Peptide diversification: Pd-catalyzed derivatization of lead compounds in aqueous medium. University of Antwerp
Peptide diversification: Pd-catalyzed derivatization of lead compounds in aqueous medium. Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The structural modification aims to increase biological potency, selectivity, water solubility, pharmacokinetics, therapeutic index and general ADMET properties. The most efficient way to realize this chemical modification requires a diversification reaction in a late stage of the synthesis route. Bio-orthogonal ...
Identification of potent single-domain antibodies against the malaria sporozoite through a synthetic single-domain antibody library containing unconventional diversification strategies. University of Antwerp
"With a pinch of salt: habitat variability promoting plasticity and hampering diversification in a hostparasite system?" Hasselt University
Developmental mechanisms of diversification of visual areas in the mouse cerebral neocortex KU Leuven
The higher-order (HO) cortex substantiates higher-order brain functions and is evolutionarily elaborated in humans, with expanded territory and subdivisions (areas) that are devoted to distinct neural computations and functions. However little is known about how HO cortical areas emerge during cortical development. Recent studies in neonatal mice suggested parallel HO thalamocortical pathways from the lateral posterior nucleus (LP) drive the ...
Combating Malnutrition in Africa Through Diversification of the Food System KU Leuven
Various forms of malnutrition, including hunger, micronutrient deficiencies and non-communicable diseases caused by unbalanced nutrition, threaten food security in Africa. The project HealthyDiest4Africa is based on the central hypothesis that diversification of the food system helps to combat all forms of malnutrition while minimizing its environmental footprint. To this aim, we will monitor dietary diversity in eight African countries ...
Combating Malnutrition in Africa Through Diversification of the Food System Ghent University
The more diverse the food system is, the easier it is to combat malnutrition and maintain biodiversity while reducing its environmental footprint. The EU-funded HealthyDiets4Africa project will focus on food security in Africa, which is struggling with various forms of malnutrition (hunger, micronutrient deficiencies and non-communicable diseases caused by unbalanced nutrition). The project is based on the central hypothesis that ...
Diversification of funeral preferences from a moral and sociocultural perspective. University of Antwerp
Refining the scope of application of EU fundamental rights in light of the diversification of EU law sources KU Leuven
The European Union protects fundamental rights through a variety of sources, including the Charter of fundamental rights and the general principles of Union law enshrined by the Court of Justice. However, unlike other national or international legal systems, EU fundamental rights do not bind the Member States in all situations. A link to EU law must be demonstrated in order to be able to invoke these rights before the Court of Justice of the ...
