SPEED-XM: SPectral Evaluation and Enhanced Deconvolution by eXtensive (Statistical) Modelling. Hasselt University

Dirk VALKENBORG
Centre for Statistics
A number of key-operations in pharmaceutical development, rely on a correct and timely evaluation of spectral data: e.g, liquid chromatography- mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and solid state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (ssNMR) are used for compound characterization and MS in a gas-phase setting is used to monitor the headspace of a chemical reactor during the production process of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Nowadays, high amounts ...

The Quest for Global Talent: (Top) Management Teams, Nationality Diversity, and Firm Performance Hasselt University

Innovation Management, Economics and Public Policy
In an increasingly competitive global environment, firms face the challenge to attract talented and highly skilled employees. Hence, firms often look abroad to hire talent. This also applies to the most important employees of the firm: the executives in its Top Management Team (TMT). In this project, we investigate if and when internationalization of the TMT affects corporate outcomes. In particular, we focus on TMTs ability to influence ...

Unravelling Discoloration Mechanisms of Red Organic Pigments in Historical Art Works (RED-OPEN). University of Antwerp

Koen Janssens
Toxicological Centre, AXES (Antwerp X-ray Analysis, Electrochemistry and Speciation)
An important issue encountered in the historical artworks is the fading of the original colors because of their strong light sensitivity, infamously leading to the discoloration of masterworks even within an artist's lifetime. This phenomenon is clearly evidenced in many paintings of 19th century European impressionist artists, such as van Gogh, in particular when Organic Red Pigments (ORP) have been used. The identification of these ORP in ...

Population genomics of freshwater sardines in Central African lakes, and its translation into fisheries policy Hasselt University

Zoology: Biodiversity and Toxicology
Small sardine-like freshwater fishes hold the potential to feed millions of people in the Global South. Yet, the biological mechanisms underlying the adaptation and resilience of these fishes to climate change and fishing pressure are poorly understood. Genetic approaches can provide valuable insights into stock structure, demography and adaptability of fish populations, which can be used to prevent overfishing. Despite the importance of this ...

Taking Control? Administrative Capacity-building in the European Parliament KU Leuven

Steven Van Hecke
Public Governance Institute
In contrast to most national parliaments, the European Parliament has consistently strengthened its position over the years. It has adapted its internal organization in order to maximize its influence over EU decision-making. In this respect, scholars have extensively examined the political organization of the EP, but our knowledge about the administrative organization is much more limited. However, studies have shown that administrative ...

Steven Van Hecke
Public Governance Institute

The sabbatical period primarily serves to fulfill my duties as co-editor of Cambridge History of the European Union (CUP, 2021), together with colleague Mathieu Segers (Maastricht University): an ambitious publication project consisting of 2 volumes and approximately 40 chapters . In addition, I will use this education-free period to successfully complete existing publication projects, including the planned monograph on European political ...

Sabbatical Pascal De Decker: The house in our head KU Leuven

Pascal De Decker
Urban Design, Urbanism, Landscape and Planning

The sabbatical period will be used for the writing of a book. During the last 20 years, separately, a very large number of in-depth interviews were done concerning housing (and location) options of people and households in Flanders and Brussel. The purpose is (1) to (re)analyse these interviews using a new way of looking and (2) contextualise the choices people and households make in order to understand why people are ‘housed’ as they are ...
