Little NIRVANA 2.0: a digital multipurpose pain management system for children KU Leuven
Metabolic potency of human intestinal microbiota towards ingested arsenic and consequences for microbe-host interactions Ghent University
This research will provide a more complete risk assessment for oral exposure to arsenic. A new in vitro module with the co-culture of microorganisms and Caco-2 cells will provide unique and novel information on As speciation changes. Elucidating the mechanism behind microbial As metabolism in the gut may point towards strategies to mitigate the risks from oral As exposure.

Preclinical characterization of miconazole potentiators as novel treatment of biofilm-related infections and epilepsy KU Leuven
Various fungal species possess the capacity to form biofilms, which are characterized by their high tolerance against most of the commonly used antimycotics. The genus Candida predominates biofilm associated fungal infections, which can occur in for example the urogenital tract (resulting in e.g. vulvovaginal candidiasis) and on medical devices. The incidence of recurrent oral and vulvovaginal candidiasis is significant and resistance against ...
