Development and implementation of novel liquid biopsy NGS panels via the OncNGS precommercial procurement (PCP) initiative
laboratory, dry laboratory, and reporting workflow in a single procedure, offering short turnaround time and reasonable cost. Results The OncNGS consortium defined criteria for a versatile, modular, ...
Health networking on cancer in the European Union: a ‘green paper’ by the EU Joint Action on Networks of Expertise (JANE)
Cancer Centres and several networks of expertise (NoEs), which will be shortly deployed on items as complex and poor-prognosis cancers, palliative care, survivorship, personalised primary and secondary ...
Using a combination of short- and long-read sequencing to investigate the diversity in plasmid- and chromosomally encoded extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) in clinical Shigella and Salmonella isolates in Belgium

An interlaboratory proficiency test using metagenomic sequencing as a diagnostic tool for the detection of RNA viruses in swine fecal material.
millions of short sequences, and interpretation of the results. In this paper, we investigated the performance of mNGS on the detection of porcine astroviruses, a model for RNA viruses in a pig fecal ...
The prevalence of pathogens in ticks collected from humans in Belgium, 2021, versus 2017.
was repeated in 2021. METHODS: During the tick season 2021, citizens were invited to have ticks removed from their skin, send them and fill in a short questionnaire on an existing citizen science ...
Possible impact of culture-independent diagnostic techniques on surveillance of gastrointestinal pathogens in Belgium
gastrointestinal bacteria Abstract: Culture-independent diagnostic techniques (CIDT) are increasingly used to detect gastrointestinal pathogens as they offer short turnaround times, high sensitivities and ...
Modelling grass pollen load in temperate and Mediterranean European areas based on source spatial distribution
information of the land use and land cover changes for the last decades in Europe. Also, the influence function for the most important pollen sources can be combined with short-term meteorological data to ...
Metabarcoding and metagenomics techniques in monitoring airborne pollen
“GenapSys” technology and above all “Ilumina”, represent several platforms that sequence with the metabarcoding procedure short DNA fragments (reads) up to a few hundred base pairs in length. Other platforms ...
Herpes zoster in Belgium: a new solution to an old problem
candidate. HZ is vaccine-preventable and RZV provides a highly effective tool for HZ prevention. While reimbursement for some at-risk groups is welcomed, reimbursement currently falls well short of Superior ...
Magnitude and determinants of excess total, age-specific and sex-specific all-cause mortality in 24 countries worldwide during 2020 and 2021: results on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic from the C-MOR project.
short-term trends. Age-specific weekly excess mortality was similarly calculated using crude mortality rates. The association of country and pandemic-related variables with excess mortality was investigated ...
