The department of 'Imaging and Physical Sciences' consists of the subunits Radiology and Clinical Imaging (RADI), 'Radiotherapy' (KANK), 'Nuclear Medicine' (NUGE). The main research topics for these three subunits are: For Radiology and Clinical Imaging: 1. Diffusion and perfusion magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and their application to the characterisation of healthy and pathologic tissues; 2. Susceptibility MR imaging of trabecular bone and ...
A physical therapist helps patients with several physical complaints by practicing multiple excercises of physiotherapy.
Nuclear physics:
The main research topics of the Robotics & Multibody Mechanics (R&MM) research HRI (cHRI). Core technology is the design and control of variable impedance adaptability. Most of the prototypes build in the lab are designed and actuators for embodied intelligence principles as safety, energy efficiency and group can be divided into physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) and cognitive constructed in house. Their most well known robots ...
The Centre for Logic and Analytic Philosophy (CLAW) co-ordinates all research at the Institute of Philosophy concerning logic and analytic philosophy, with a special focus on the philosophy of particular sciences.
The Centre cooperates with other Belgian scholars at the National Centre for Research in Logic and international researchers in philosophy of science research programmes. The Centre is very active in the organization of ...
The Materials Physics (IMOMAF) research group focuses on developing innovative solutions to successfully bridge the gap between fundamental research and industrially compatible materials systems and processes. This is done in a wide range of fields, from nano and quantum physics to electronics, advanced sensing, and healthcare materials. Cooperation with industrial partners plays a crucial role in the IMOMAF research group.
