Incontinence- Associated Dermatitis: Pathophysiological and histopathological research, development and validation of a core set for outcome reporting in IAD clinical trials, and an RCT to test a 3-in-1 protocol for IAD prevention. Ghent University
IAD is a type of irritant contact dermatitis caused by incontinence. The etiology is complex, the pathophysiology and histopathology are largely understudied. There is limited knowledge about prevention and treatment. The objectives are (1) to study the pathophysiology and histopathology, (2) to develop a core set for outcome reporting, and (3) to perform a RCT and health economic analysis for IAD prevention.
Development of methods for isotopic analysis of Li and B with multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and its application in paleoclimate and meteorite research Ghent University
Development of new methods for isotopic analysis of lithium and boron via multi-collector ICP-mass spectrometry, conssting of target element isolation and subsequent measurement of isotope ratios. Study of the giant meteorite impact (65 million years ago) via Li isotopic analysis of samples from the Cretaceous/Tertiary boundary and use of the isotopic composition of B in natural chronological archives as a paleo-pH meter/paleothermometer.

Research and development of a low-cost, portable visual field testing platform using a smartphone and virtual reality headset for the early detection of glaucoma KU Leuven
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, affecting about 64 million people. A large proportion of glaucoma cases worldwide are undiagnosed or sub-optimally managed. More than half of people living with the disease, in low-income countries, are unaware of the condition until it progresses to an advanced stage, resulting in visual impairment. Since adequate treatment significantly slows or halts progression of the ...
