Membrane Separations, Adsorption, Catalysis, and Spectroscopy for Sustainable Solutions (cMACS) KU Leuven
cMACS forms an interdisciplinary and international team that pioneers research in catalysis, energy, spectroscopy and separations. A molecular understanding of physical and chemical phenomena during synthesis and application of catalysts, sorbents and membranes is central to allow molecular and structural design of novel materials and directed engineering of applications. The study of porous materials, membranes, films and their interfaces ...
Surface and Interface Engineered Materials KU Leuven
The main activities of our research group are related to the development of new and improved materials systems and advanced production methods. The research focus is on alloy systems as well as on novel materials such as nanomaterials, coatings and thin films.
Biomedical MRI KU Leuven
Biomedical MRI: Hydrogen, carbon, fluorine, phophorus and sodium Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy studies of metabolic pathways and kinetics in the liver, the heart and the skeletal muscle; in vivo, in perfused organs and in isolated cells. - Design of multinuclear NMR radiofrequency coils for simultaneous observation of various nuclei. - Signal processing and quantification for accurate determination of metabolite ...
Molecular Virology and Gene Therapy KU Leuven
The division Molecular Virology and Gene Therapy aims at developing novel therapeutics and diagnostics starting from basic research into the molecular cause of disease and employing the most advanced biomedical technologies. Research can be basic, applied or technological; in all cases our research aims at future applications in medicine.
Major disease areas are AIDS and Parkinson's disease. Other interests are gene therapy of cystic ...

Follicle Biology Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Basic aims of the Follicle Biology Laboratory, led by Prof. Ellen Anckaert are the design and validation of new culture systems for ovarian follicles and unripe egg cells to establish practical, applicable strategies for fertility clinics.
Fundamental and pre-clinical research:
1) optimization of multistep systems for in vitro follicle activation, growth and maturation: mouse in vitro models for culturing ovarian follicles ...
Cell Differentiation Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Our team wants to find ways to generate new insulin-producing, glucose-regulated "beta" cells that can be used for transplantation in diabetes patients and ways to regenerate beta cells in the pancreas. We study rodent experimental models as well as human cells. The first aim is based on tissue engineering starting from: 1. Exocrine pancreatic cells: reprogramming of adult exocrine cells to endocrine cells, or transdifferentiation in culture. ...
