Vrije Universiteit Brussel Abstract: The research institute 'VUB' and the 'KONING BOUDEWIJNSTICHTING' have entered into a service-agreement concerning the project' Het in kaart brengen, het opzetten van netwerken en het aanzetten van expats en Europeanen tot een actieve participatie in het Brusselse verenigingsleven en civiele maatschappij. '. The research results can be transferred to the company, there can be a reasonable return in case of commercialisation or there is another kind of agreement on intellectual property, as outlined in the concluded agreement. Organisations: • City, culture and society Researchers: • ERIC CORIJN Semantics and syntax of the verb sentir: a comparative Romance study Ghent University Abstract: This project fits within the research into the possibly universal polysemy of perception verbs, but concentrates especially on a very complex but neglected element. More particularly, the project aims at the systematic analysis of the semantic and syntactic characteristics of sentir in Spanish and in comparative perspective with other Romance languages (French, Italian, Portuguese, Catalan). Organisations: • Departement of Romance languages (other than French) Researchers: • Renata Enghels Characterization of Th17 cells and cytokine-responsive T cell signaling molecules in rheumatoid arthritis: focus on the effect of adalimumab therapy. University of Antwerp Abstract: This project represents a formal research agreement between UA and on the other hand a private institution. UA provides the private institution research results mentioned in the title of the project under the conditions as stipulated in this contract. Organisations: • Translational Pathophysiological Research (TPR) Researchers: • Luc De Clerck TGA analysis Universiteit Hasselt Abstract: This offer represents a formal service agreement between the parties TANC (research institute at Hasselt University), and on the other hand, Heraeus Electro-nite. The research institute TANC provides Heraeus Electro-nite research results on 'TGA analysis' under the conditions as stipulated in the present contract. Organisations: • Applied and Analytical Chemistry • Institute for Materials Research Researchers: • Robert CARLEER Decision process of the juvenile judge about minors with psychiatric disorders Ghent University Abstract: A paradox exists between the number of minors with psychiatric disorders and the limited number of referrals to psychiatric facilities by the juvenile justice system. This paradox can be understood when we gain insight into the decision making processes of juvenile judges. This qualitative study examines the decision making process, based on filestudy, observations and interviews. Organisations: • Departement of Penal law and criminology Researchers: • Freya Vander Laenen Improving beta-cell function and identification of diagnostic biomarkers for treatment monitoring in diabetes. Vrije Universiteit Brussel Abstract: The lMIDIA project aims to develop novel approaches to assess, predict and prevent pancreatic beta-cell demise in diabetes patients, as well as to restore normal beta-cell mass and function for the treatment of diabetes patients. IMIDIA aims at delivering novel tools for the study of human pancreatic beta-cell development, function and survival, their modulation by potential therapeutic compounds and for in vivo beta-cell imaging. Furthermore, IMIDIA will deliver biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of beta-cell failure and for monitoring diabetes progression and success of disease treatment. The project will also generate knowledge on novel pathways and sites that control beta-cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis, and on the role of nutrient-regulated pathways and sites in controlling beta-cell mass and function.

• Henry HEIMBERG The vagus nerve as modulator of intestinal immune homeostasis K.U.Leuven Abstract: The central nervous system interacts dynamically with the immune systemto modulate inflammation through humaoral and neural pathways. Recently, the parasympathetic nervous system, via the vagus nerve (VN), has beenproposed to play a crucial role in the regulation of the immune response through the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAIP). Stimulation of the VN induces the release of acetylcholine that dampens the activation of immune cells by interacting with the alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. We recently provided evidence that VN stimulation potentlyreduces intestinal inflammation triggered by abdominal surgery suggesting vagally-mediated modulation of the intestinal immune system. Based onthese findings, we hypothesize that the vagal innervation of the gastrointestinal tract plays a major role in sustaining intestinal immune homeostasis. Preliminary experiments indeed show a reduction in T regulatorycells and loss of intestinal tolerance following vagotomy.

Wetenschappelijke begeleiding van Dhr. Michael Kapper. Vrije Universiteit Brussel Abstract: The research institute 'VUB' and the 'Van Karman Instituut - VKI' have entered into a service-agreement concerning the project' Modeling of high-enthalpy plasmas'. The research results can be transferred to the company, there can be a reasonable return in case of commercialisation or there is another kind of agreement on intellectual property, as outlined in the concluded agreement. Organisations: • Applied Mechanics Researchers: • CHRISTIAN LACOR Analysis of a water sample Universiteit Hasselt Abstract: This offer represents a formal service agreement between the parties TANC (research institute at Hasselt University), and on the other hand, Jaga. The research institute TANC provides Jaga research results on 'Analysis of a water sample' under the conditions as stipulated in the present contract. Organisations: • Applied and Analytical Chemistry • Institute for Materials Research Researchers: • Robert CARLEER FIRST-MM. Flexible Skill Acquisition and Intuitive Robot Tasking for Mobile Manipulation in the Real World. K.U.Leuven Abstract: No English Abstract Organisations: • Informatics Section Researchers: • Luc De Raedt Probabilistic programming using MCMC sampling for robotics. K.U.Leuven Abstract: The thesis will investigate the use of statistical relational learning techniques in the field of robotics, with a focus on the areas of robotic navigation and robotic manipulation. The goal is to have autonomous mobile manipulation robots that can perform complex grasping, manipulation and transportation tasks in a real world environment, andthat can autonomously navigate in indoor and outdoor environments in order to perform their tasks. In order to achieve this goal, statistical relational representations will be developed that generalize over various object and environment types and represent world knowledge. Concepts for probabilistic inference, relational knowledge representation and learning manipulation skills both from demonstration and imitation and prior experience will be developed. The thesis will build on current research in statistical relational learning, robot navigation and manipulation and imitation learning in order to develop new technologies advancing the state of Organisations: • Informatics Section Researchers: • Luc De Raedt • Bogdan Moldovan Calculation or Donation? Choosing Partners in the Formation of Coalitions at the Local Level Ghent University Abstract: This project scrutinizes the choice of partners to form a governmental coalition at the local level. It combines a quantitative approach testing the validity of hypotheses of the rational school of coalition formation (assuming the decisive importance of size and policy) with a qualitative counterpart drawing on insights of the inductive school (that refers to the importance of motivation, history and institutions). Organisations: • Departement of Political science Researchers: • Kristof Steyvers Record of fees and compensations: judicial DNA-research Universiteit Hasselt Abstract: This project represents a formal service agreement between the parties BIOMED (research institute at Hasselt University), and on the other hand, 'het Gerecht van Brussel'.
