Organisations
Department of Pharmaceutical analysis Ghent University
Aerts Lab Flanders Institute for Biotechnology
Laboratory of Reproductive Genomics KU Leuven
Our group focuses on:
(1) The development of wet-lab and computational methods for single-cell multi-omics analyses –including genome, epigenome and transcriptome analyses of single cells– using microarray and next-generation sequencing technologies. We furthermore automate these methods using customised liquid handling robotics and microfluidics.
(2) The application of these methods to study the nature, rate and mechanisms of ...
Laboratory of Computational Biology (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
Research in the Laboratory of Computational Biology is focusing on gene and genome regulation, with applications in Drosophila and cancer, and on integrative genomics, developing computational methods for genomic data integration and analysis of next-generation sequence data.
Laboratory of Translational Genetics (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
The overall aim of the research of the Laboratory of Translational Genetics, is to unravel the genetic predisposition to cancer and to annotate somatic changes in solid tumors with the ultimate aim to discover and functionally validate genetic biomarkers for cancer therapies.
Laboratory of Molecular Biology of Leukemia (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
The Laboratory of Molecular Biology of Leukemia tries to understand the genetic complexity of leukemia, with the aim to use that information to develop novel treatment strategies.
Leukemia is a genetically complex disease that is characterized by the accumulation of abnormal blood cells. The leukemia cells often harbor chromosomal defects and additional more sublte changes (mutations) in their genome. This information is used for ...
Research Group Molecular Neurobiology (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
Major research questions focus on cell type vulnerability and single-cell heterogeneity, protein aggregation and proteopathic stress, synaptic function, as well as microglial activation and neuroimmunology.
Department of Applied Mathematics, Computer Science and Statistics Ghent University
Laboratory of Multi-omic Integrative Bioinformatics KU Leuven
Modern life science research is a highly multidisciplinary endeavor often requiring the joint analysis of highly heterogeneous data sources, such as large-scale single-cell multi-omics datasets, structured ontology-driven annotations, unstructured published literature and imaging data. Using a holistic approach, one can often detect patterns which provide deeper insights into the biological and/or pathophysiological processes under study. ...
