Research group of Intensive Care Medicine
Welcome
Welcome to the website of the Intensive Care Medicine Research Group. We are embedded in the Department of Acute Medical Sciences, part of the Faculty of Medicine, residing at the University Hospital Gasthuisberg, at the Catholic University of Leuven.
Our group combines a research laboratory with a large ICU (56 beds, more then 2000 patients a year). This unique setting allows a very fast and effective interaction among clinicians and basic researchers within the research team, allowing research from “bed to bench and from bench to bed”. Our translational research program comprises carefully designed studies in critically ill patients, studies in our unique animal model of prolonged critical illness as well as molecular and biochemical studies of precious patient samples.
