His long-term collaboration with Dr. Aniruddha Chatterjee recently resulted in the first collaborative framework agreement between the University of Otago and UNamur, as well as an international Erasmus+ (EU) credit mobility funding this scientific mission. Frédéric Silvestre deepened his understanding of the advanced DNA methylation techniques employed by Dr. Chatterjee's team, including their bioinformatics workflows and innovative approach to epigenetic editing. He has given several seminars presenting LEAP's research on mangrove rivulus and turquoise molefish. He also presented at the Australasian Epigenetic Alliance conference and had the opportunity to explore potential new collaborations with other departments, including zoology, sustainable development, chemistry and marine sciences.

Quentin Willot (Biology) has just joined URBE for a two-year post-doctoral position (Marie Sklodowska-Curie Action, supervisor: Alice Dennis) on a project called ChillAnts. This project focuses on the study of adaptation to extreme temperatures in holarctic (trans-Beringian) ant species, from a physiological, ecological and evolutionary point of view. Quentin will present a more technical aspect of his work (Thermal Death Time Curve Modelling).

This year, starting at 2pm, the collectives will climb aboard their finest floats to offer a crazy cartoon-themed procession for St. Nicholas.WHERE?The procession will start from the rear parking lot of the Acinapolis in Jambes before taking to the streets. HOW?The procession is open to all (excluding students too).Wristbands for the procession are priced at 13€ (pre-sale).Please note : wristband and cup MANDATORY, only ST NIC 2024 GOBELETS WILL BE FILLED.

Jean Loubry invites us to stay at home, in our beautiful Province of Namur. So this will be a journey among poets from Namur and the surrounding area. Some names are more famous than others, but what we hope above all is to help you discover the many facets of a poetry that is so close to home and yet sometimes so little known.

Mozart's music seems to flow from the source , or to sparkle like champagne , so obvious, pleasant and natural is it . The diversity of melodies seems limitless , the "Divine Mozart" had such an imagination...And yet, when we strain an attentive and discerning ear, we notice that all the first movements of all Mozart's sonatas, concertos, symphonies, quartets, etc. are built exactly and rigorously on the same pattern.But what is this common, inescapable framework to which Mozart submits with equal talent and humility, and which he plays with with all the genius we know about him?And which can be found, incredibly identical, in the Little Night Music or the 40th Symphony, for example?This is what Charlotte Messiaen invites us to discover, in words and in music!"

Since the dawn of time, mankind has perceived the Sun's influence on our life on Earth. However, in recent decades, with the widespread use of technology and electricity in all our activities, our society has become increasingly closely exposed and vulnerable to bursts of solar activity. Today, more than ever before, the Sun interferes with every aspect of our daily lives, including major societal issues such as energy and climate change.This conference will provide an opportunity to review the impressive phenomena of solar activity and their short- and long-term impact on our terrestrial environment: solar flares, coronal mass ejections, particle storms. All this magnetic activity originates inside the Sun, and is marked by an 11-year cycle that has varied considerably over the centuries. We'll be taking stock of our current understanding of this cyclical phenomenon, which turns out to be a genuine magnetic recycling process.As we pass through a peak in solar activity today, this will be an opportunity to look ahead to the future and the central role the Sun can play as a source of multiple energies to build a viable future for mankind. For us, the future will inevitably involve the Sun! More info Cost sharing Utan members in good standing : 5€Non-members : 7€
