TOBII TX 300 (TOBII Technology AB, Danderyd, Sweden) Ghent University
The TOBII TX300 is a fully-integrated, remote desktop-mounted eye tracker. Tracking of both eyes (pupils) is
based on infra-red light emitting diodes that create corneal reflections of the participant’ eyes. These diodes and
the tracking cameras are integrated within the system and located underneath the 23 inch (58.42 cm) TOBII
computer screen.
- Other available eye trackers are normally separate from ...
HIV nuclear import and chromatin reading as novel drug targets KU Leuven
The replication cycle of HIV is a complicated interplay between viral and cellular proteins. Until now antiretroviral therapy mainly targets the viral proteins although the interaction between the viral and cellular proteins could be interesting new drug targets. This strategy is mainly of interest because cellular proteins are much less prone to mutations which gives the virus less opportunity to develop drug resistance. My laboratory has ...
Can high-resolution optical projection tomography of the interplay between cryptococci and macrophages unravel the enigmas in pulmonary and cerebral cryptococosis pathogenesis? KU Leuven
Scientific state-of-the-art & aims of this proposal:
Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii are encapsulated yeasts that can cause life-threatening disease in both immune-competent and immune-suppressed individuals (e.g. cancer therapy patients or patients with AIDS). Cryptococcosis affects the lung and may spread to the brain, manifesting itself by meningitis or pseudocystic brain lesions. It ...
PRomoting Omics for the non-invasive Screening for Subclinical ARTerial Disease (PROSSART) KU Leuven
PROSSART focuses on asymptomatic individuals having stiff large arteries with altered central haemodynamics that increase the load on the heart and/or subclinical atherosclerotic alterations along the arterial tree. PROSSART is nested within FLEMENGHO, a family-based population study, and within uPROPHET, a cohort of over 350 heart transplant recipients. The project’s objective is to identify and validate novel urinary proteomic and ...
