As it is the case with many theses, it would have been impossible to accomplish this dissertation without the material and immaterial help of many friends, colleagues, and family members. Although it is difficult (and trivial) to determine who has been of more value than whom, I think I should start with my family because of the simple fact that they, regardless of what has happened, have always been there. My three brothers Sinan, Aydin, Apo, my dear sister Sedef and my Mother gave meaning to my life by being proud of me. My cousins Sedef, Merve, Buse and my nephews Ibo, Filinta, Robin, Zana and Iskender made the years of my PhD cheerful.
Daan Scheepers and Colette van Laar became more than just nice colleagues to me. As much as Colette was my scientific sister, Daan was my scientific brother. Furthermore, I am very thankful to Daan that he always showed his confidence in me at the right times and at the right places. He was definitely one of the most supportive colleagues both emotionally as well as practically, by helping me to develop my most exciting line of research in the physiological lab.
All of my colleagues from the department earn special thanks, in particular Christine and Cora, for always being helpful and friendly, and Anne Marike, Astrid, Belle, Dancker, Dennis, Edwin, Floor, Jessanne, Katherine, Laetitia, Lukas, Maarten, Marielle, Sonya and Tomas for creating the perfect conditions for a nice, supportive and pleasant work environment, where I have been working with much enthusiasm for 5 years. I also like to thank Erik and Marijke for being such cool roommates.
I think it is almost redundant to mention the role of nice friends in an important period of my life, which my PhD training has been. It is self-evident that Anouk, Gwendid, Jasper, Krispijn, Noor, Peter, Ray, Rens, and Susanne are the ones on whom I have been counting the most. Thank you all for being such lovely friends.
I like to thank my beloved Joleen for her contribution to my personal and professional development and for spicing up my otherwise boring life!?
