In depth insight into the translatome using state-of-the-art proteomics and ribosome profiling, applications on different in vitro model systems. Ghent University
From a proteogenomic approach, bioinformatic tools will be developped to combine ribosome profiling and mass spectrometry results. These tools will secure exhaustive analysis of different translation features and controls. Experiments will be performed in cell lines and afterwards in embryoid and organoid bodies, as a proxy to in vivo tissue.

Detecting, connecting and characterising drainage ditches from airborne LiDAR data KU Leuven
Artificial drainage networks sculpt landscapes as they result from the constant efforts of farmers adjusting landscapes to the needs and constraints imposed by agriculture. As structural landscape elements, they play a role in flood control and biogeochemical cycles. Furthermore, they are ecological hotspots and enhance connectivity within the landscape. Spatially distributed process models that estimate rainfall-runoff, predict flood levels ...
Assessing the controls on long-term preservation of organic carbon in soils: a field study in intertidal landscapes and a model assessment KU Leuven
The soil constitutes only the uppermost meter of our planet, yet it’s vital to life on Earth. From a human perspective, a healthy soil is necessary for people to grow crops and to sustain vegetation which convert CO2 from the atmosphere to the oxygen we all breath. From a natural perspective, soils are an important habitat and have a species richness higher than any other ecosystem, with a gram of soil containing several thousands of species ...

Jan van Eyck: Knowledge Profile, Artistic Practice and Reception Ghent University
Research conducted in the context of the current conservation/restoration project of Jan van Eyck’s Ghent Altarpiece and in preparation of our recent exhibition ‘Van Eyck: an Optical Revolution’, has opened new avenues for further innovative art- historical scholarship.
- It has been established now that Van Eyck was the first pictor doctus in the North, who was knowledgeable about antique texts, natural sciences (optics, alchemy) ...
