Jaarverslag 2015

While strategic basic research in life sciences remains the cornerstone of VIB’s activities, translating the results of this research into applications that benefit society is our most important objective. We are proud to say that 2015 was an excellent year. We pushed the boundaries of science with 206 scientific breakthroughs, published in the top journals in the field (top Tier 5%). This is about 4 papers a week. In 2015 five VIB group leaders received an ERC grant, illustrating the international recognition of the quality and level of ambition of our research.
