Proteinchemistry, proteomics and epigenetic signalling(PPES) University of Antwerp
Department of Veterinary Public Health and Food Safety Ghent University
Human Physiology and Sports Physiotherapy Research Group Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The research group MFYS explores the interaction of exercise on neurochemistry and neurophysiology. The research is concentrated at several levels: Fundamental – Physiological research; Applied – Clinical research and Benchmarking – Policy making research.
Most of the research projects progress through these 3 levels, starting from fundamental studies (e.g. animal studies) through applied, clinical trials, which could lead to ...
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 of Respiratory Diseases and Thoracic Surgery (BREATHE) KU Leuven
- Lung and chest wall mechanics: respiratory function in health and disease and effects of drugs. - Lung toxicology: fundamental mechanisms and epidemiologic research on occupational hazards. - Biochemical and metabolic functions of lung in health and disease and animal models. - Bronchial carcinoma: PET-scan, therapeutic modalities. - Respiratory muscles: animal models and changes in disease. - Difficult asthma. - Pulmonary embolism and ...
Medical Imaging and Physical Sciences Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The department of 'Imaging and Physical Sciences' consists of the subunits Radiology and Clinical Imaging (RADI), 'Radiotherapy' (KANK), 'Nuclear Medicine' (NUGE). The main research topics for these three subunits are: For Radiology and Clinical Imaging: 1. Diffusion and perfusion magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and their application to the characterisation of healthy and pathologic tissues; 2. Susceptibility MR imaging of trabecular bone and ...
Department of Animal Sciences and Aquatic Ecology Ghent University
Medical genetics of obesity and skeletal disorders (MGENOS) University of Antwerp
Laboratory of Virology and Chemotherapy (Rega Institute) KU Leuven
This unit designs and develops antiviral and antitumor agents, primarily nucleoside, nucleotide or oligonucleotide analogues but also other substances which interact with enzymes involved in nucleic acid metabolism (i.e. DNA polymerase, reverse transcriptase, thymidine kinase, thymidylate kinase, nucleoside phosphorylase, dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase, adenosine deaminase, S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase, IMP dehydrogenase, OMP ...
