography is a promising technique to monitor loss and recovery of skeletal muscle in patients with burns. However, its clinimetric properties are unknown. Therefore, we determined its feasibility, interrater, and intrarater reliability, and clinical utility. …

In 2023 heeft de gemeente Amsterdam het stadsdeelpanel geïntroduceerd als participatievorm. Staddeelpanels beogen bij te dragen aan betere oplossingen voor vraagstukken op het niveau van stadsdelen door bewoners adviezen te laten formuleren om deze vraagstukken aan te pakken. De stadsdeelpanels adviseren …

We present GarpN, a software tool designed to integrate qualitative and quantitative modelling. GarpN has three functionalities: translating a qualitative representation into a quantitative model, running numerical simulations and detecting quantitative states, and matching these states to their qualitative …

This paper describes the development of a systemsbased reference model to support teachers in learning about collaborative learning among teachers. By representing collaborative dynamics into a formal model, the project offers a tangible means to support sustained, collective professional growth. The …

We developed a lesson where students construct a qualitative representation to learn how clock genes are regulated. The lesson, designed for upper secondary and higher education, is implemented in the DynaLearn software (level 4), which allows for modelling feedback loops. Students construct the representation …
