KU Leuven is a non-profit university headquartered in Belgium. Founded in 1425, it employs approximately 13,910 people. The university operates as a multidisciplinary institution based in Leuven.
KU Leuven researchers on September 30 established for the first time in humans that butyrate, a substance produced by gut bacteria, can positively affect learning to cope with fear, based on a study of 180 healthy participants. Also on September 30, the institution warned about invoice fraud, where altered bank account numbers on seemingly authentic statements redirect payments to fraudsters. Earlier that day, a new study revealed how CT scans are providing insights into how thoracosaurs, ancient crocodiles, may have crossed the Atlantic Ocean 80 million years ago, using a fossil discovered over a century ago. Previously, on September 17, KU Leuven launched its spin-off Sequenza SCE, which aims to provide historical financial data for education and research, addressing current limitations in user-friendliness and data availability. This followed a September 16 report from the university highlighting that Bitcoin payments from reused wallet addresses can reveal more than intended about business transactions.
