Endothelial immunosuppressive mystery genes for alternative immunotherapy: artificial intelligence-driven target discovery and lipid nanoparticle/RNA-based target validation. Flanders Institute for Biotechnology
Validation of novel immunotherapeutic targets against fibrosis in inflammatory bowel diseases KU Leuven
Market oriented validation of bivalent ligands: towards an improved treatment for multiple myeloma Ghent University
Our pre-track work with ‘in vitro suitable’ bivalent ligands suggests an improved therapeutic benefit over classic steroids used in the clinic for the treatment of the blood cancer multiple myeloma. We aim to gather industrially relevant in vivo proof-of-concept data with ‘in ...
Design, manufacturing, and validation of ecocycle electric traction motor KU Leuven
As a response to the need to decrease the transportation related emissions and energy consumption, today, all major passenger car and other light-duty vehicle manufacturers are broadening their electric vehicle portfolio. The dependency of the present electrical traction motors on the rare materials, such as rare earth permanent magnet materials, namely Neodymium-Iron-Boron magnets, is problematic from several viewpoints: they are imported ...
Metric development and validation of endourological diagnostic tasks (EUDT) training model for proficiency-based progression (PBP) training in urology KU Leuven
Endourological diagnostic tasks (EUDT) are the most frequently performed procedures in urology. The tasks mainly focus on the diagnosis of malignancy, and as such, are critical that urologists are able to perform effectively, efficiently and safely. Learning endourological tasks require step-by-step training and do have a learning curve. EUDT include rigid and flexible cystoscopy as well as ureterorenoscopy. Training in the skills laboratory ...
Automatic multi-sensor validation methods KU Leuven
Validation of a protein biomarker panel in exhaled breath condensate Ghent University
Development and validation of affordable analytical methods to assess the quality of antimicrobial and antihypertensive medicines KU Leuven
The quality of drugs is an important aspect in the framework of public health. However, developing countries like Ethiopia face regularly fraudulent practices and together with a lack of resources and well trained analysts, good quality drugs can not be guaranteed. Consequently, more control is necessary. This requires the availability of (relatively) affordable analytical methods. Since these are not always available, this project will ...
