Investigation of bidirectional pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction between vicagrel, a novel analogue for the antiplatelet drug clopidogrel, and atorvastatin KU Leuven
Research Aim 1)To investigate the risk and mechanisms of a possible bidirectional pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction (DDI) between vicagrel, a potential replacement drug for the antiplatelet drug clopidogrel, and atorvastatin, a cardiovascular drug often used in clinical combination; 2)To develop a novel complex physiologically-based pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PBPK-PD) model that can describe concentration-time profiles of ...

Vapour deposition of metal-organic graphene analogue nanofilms for memory devices KU Leuven
The rapid advancement of the digital era requires novel materials and device concepts for data storage. Memristors are a promising class of memory devices in which information is stored and extracted as changes in the electrical resistance of a storage medium. So far, the working principle and potential of memristors have been illustrated only using readily available ‘off-the-shelf’ materials and components. However, to reach the ...
A new approach to assess geothermal reservoir potential: An integrated core and analogue study for the Buntsandstein Formation of the Campine Basin (NE Belgium) KU Leuven
Geothermal energy can allow Flanders to make the transition towards a sustainable and low-carbon economy, either through the production of geothermal electricity or heat. Geothermal reservoirs in Flanders are either made of siliciclastic sediments or carbonate rocks, of which the former will be investigated during this research. In general, this project focuses on siliciclastic geothermal reservoirs, which are suitable for low-temperature ...
Using cold-water coral mini-mounds as analogue for giant mound growth: assessment of environmental drivers and anthropogenic impact (MINIMOUND) Ghent University
The MINIMOUND project aims to study the initiation, growth and demise of cold-water coral mounds in relationship with climatic and hydrocarbon-seepage related processes. This study will focus on three provinces of mounds along the Biscay margin. In the first place, we aim to establish a chronostratigraphic framework and decipher the palaeoceanographic changes within the last 15000 years
