(author), Fernandes, E.O. (author), Jerrett, M. (author), Cherrie, J.W. (author)The advent of the exposome concept, the advancement of mobile technology, sensors, and the “internet of things” bring exciting opportunities to exposure science. Smartphone apps, wireless devices, the downsizing of monitoring technologies, along with lower costs for such equipment makes it possible for various aspects of exposure to be measured...article 2017

Erbe, C. (author), Ainslie, M.A. (author), de Jong, C.A.F. (author), Racca, R. (author), Stocker, M. (author)As concern about anthropogenic noise and its impacts on marine fauna is increasing around the globe, data are being compared across populations, species, noise sources, geographic regions, and time. However, much of the raw and processed data are not comparable due to differences in measurement methodology, analysis and reporting, and a lack of...conference paper 2016

(author)To improve the quality control of herbal drugs, there has been a major shift from evaluating individual chemicals to evaluating multiple-constituent chemicals, given the multi-pharmacology nature of herbal drugs. Therefore, rapid, systematic assays are needed in order to assess the quality of medicinal herbs using a comprehensive, integrated...article 2016

de Vries, H.W.W. (author), Azzopardi, G. (author), Koelewijn, A. (author), Knobbe, A. (author)Dike monitoring is crucial for protection against flooding disasters, an especially important topic in low countries, such as the Netherlands where many regions are below sea level. Recently, there has been growing interest in extending traditional dike monitoring by means of a sensor network. This paper presents a case study of a set of pore...bookPart 2014

Ramautar, R. (author), Berger, R. (author), van der Greef, J. (author), Hankemeier, T. (author)Metabolomics provides a direct functional read-out of the physiological status of an organism and is in principle ideally suited to describe someone's health status. Whereas only a limited number of small metabolites are used in the clinics, in inborn errors of metabolism an extensive repertoire of metabolites are used as biomarkers. We discuss...article 2013

Teune, M.J. (author), van Wassenaer, A.G. (author), van Dommelen, P. (author), Mol, B.W.J. (author), Opmeer, B.C. (author)Objective: Many obstetric interventions are performed to improve long-term neonatal outcome. However, long-term neonatal outcome is usually not a primary outcome because it is time-consuming and expensive. The aim of this project was to identify different perinatal risk indicators and to develop prediction models for neurologic morbidity at 2...article 2011
