Hypertension and Cardiovascular Epidemiology KU Leuven
Responsible
The Research Unit Hypertension and Cardiovascular Epidemiology (HCVE) coordinated influential clinical trials, published in top-ranking journals, such as the Systolic Hypertension in Europe Trial (Syst-Eur), the Ambulatory blood Pressure monitoring and Treatment of Hypertension trial (APTH) and the Treatment of hypertension based on Home or Office blood Pressure trial (THOP). HCVE led the Data Safety and Monitoring Board of large clinical ...
Laboratory for Complex Genetics KU Leuven
Responsible
The Laboratory for Complex Genetics works on the genetics of complex (multifactorial) disease, with a special focus on neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer’s disease), and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We employ a translational genetics approach in the context of specific clinical questions: (early) diagnosis, disease subtypes, disease progression, therapy options... Specifically we use data from large-scale genomic datasets (genotyping ...
VIB CMN - Genetics of Alzheimer’s Disease University of Antwerp
Responsible
The research unit is committed to increase insight in the complex genetics of Alzheimer's disease and to investigate the translational potential of genetic discovery. We use genetic-epidemiological methods and advanced genomic technologies to identify molecular mechanisms that can serve as future targets for early detection, prevention and treatment. Techniques include 2nd and 3rd generation DNA and RNA sequencing on various biomaterials, ...
