Clinical and public health research to improve maternal and newborn health & to control sexually transmitted infections Institute of Tropical Medicine
The overall aim of the proposed staff exchange programme is to establish a long lasting collaboration between Moroccan, South African and European research teams involved inclinical epidemiological and public health research. This effort should ultimately lead to improved mother and child health and better control of sexual transmitted diseases.
The proposal is therefore structured in seven work packages:
1. Management and ...
the development of a public health monitor for mental health KU Leuven
The reform of mental health care started more than a decade ago. Several innovations characterize this thorough transformation process (such as the creation of mobile teams for both crisogenic and more chronic patients, the thickening or intensification of care, the concretization of the recovery vision, the establishment of psychological care in primary care, ...). In order to monitor the actual effects of the reforms in a dynamic way and ...

respiratory pathogens with pandemic potential, based on historical
data of SARS-CoV-2. Clustered social contact patterns have been
pivotal in combination with stochasticity to explain disease spread
and heterogeneous behaviour. Therefore, we focus on mathematical
models that accommodate heterogeneity in infection acquisition and

Food biodiversity and associations with cancer risk and mortality - from metabolic pathways to public health recommendations mutually beneficial for human and planetary health Ghent University
The hypothesis underlying the project ‘BioHealth’ is that food biodiversity in human diets contributes to better health outcomes while simultaneously protecting our ecosystems. Therefore, BioHealth aims to assess how species diversity in diets is associated with cancer risk and mortality in European populations. Biological pathways underlying these associations will also be investigated as well as co-benefits for planetary health. BioHealth ...
