The Lab for Molecular Biodiscovery at the University of Leuven (Belgium) is interested in the identification and validation of novel small molecules with significant pharmacological potential using a zebrafish-based platform, with a special interest in small molecules from natural sources. The lab has major efforts underway to find hits with novel chemical structures in the areas of epilepsy and BMP/Wnt signaling.

Our research is aimed at better understanding of the VWF/ADAMTS13/platelet axis in hemostatic, thrombotic and inflammatory processes. We use various in vivo models, combined with intravital microscopy to study molecular and cellular interactions. In particular, we focus on designing novel therapeutic strategies that interfere with von Willebrand factor function for treatment of thrombo-inflammatory disease.
