Ecotoxicology and Polar Ecology Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The ETOX unit is mainly developing research in the domains of ecotoxicology of polar marine ecosystems (Antarctica, Greenland Sea, Barents Sea), mainly for the higher trophic levels (seabirds, marine mammals). The concentration, transfer, accumulation and detoxification mechanisms of stable pollutants (organochlorine pesticides, total and organic mercury) are investigated. The ecotoxicology of terrestrial ecosystems is also studied (stable ...
Molecular Parasitology Institute of Tropical Medicine
Introduction
MPU explored the diversity of Leishmania and leishmaniases for over 25 years, ‘from genomes to eco-systems’. As such, we have developed a relevant laboratory experience in (i) parasitology and (ii) molecular biology both in the high-tech context of a modern lab and in the working conditions of a laboratory in a tropical context.
Since 2002, the unit is headed by Jean-Claude Dujardin, zoologist (Facultés Notre Dame ...

Forest, Nature and Landscape KU Leuven
Overall, the research carried out in this laboratory focuses on the spatial and quantitative assessment of biological and man-induced patterns and processes at the landscape and habitat level both in rural, urban and natural settings. We aim at coupling traditional research on forestry, landscape elements, land use, and biotic communities with earth observation, spatial data sciences, the statistical modeling environment, and planning tools. ...
