Wired for recovery
Переглядів 103Місяць тому
A stroke changes someone's life completely, often leading to some form of disability. Recovery is difficult since neurons die as a result of blocked blood vessels, leaving behind tiny cavities in stroke survivors' brains. In her research, Ugur Kilic (KU Leuven - FWO) is trying to reach and stimulate the surviving neurons around the cavities to take the role of the lost ones and enhance recovery...
Fitness in science: growing muscles in the lab
Переглядів 68Місяць тому
Jasper Smet (KU Leuven - Kulak - FWO) is working (out) in the lab: he wants to grow 3D human muscles to help those with muscle diseases and injuries. By piecing together tiny muscle sections in the lab, he aims to create realistic human muscle models. These could be used to unravel how muscles work, test the effect of drugs, and one day perform transplants in people with severe muscle injuries....
Improving CPR training with virtual reality

Would you be able to perform CPR if a loved one suddenly collapses due to a cardiac arrest? Not enough people are properly trained in CPR; even when they are, they often feel reluctant to act in high-stress situations. "Standard CPR training is done on a manikin and doesn't prepare you for a real emergency, full of stress and chaos", says KU Leuven researcher Anne-Astrid Agten. She wants to cha...
What if teeth could heal themselves?
Переглядів 134Місяць тому
Did you know that growing up, one in four children worldwide experience a traumatic dental injury? Current treatments for these injuries aren't optimal, nor long-lasting, and render the tooth brittle, leading to possible tooth loss. But what if teeth could heal themselves? That's what Una Ivkovic (KU Leuven - FWO) sinks her teeth into: a hydrogel that guides stem cells to the injury to generate...

Bestaat er buitenaards leven? Tot heden heeft Thomas Konings (KU Leuven) nog geen buitenaardse buren ontdekt. Maar hij zoekt naarstig verder. Die zoektocht naar buitenaards leven start bij het zoeken naar bewoonbare planeten. Thomas en z'n collega's kijken hiervoor naar exoplaneten, planeten buiten ons zonnestelsel. Maar hoe bestudeer je planeten die miljarden kilometers van ons verwijderd zijn...
Need to pee again?
Переглядів 2112 місяці тому
You know the feeling of having to pee even though you just went to the bathroom 20 minutes ago? Then you may be suffering from an overactive 'bladder'. The problem is not so much in your bladder, but well over a meter higher, as it's your brain that decides when you need to pee. Anugrah Santoso (KU Leuven) researches abnormal brain patterns that can lead to this recurring urge to pee. She wants...
Climate change affects beer
Переглядів 702 місяці тому
Summer, sun, and a cold beer. ☀️ 🍺 It's the perfect combination for beer lovers. But did you know the changing climate creates challenges for brewers? It affects the starch, a key component of the barley from which beer is made. 🌾 As a result, from the same amount of barley, you get less alcohol and therefore less beer. Fortunately, bioengineer Charlotte De Schepper (KU Leuven) is developing so...

Переглядів 1092 місяці тому
3 miljard keer. Zo vaak klopt een hart gemiddeld in een mensenleven. Helaas geldt dat niet voor iedereen. Liefst één op de 10 Belgen sterft vroegtijdig aan een hart-en vaatziekte. Daar wil Nicholas Cauwenberghs (KU Leuven) wat aan doen. Via een gebruiksvriendelijke kit wil hij medisch ongeschoolde vrijwilligers inschakelen om zo o.a. in de supermarkt jouw risico op hart- en vaatziekten te helpe...

Wind farm noise impacts North Sea marine mammals
Переглядів 2012 місяці тому
Did you know Belgium uses more of its seaspace for wind farms than any other country in the world? And it's planning to double this by 2030! But the noise from these wind farms can disrupt marine life, like the harbour porpoises in our North Sea. Bob Rumes uses underwater microphones to research underwater noise and study the behavior of porpoises in different wind farms. This way, he wants to ...

The rise of CO2 levels has many harmful effects on our planet. A part of the solution is capturing CO2 emissions and transforming them into valuable chemicals and fuels, while potentially slowing climate change. Wenjian Hu (VITO - KU Leuven) explains how this carbon conversion works. His research aims to make the process more efficient, paving the way for scaling up from lab experiments to big ...
How to put wasted heat to good use
Переглядів 2363 місяці тому
Industries release enormous amounts of wasted heat: over 67% of all energy generated worldwide is estimated to be lost as heat! What if we could harness this industrial waste heat to warm our homes? This is possible using heat exchangers. These devices capture heat from industries and transfer it through heating networks to residential areas. Praharsh Pai Raikar (VITO TU Delft) is optimizing th...
