Essays on the Impact of Client Personnel and Regulation on Auditing KU Leuven
This dissertation aims to increase our understanding of how regulatory measures and client firm employees affect financial statement auditing. The chapters in this dissertation exploit two elements that are unique to statutory reporting and auditing in Belgium. First, all firms that are subject to filing statutory accounts with the Belgian National Bank are legally obliged to file a detailed social balance on employment data, alongside their ...

Gene editing for cystic fibrosis - tackling the translatability hurdle KU Leuven
This project is focussed on novel gene editing modalities and delivery methods to develop a gene therapy treatment for the monogenetic disease cystic fibrosis which primarily manifests with lung disease. Objectives: (1) To use gene editing (in particular base and prime editing) for efficient correction of CFTR (gene mutations in CFTR are responsible for cystic fibrosis) in primary human organoid and airway models. (2) To develop safe and ...
Mapping genetic interaction networks underlying complex traits via massively parallel precision genome editing KU Leuven
Finding all sequence variants that give rise to diversity among individuals and understanding how they affect specific traits is a key challenge in genetics. Through advances in genome sequencing we now know what the variants are that differ among individuals. However, with current methods it is difficult to pinpoint which of these variants contribute to a trait. Variants can also interact to mask or enhance each other’s effect, further ...
