Organisations
Cell Genetics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Responsible
The laboratory for Cell Genetics (Cytogenetics) studies variation in genotype and phenotype, cell division pathways, cell death and genetic changes relevant for the increase of cancer in human. Genotoxicity tests assess the induction of DNA damage, gene mutations, structural and numerical chromosome aberrations. Their predictivity for cancer induction is supported by international studies relating mutations and activation of cancer related ...
Research Centre for Operations Research and Statistics (ORSTAT), Leuven KU Leuven
Responsible
In operations research, a challenging research area is combinatorial optimization. Next to exact methods such as branch-and-bound, branch-and-price, also approximation algorithms are studied. Assignment and scheduling problems, winner determination problems and research on client-oriented vehicle routing problems are some of the subjects under study. Further emphasis is placed on machine scheduling, resource-constrained project planning and ...

Responsible
The research lines of the Department of Data Analysis are:The design of analytical methods to support decision-making useAxiomatic analysis of mathematical models in social sciences (meta theory, decision theory, social choice theory, fuzzy sets and bibliometrics) and empirical validation of the axiomsMathematical modeling and data analysis in psychologyAnalysis of fMRI dataMultiple representations and ICT in statistical education
Geology Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Kinanthropometry Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Kinanthropometry is primarily oriented in human biology, studying human size, shape, proportion, body composition, maturation and gross function, to help understanding human movement in the context of growth, exercise, performance and nutrition. The main emphasis of the research carried out currently is related to the continuation of LEGS, called LEGS II. The purposes of the project are: (a) study of the tracking of health and performance ...
