We focus on H3N2 swine influenza virus, a likely candidate for a future pandemic. Furthermore, we aim to improve the interpretation of serological tests against swine influenza viruses in humans.

BIOMED provides 'het Gerecht van Tongeren' research results on the judicial DNA-research under the conditions as stipulated in the present contract.

The clinical features of this disease are caused by an unexplained loss of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons that are important for controlling voluntary movements. Recent studies have identified genes that are mutated in families with PD, and the functional characterization of these PD-related genes has provided important clues on the potential pathobiological mechanisms leading to disease. Mutationsin LRRK2 have been recognized as the major prevalent geneticcause of familial and sporadic PD. Not much is known about the functionof this protein, but strong evidences point its kinase activity as crucial for LRRK2-driven toxicity. Therefore, the identification and characterization of the substrates of LRRK2 are needed, and the aim of this project is to tackle this issue by using relevant cell and animal models available, in combination with a set of optimized biochemical protocols.

This will be done by developing and implementing a set of cost-effective, innovative and transnational actions aimed at attaining a good status of surface and groundwater bodies. By monitoring the transnational effect of these actions, the foundation for the development of a transnational surveillance system for the Water Framework Directive (WFD) programmes of measures for the Scheldt IRBD will be laid. With this project aim, the Scaldwin-project capitalises on the results of the Interreg IIIB NWE Scaldit-project. The pressure on the water system differs between regions. Most of the investigated transboundary or similar surface waters and groundwater layers are at risk of not achieving a good status as asked by the WFD. All competent authorities of the Scheldt IRBD will have to take extra measures. Organisations: • Earth System Sciences • Geology Researchers: • Kevin DE BONDT • Philippe CLAEYS Exploring novel functions of peroxisomes and peroxisomal proteins. K.U.Leuven Abstract: Peroxisomal metabolism is essential in mammals for the normal functioning of diverse tissues including brain, eye, bone, liver, kidney, and testis. This is clear from patients with global or specific peroxisomal deficiencies that develop debilitating diseases often leading to premature death. During the last decades the metabolic role of peroxisomes has been extensively studied in liver and the factors involved in the import process have been largely elucidated, clarifying the genetic basis of peroxisomal diseases and allowing the generation of mouse models.However, there are still a number of unexplored functions of peroxisomes in several tissues, their contribution to aging and to other common diseases such as cancer is still questioned, and a major unresolved issue is the transport of metabolites across the peroxisomal membrane. By combining expertise from different research groups with expertise in cellular apoptosis (P. Agostinis), diabetes (F. Schuit), peroxisome biogenesis (M.

K.U.Leuven Abstract: The main target of the Speech-part of the TTNWW-project is to create aneasy to use, distributed speech recognition platform for non HLTexperts who do not have any background knowledge of speech recognition. It is our intention, once the project is up-and-running, to place the speech recognition platform at one of the official CLARIN-centres. The distributed speech recognition platform must help the researchers from the humanities with:a) solving their research questions andb) defining newresearch questions.The distributed nature of the project makes it possible to easily change/replace existing recognition tools with better ones without the need building (and distributing) new software programs.The CLARINcompatibility of both tools and data guarantees a smooth working of the program (no need to constantly change the input/output of the tools and restructure the data).
