Erasmus Mundus External Cooperation Window Bolivia, Argentina and Peru (BAPE).<br />

K.U.Leuven<br />

Abstract: The BAPE project brings together 20 higher education institutions with the common purpose <strong>of</strong> pursuing the development <strong>of</strong> the<br />

concerned countries, in a global arena in which a crisis <strong>of</strong> still unknown magnitude seems to impair the goals <strong>of</strong> welfare and security already<br />

reached. The projectforesees 122 mobility flows for third countries nationals and 31 for Europeans. Concerning European mobilities certain<br />

mobilities have been favoured, in order to facilitate the transfer <strong>of</strong> know-how on: upholding a high <strong>of</strong> knowledge and research (through doctoral and<br />

post-doctoral mobility); the implementation <strong>of</strong> trainings responding to new skills required by international labour market (through teaching staff<br />

mobility); building administration capacities relative to quality assurance, implementation <strong>of</strong> ECTS (through administrative staff mobility).<br />

Epidemiological research into the prevalence and impact <strong>of</strong> (heavy) metals in the company Indaver.<br />

University <strong>of</strong> Antwerp<br />

Abstract: Several studies demonstrate that in case <strong>of</strong> combined exposure to heavy metals, metals can interact with each other and that the<br />

increased / decreased presence <strong>of</strong> a particular metal can affect the potential toxicity (both negative and positive) <strong>of</strong> another metal. Evidence for this<br />

is<br />

particularly found in animal research while the number <strong>of</strong> well-documented studies in humans is relatively limited. The objective <strong>of</strong> this research<br />

project is to measure the multi-element status <strong>of</strong> the entire working population <strong>of</strong> Indaver and to study the cumulative toxic or protective effect <strong>of</strong><br />

moderately elevated multi-element exposure <strong>of</strong> heavy metals on relevant clinical and biochemical outcome parameters <strong>of</strong> the kidney.<br />
