Laboratory of Peroxisome Biology and Intracellular Communication KU Leuven
The Laboratory of Lipid Biochemistry and Protein Interactions conducts high quality fundamental research, focusing on the role of peroxisomes in complex cellular processes (lipid metabolism, ROS/RNS metabolism, organelle dynamics and dysfunctions) in mammals and aims to provide insight in inherited and other human disorders linked to these organelles via cellular studies and mouse models.

Laboratory for Dystonia Research (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
The Laboratory for Dystonia Research investigates dystonia pathophysiology. They predominantly focus on the molecular and cellular pathology of hereditary dystonia, but also have long-term goals of determining neurological defects and identifying therapeutic targets to treat dystonia.

Laboratory of Neuronal Communication (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
The research interests of the Laboratory of Neuronal Communication are defined as:
Altered synaptic communication has been identified as one of the leading causes of various neurological and psychiatric disorders, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unresolved. Hence, establishing an understanding of synaptic communication at the molecular level in relation to neurological disease, in particular Parkinson’s disease, would be ...
Laboratory of Protein Phosphorylation and Proteomics KU Leuven
- We investigate the regulation of (patho)physiological processes via reversible protein phosphorylation, and explore the therapeutic potential of the kinases and phosphatases involved. Focus is on Protein Kinase D (PKD) and Protein Phosphatase 2A (PP2A), but increasingly also on broader (kinome and phosphatome wide) approaches to systematically identify kinases/phosphatases that are implicated in (patho)physiological ...
