QUALIFY has been designed to foster the competitiveness of the SMEs in the agrifood sector by tackling a challenge that affects the involved regions and the whole EU (as stated by the European Commission)
Machine Learning for Single-Molecule and Single-cell Multiomics to Bridge Genotype and Phenotype. KU Leuven
Cells accumulate mutations throughout their lifetime. While most of these mutations are innocent passengers, some can affect cell phenotypes. So-called driver mutations provide a relative fitness advantage for their host cell, underpinning the clonal expansions that may ultimately fuel oncogenesis. While next-generation sequencing and single-cell approaches have revolutionized our understanding of somatic mutational processes and tissue ...

Improved clearance prediction using ex vivo and new in silico tools to bridge the in vitro to in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) gap KU Leuven
Despite the implementation of new technologies and approaches in drug discovery over the last years, 90% of drug candidates fail in clinical trials due to insufficient efficacy, toxicity or poor pharmacokinetics (PK) properties. To reduce this attrition rate due to PK, an accurate prediction of (hepatic) clearance (CL(H)), which determines drug exposure and dose prediction, at an early stage is indispensable. Although progress in the field ...

BactoHealing - Bio-Kin-Tsugi as a trans-disciplinary tool to bridge science and society and challenge the ethics of synthetic biology Ghent University
BactoHealing interweaves various fields to explore the idea of Kin Tsugi with living matter and research the ethical implications of biotechnology. Inspired by the ancient Japanese craft to mend ceramics with gold or silver, we propose re-evaluating the concept of repair and introducing bioengineering technologies for growing a “scar” of biomatter – with the help of fungus and bacteria – over the cracks. This novel interpretation of Kin Tsugi ...
