ArcK Hasselt University
ArcK is the research group for the domains of architecture and interior architecture of Hasselt University. Domains which imply a spatial synthesis of material, cultural, aesthetic, social, urban, and societal aspects within a given situation or context. We believe that research within these domains should reflect this complexity.
As a multidisciplinary team (including designers, urbanists, art historians, engineers, psychologists, and ...
Construction engineering Hasselt University
The research activities of the research group CERG are situated within two research lines. The first research line studies the behaviour of structural components in concrete and other quasi-brittle materials. A first research topic of this research line investigates the behaviour of building components, such as masonry walls and prestressed concrete members. The focus lies on the development of finite element models which allow for assessing ...
Department of Developmental, Personality and Social Psychology Ghent University
Astronomy and Astrophysics Research Group Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The VUB Astronomy and Astrophysics department is involved in research at the forefront of the field. We study the origins of cosmic rays, which tell us about the most energetic events in the universe (thousands of times more energy than man-made experiments can produce). We observe and model radio galaxies with supermassive black holes at their centers. We look for elusive dark matter by studying the movement of the gaseous components of ...
Haesler Lab Flanders Institute for Biotechnology
ADReM Data Lab (ADReM) University of Antwerp
Astronomy KU Leuven
The institute concentrates on the study, both theoretical and observational, of the variability of stars and the properties and evolution of stars and circumstellar matter. - Stellar pulsation theory - asymptotic theory - nonlinear pulsations. - Asteroseismology from space. - Interpretation of photometric and spectroscopic variability of massive stars. - Chemical evolution of low- and intermediate-mass stars. - Studies of the properties of ...
Beta Cell Neogenesis Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Diabetes mellitus is a pandemic metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. The pathogenic process is the result of insulin insufficiency. Insulin is a peptide hormone produced in the beta cells of the pancreatic islets. Current diabetes treatments strive for glycemic control but fail to solve the underlying beta cell defect. This approach has increased the life expectancy and quality of most patients with diabetes but has ...
