In her lecture Upinder Singh, Professor of History, Ashoka University, Sonepat, India, argues that the fundamental template of ancient Indian political ideology and religious policy was established during the period c. 200 BCE-300 CE through a continuous dialogic process revealed in the manner in which kings inscribed their power on their realm. She does so by drawing on epigraphic evidence to focus on three themes.

Electricity is a key energy carrier in the energy transition. Electrification is the dominant pathway towards sustainability in several sectors such as transportation and heat supply, both for industry and the built environment. Consequently, electricity is widely seen as enabler for the energy transition. At the same time, at many locations the transition is proceeding too quickly for system operators. Although current grid investments are at unprecedented levels, network capacity shortages are currently more the rule than the exception.

Although current grid investments are at unprecedented levels, network capacity shortages are currently more the rule than the exception. In this webinar, we will view this theme from three different angles.

Issaoun vorig jaar promoveerde aan de Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen. 'De eerste afbeelding van een schaduw van een zwart gat is misschien wel de meest iconische en meest erkende astronomische afbeelding in vele jaren, bekeken door miljarden mensen. Sara speelt nog steeds een zeer zichtbare rol bij het verspreiden van de betekenis en implicaties van dit beeld voor de wetenschap en de samenleving als geheel. Dit maakt haar een rolmodel voor jonge aspirant-wetenschappers,' aldus juryvoorzitter Ralph Wijers. De prijs, een bronzen beeld en een geldbedrag van 10.000 euro, werd uitgereikt in de Oude Kerk te Voorburg.
