Spider silk : a novel optical fibre for biochemical sensing Ghent University
German and English corporate mission statements as hybrid internal/external communication: Expressions of competence and HR competencies KU Leuven
German and English corporate mission statements as hybrid internal/external communication: the expression of competence and HR competencies Heidi Verplaetse and Birgitta Meex – Lessius University College Many different participants are involved in the text type of mission statements, both as referred parties as well as addressees (cf. Stallworth Williams 2008). In these terms the question concerning intended readership arises: are mission ...
Genetics of the thrombomodulin-endothelial cell protein C receptor system and the risk of early-onset ischemic stroke KU Leuven
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Polymorphisms in coagulation genes have been associated with early-onset ischemic stroke. Here we pursue an a priori hypothesis that genetic variation in the endothelial-based receptors of the thrombomodulin-protein C system (THBD and PROCR) may similarly be associated with early-onset ischemic stroke. We explored this hypothesis utilizing a multi-stage design of discovery and replication. METHODS: Discovery was performed ...
Early assessment of Integrated Multi-satellite Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement over China Ghent University
Weaving our way towards a new generation of fibre-optic chemical sensors based on spider silk Ghent University
Flow cytometric sexing of spider sperm reveals an equal sperm production ratio in a female-biased species Ghent University
Producing equal amounts of male and female offspring has long been considered an evolutionarily stable strategy. Nevertheless, exceptions to this general rule (i.e. male and female biases) are documented in many taxa, making sex allocation an important domain in current evolutionary biology research. Pinpointing the underlying mechanism of sex ratio bias is challenging owing to the multitude of potential sex ratio-biasing factors. In the dwarf ...
