Phenotyping socio−emotional profiles in presymptomatic and symptomatic neurodegenerative disorders. KU Leuven
The project uses a translational and multidisciplinary approach to investigate socio−emotional functions in neurodegeneration. We will first valorize research findings on socio−emotional deficits for use in clinical practice. The output objective is an automated test battery and classification program. The second aim is to phenotype emotion perception abilities in presymptomatic (genetic variants) and symptomatic neurodegeneration. The ...
Bimanual performance and life balance one year after stroke. Assessment, evolution and prognosis KU Leuven
Stroke remains one of the leading causes of disability with loss of independency for daily activities as a long-term consequence. The vast majority of daily activities demand the use of both hands working together. Up to 85% of stroke survivors present with upper limb impairment, which may compromise bimanual performance. To date, the vast majority of studies focus on unimanual recovery and provides scarce knowledge about recovery and ...
Formation of endothelial networks in human tissue-engineered skeletal muscle KU Leuven
Skeletal muscle is a complex tissue with a capacity to regenerate upon injury. However, when skeletal muscle loss is beyond the regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle, the muscle repair process fails and scar tissue replaces the damaged area with resultant functional impairment. Current treatments have several disadvantages and new strategies are being explored, such as skeletal muscle tissue engineering. The aim is to reproduce the native ...
