Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety

sample preparation methods allowed to obtain a full characterization to strain level of the spiked strain in the beef sample, carrying another non-pathogenic strain of E.coli. The simplest protocol was ...

Development of a data-intensive centralized system for surveillance and outbreak investigation of bacterial pathogens using whole-genome sequencing

a limiting factor, as full runs on Illumina sequencers typically take several days to complete. Therefore, a real-time data analysis protocol for Illumina sequencing was implemented, enabling data analysis ...

Development of molecular tools for rapid detection and quantification of indoor airborne molds to assess their impact on public health

patient.  To provide scientific evidence for the causal link between indoor airborne fungi and health problems, the full diversity needs however to be identified. This cannot be achieved by using a targeted ...

BruxAir. Short-term health effects of air pollution in the Brussels Capital Region 2004-2011: an epidemiological time series approach.

harmful even at current levels. These levels tend to be higher in densely urbanised zones; in cities. As such, almost everybody is exposed to outdoor air pollution. The health outcomes include the full ...

The ageing population: in-vivo study on the effect of age on cardiovascular physiology

identification of high-risk patients. Goal: An existing relation between arterial stiffness and biological age has been established before. However, most studies used cross-sectional cohort data to show this link ...

Exploring the added value of Whole Genome Sequencing in routine and pandemic viral surveillance

to monitor the circulating strains by collecting viral genomic data, characterising the viruses and if possible to link it to patient data. It is in particular important to evaluate the pathogenicity, ...
