Diagnostic Parasitology Institute of Tropical Medicine

The Unit of Parasite Diagnostics studies human and animal African trypanosomiases, visceral leishmaniasis and Chagas’ disease. All these diseases are caused by infections with single-cell (unicellular) Trypanosomatidae parasites.

We focus on parasitological, serological, biochemical and genetic markers for diagnosis-, and determination of the disease stage, including treatment failure and healthy carier status. We are ...

Molecular biophysics, physiology and pharmacology University of Antwerp

The laboratory for molecular biophysics, physiology and pharmacology studies the underlying mechanisms of the excitability of the heart or nervous system. The electrical activity is regulated by ionic currents passing the plasmamembrane, originating from the opening and closing of ion channels. The determination of the molecular architecture, the modulation by external factors or drugs, the elucidation of the structure function relationship as ...

In Vivo Cellular and Molecular Imaging Vrije Universiteit Brussel

The In Vivo Cellular and Molecular Imaging (ICMI) Core Facility is specialized in nuclear and optical imaging of small animals. The lab is equipped with a myriad of multi-modality cameras and ex vivo analysis techniques to study tracer biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, dosimetry, and therapeutic efficacy of radiopharmaceuticals. The lab is situated in a biosafety level 2 environment with direct access to the animalarium.

Molecular Imaging and Radiology (MIRA) University of Antwerp

Responsible
The research of MIRA involves following research tracks: 1. Radiotracer development The radiopharmacy team develops and optimizes radiotracers (small molecule based as well as protein and polymer based). This research includes the development of activity based probes and tracer design for imaging of cell death and the tumor microenvironment. Furthermore, they produce research and routine tracers to support the preclinical neuroimaging and ...

Laboratory of cell biology and histology University of Antwerp

Responsible
The Laboratory of Cell Biology and Histology (CBH) is an interfaculty research group, uniting scientists from the Faculty of Biomedical, Pharmaceutical and Veterinary sciences and the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. Their joint mission is to elucidate the cell biological principles of human physiology and disease, so as to expose new entry points for diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Core research lines strongly align with key ...
