Belgisch team mag aan de slag met 1 miljoen dollar dankzij Chan Zuckerberg Initiative 10/09/2020 Vandaag kondigde het Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), het liefdadigheidsinitiatief van Facebook-oprichter Mark Zuckerberg en zijn echtgenote Priscilla Chan, de lancering aan van het Neurodegeneration Challenge Network. Dat nieuwe netwerk verenigt experimentele wetenschappers uit diverse biomedische onderzoeksgebieden, experten in de computationele biologie en artsen om de onderliggende oorzaken van neurodegeneratieve aandoeningen te onderzoeken. geen vertaling beschikbaar European Lifestars Awards 13/11/2018 Life Star award for best EU start-up (<£30M) goes to Aelin Therapeutics! geen vertaling beschikbaar Puzzling link between miRNAs and Alzheimer’s disease 26/10/2018 A team of scientists led by Bart De Strooper (VIB-KU Leuven) set out to identify small regulatory molecules called miRNAs that are involved in the development of Alzheimer’s disease. They found a handful of candidates that were upregulated in different animal models and in patients, but their link to the disease turns out to be more puzzling than anticipated. geen vertaling beschikbaar A protective role for progranulin in frontotemporal dementia and ALS 26/10/2018 In a recent study in Molecular Neurodegeneration, researchers from VIB-KU Leuven led by prof. Philip Van Damme, reveal neuroprotective effects of progranulin against TDP-43 accumulation and neurodegeneration. The findings suggest that progranulin treatment may not only be of interest to certain patients with frontotemporal dementia, but also to patients with ALS. geen vertaling beschikbaar Biotechdag 21/10/2018 CBD @ Biotechdag Check our instagram for pictures! geen vertaling beschikbaar Beautiful brains 18/10/2018 Brain Art exhibition at Liege Guillemins featuring works by several CBD scientists! geen vertaling beschikbaar Our immune systems are incredibly diverse. How much of that diversity is due to our genes? 16/10/2018 Each of our immune systems acts a little bit differently. Environmental factors have an impact, but so do our genes. A team of researchers in Leuven went looking for links between more than 10 million genetic variations and more than 50 immunological traits. Their findings help to explain why some people have a higher risk for immune diseases than others. geen vertaling beschikbaar 2018 PhD Class and PhD symposium 12/10/2018 2018 edition of our yearly PhD Class and Symposium, organized together with NERF. geen vertaling beschikbaar Making the right connections 02/10/2018 Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have uncovered a new molecular interaction that governs the formation of specific functional connections between two types of neurons. It gives an important clue as to how unique interactions give shape to precisely organized neuronal networks in the brain. geen vertaling beschikbaar Creating the world’s first complete fruit fly ‘cell atlas’ 22/09/2018 VIB team maps each individual fly brain cell throughout the aging process. Stein Aerts (VIB-KU Leuven Center for Brain & Disease Research) and his team have accomplished a world first: a gene expression map of every cell within the brain of an aging fly. While fly brains are comparatively simple, consisting of only 100,000 different cells, they are still complex networks that aptly serve as models for the human brain. Thus, the atlas is a key step toward a better understanding of human disease development.
