VIB CMN - Microglia and Inflammation in Neurological Disorders (MIND) lab University of Antwerp
Liver Cell Biology Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The academic staff of the Liver Cell Biology Lab (LIVR) is formed by Prof. Leo van Grunsven (Head of LIVR) and Prof. Hendrik Reynaert (Head of Gastroenterology Department at the UZ Brussel hospital).
In general, research projects at LIVR aim to better characterize the different liver cell types in healthy and pathological conditions, and to gain a better insight in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis and the mechanisms of liver ...
Medical Genetics (MEDGEN) University of Antwerp
Laboratory of Stem Cell and Developmental Neurobiology (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
We want to force a breakthrough in the cure of neuronal and neurodegenerative disorders. This requires a deep understanding of normal brain function and translation of this knowledge into a solid mechanistic understanding of disease mechanisms.
Laboratory for Functional Epigenetics KU Leuven
Our research interest is in the epigenetic causes of human diseases. We tackle scientific problems by leveraging cutting edge genomic tools, in vitro and in vivo experiments and insights derived from patient samples. This enables us to address questions that were hitherto impossible to be answered. we am thus uniquely poised to characterize the nature of epigenetic signals that are changed in disease, how they are perturbed and how they ...
Laboratory for Genetics of Cognition KU Leuven
Research in the Laboratory for Genetics of Cognition focuses on the clinical, genetic and molecular characterization of genetic disorders, associated with intellectual disability, X-linked as well as autosmal. Besides gene identification, applying the latest technology, we are also involved in developing models for neurodevelopmental disorders using the induced pluripotent stem cell technology.
Laboratory for the Research of Neurodegenerative Diseases (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
The Laboratory for the Research of Neurodegenerative Diseases performes research into the fundamental molecular processes that underlay neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Their work has also contributed to insights into general physiologically mechanisms, in particular, the understanding of regulated intramembrane proteolysis as an important signaling mechanism in health and disease. They have demonstrated the ...
