Prediction of gait neuromechanics following orthopedic interventions in children with cerebral palsy using computer simulations based on personalized models KU Leuven
Children with cerebral palsy (CP) suffer from a brain lesion that leads to impaired motor control, spasticity and muscle weakness. All these factors undermine the subjects' gait performance and, with time, will pose limitation to their mobility, independence and self-care. Orthopedic interventions aim at improving the walking performance. However, functional outcomes are not always as expected and, often, follow up surgery is needed to ...
A novel molecular and personalized prognostic and predictive approach to inflammatory bowel diseases KU Leuven
The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) represent a spectrum of chronic immune-mediated disorders of the gut and extra-intestinal organs with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) as the two main phenotypes. There is substantial inter-individual variability in the clinical presentation and the outcome of IBD. Despite the important progress in therapeutic discovery, clinical and mucosal remission rates leave large margins for ...
Developing process analytics-based real-time personalized feedback for smart learning environments KU Leuven
Personalized therapy for lung cancer patients using respiratory impedance models Ghent University
This project proposes a general identification framework in cancer patients based on modeling of tumor growth and modeling of respiratory impedance for further prediction of an individualized lung cancer therapy/treatment. The hypothesis of the research context is that the non-invasive nonmaneuver
forced oscillation technique can provide useful information about the respiratory function in lung cancer patients before and after treatment ...
Personalized therapy for lung cancer patients using respiratory impedance models Ghent University
This project proposes a general identification framework in cancer patients based on modeling of tumor growth and respiratory impedance for further prediction of an individualized lung cancer therapy (with prospective results in prediction of radiation-induced toxicity). The hypothesis is that forced oscillation technique can provide useful information about the respiratory function in lung cancer patients before and after therapy.

Development of a functional outcome prediction strategy for the design of orthoses. KU Leuven
Approximately 200 million European citizens suffer from a disorder to the ankle or foot, which is accompanied by a decreased functionality of and/or pain in the foot, ankle joint of knee joint. Due to the aging of the population the number of people suffering this disorder increases. Mostly ankle foot ortheses (AFO) are described in order to recover the gait function of the patients. AFOs are external aids to correct the movement of the foot. ...
