Congo basin integrated monitoring for forest carbon mitigation and biodiversity (COBIMFO). Ghent University
The relationship between C stock, fluxes and biodiversity in the tropical rainforest of the Congo Basin is investigated. Therefore, intensive monitoring of these variables will be performed in pristine and intervened dense tropical forests in Yangambi, along a forest productivity gradient.
The project is a partnership between UGent, Royal Museum for Central Africa, ULB, UCL, National Botanic Garden of Belgium, Royal Belgian ...

Quantum complexity, quantum entanglement and the emergence of spacetime Vrije Universiteit Brussel
structured non-local quantum entanglement may underpin the
emergence of spacetime from the underlying degrees of freedom,
and the recovery of information from black holes. To realize this
picture in the model that describes M-theory, the master theory in 11
dimensions from which all string theories descend, we must learn
how to describe and ...
SOX11 as mediator of the adrenergic cell state in neuroblastoma: towards cell precision medicine Ghent University
Neuroblastoma (NB) is a pediatric tumor arising from the peripheral nervous system with still poor survival for high-risk patients despite intensive therapy. Recent studies discovered two different phenotypic subpopulations in NB tumors, i.e. so-called adrenergic (ADRN) and neural-crest cell/mesenchymal like (NCC/MES) cells. The latter cell type is more chemo-tolerant and enriched in post-therapy and relapse tumors. We recently identified ...
