Molecular Biotechnology of Plants and Micro-organisms
The main fundamental research questions in the MBPM division are related to the elucidation of environmental-induced signal transduction pathways in yeast, pathogenic fungi and plants and how these pathways affect phenotypes such as growth, development (plants), immune priming, stress tolerance, fermentation capacity, morphogenesis and virulence. The fungal groups also use yeast as ...

Laboratory of Molecullar and Cellular Therapy Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The focus of the Laboratory for Molecular and Cellular Therapy (LMCT) is directed towards the application of basic immunological knowledge and molecular biotechnology for the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of human diseases, including cancer, infectious disease and brain disease.
NanoHealth and Optical Imaging Group KU Leuven
The lab for NanoHealth and Optical Imaging performs research on the biomedical use of nanomaterials, with the primary focus on cancer research. The main research tracks are: studying the targeted delivery of nanomaterials in tumors, studying the therapeutic use of nanomaterials in cancer, either as a monotherapy or combined with more classical methods such as chemotherapy or immunotherapy.We further focus on developing optical imaging methods ...
Soft Matter, Rheology and Technology (SMaRT) KU Leuven
The aim of the Soft Matter, Rheology and Technology (SMaRT) division is to foster and conduct research on soft matter and the rheology of complex fluids on a fundamental level as well as their application to technical processes. Such complex fluids span a wide range of materials, including polymer solutions, melts and blends, emulsions, colloidal dispersions, surfactant solutions, etc.
A characteristic feature of such complex fluids and ...
