The neural basis of action understanding. KU Leuven
Memory formation covers unique and divergent stages. After performing a new action, encoding takes place and forms a representation of this action in the brain. The novel memory trace is then stabilized through subsequent stages of a time dependent process referred to as memory consolidation. Consolidation makes the memory more resistant against competing influences, interference or forgetting in the absence of further ...

Coulomb excitation of Polonium isotopes. KU Leuven
The neutron-deficient polonium isotopes, with only 2 protons outside the Z = 82 shell closure, are situated in an interesting region of the nuclear chart. In the neighboring lead (Z = 82) and mercury (Z = 80) isotopes, experimental and theoretical efforts identified evidence of shape coexistence. Shape coexistence is the remarkable phenomenon in which two or more distinct types of deformation occur in states of the same angular momentum and ...

Training in hypoxia: physiological adaptations in skeletal muscle. KU Leuven
The interest in exercise in hypoxia for benefits in sport, fitness and revalidation is growing. Therefore, it is important to identify the physiological adaptations of exercise in hypoxia. First, we want to explore the effects of hypoxia training on exercise performance. Secondly, we want to investigate the consequences of exercise ...

The public life of the university/academic: en analysis based on Actor-Network Theory. KU Leuven
The current condition of the university is subject of profound debate. Over the last years, it has
become clear that the university is facing important challenges on the one hand, and increasing
societal demands on the other hand. The main research interest of this dissertation is to come to a
more profound understanding of the university today, with a special focus on what the role of digital
actors is herein, but without ...
