Tracking Mood and Mood Disorder Using Mobile Sensing KU Leuven
Cholinergic and noradrenergic neuromodulation of memory and mood. University of Antwerp
Memory distortion and emotion: The effects of mood, arousal, and affective valence on the occurrence of false memories. KU Leuven
The role of neuro-cognitive research has related mood disorders Ghent University
Recent neuro-cognitive research has related mood disorders to a deficit within strategic attentional processes led by a frontocortical-subcortical network. The aim of this project is to explore these prefrontal attentional problems through rTMS and ERP brain researches while applying experimental attentional paradigms. These results prospect a functional relation between cognitive control and clinical indications.
Food digestion as influenced .by food structure: the role of pectin - food component interactions in plant-based food systems KU Leuven
To rationally design functional foods beyond basic nutrition, it is essential to develop an underpinning knowledge and understanding how food components and structures are transformed and absorbed during human digestion. This project aims to study the role of pectin - food component interactions in plant-based food systems and their consequence for food digestion. Pectin is an important structure-determining component in plant-based systems. ...

In silico simulation of the degradation of wood and wood products byIn silico simulation of the degradation of wood and wood products by Fungi. Ghent University
As wood is prone to biological degradation, it is necessary to gather knowledge concerning its susceptibility to fungal attack to strengthen its position as a building material. By using state-of-the-art techniques such as confocal microscopy and X-ray computed tomography, combined with advanced processing and simulation tools, fundamental insight can be acquired in the wood decay processes.
