Organisations
Applied Physics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
We are a group of enthusiastic multidisciplinary young researchers from both the Departments of Applied Physics and Photonics (TONA) and Physics (DNTK). We use experimental and theoretical methods (nonlinear dynamics, stochastic processes, complex systems, electromagnetism, general relativity, etc.) to tackle and answer some fundamental challenges about nonlinear, complex and time-evolving systems. This combination allows an imaginative and ...
Arthro-kinematics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
In the research unit ARKI, internal motion mechanisms in human joints are investigated in particular. Examples are the study of patterns of coupled motion in the cervical spine and in the lumbar spine as well as the study of locking and unlocking mechanisms in the joints of the extremities. Hereby, special attention is devoted to the variability of intra-articular rotation and translation components in healthy subjects and in patients. ...

Belgian Ageing Studies Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The Belgian Ageing Studies project (BAS) was developed by researchers at the Free University of Brussels (Vrije Universiteit Brussel) and University College Ghent (Hogeschool Gent). Established in the early 2000s, the BAS team engages in the scientific study of the social aspects of ageing. The team's research focuses on a range of social gerontological issues, including social, cultural and political participation in old age, volunteering, ...
Belgian-Argentinean Research Consortium on Fermented Foods and Beverages Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The research topic of BAFF is Exploring the microbial diversity of lactic acid bacteria and acetic acid bacteria in tropical fruits from the Northern Region of Argentina for the production of health-promoting and/or industrially relevant metabolites
Beta Cell Neogenesis Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Diabetes mellitus is a pandemic metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. The pathogenic process is the result of insulin insufficiency. Insulin is a peptide hormone produced in the beta cells of the pancreatic islets. Current diabetes treatments strive for glycemic control but fail to solve the underlying beta cell defect. This approach has increased the life expectancy and quality of most patients with diabetes but has ...
