They are 20 years old and are in BAC 3 Latin-French at the University of Namur. Since last November, they've been spreading the word via the Instagram and Facebook accounts they've created. Every week, they popularize Latin and try to raise awareness of this language that is too often described as "dead".

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2. COVID-19 was quickly declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on March 11, 2020.At the start of the pandemic, healthcare professionals were faced with the marketing of numerous kits designed to measure binding antibodies. The role of neutralizing antibodies as the best correlate of protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection was quickly highlighted. A neutralization assay with the use of pseudovirus was therefore developed by our team and compared with several binding assays.There have been considerable efforts to produce and clinically validate new vaccines against COVID-19. The CRO-VAX HCP study was designed to assess the humoral response in a population of healthcare professionals who had received two doses of COVID-19 BNT162b2 vaccine.Given the decline in vaccine efficacy over time and the emergence of variants likely to evade immunity, a third dose was quickly recommended by the authorities to boost immunity. This was administered to 155 volunteers in the CRO-VAX HCP study.Still facing a decline in vaccine efficacy over time and the emergence of new variants, a second adapted booster was proposed. In September 2022, 54 participants in the CRO-VAX HCP study received this second booster. The humoral response was assessed and neutralizing antibodies against several variants were measured. In addition, we also measured the cellular response using an interferon-gamma release assay. Compared with the humoral response, which declines considerably over time, the cellular response remained fairly stable. This could therefore explain why individuals with low antibody titers can still be protected against a severe form of the disease .

The morning will be marked by a lecture by Julien Berthaud, a specialist in the social integration of students, who will share his insights on how this integration becomes a genuine vector for success.Then, scientific papers and experience sharing will enrich our knowledge and spark constructive debate. Lunch will be an opportunity to discover innovative student projects, highlighted in an inspiring exhibition.The afternoon promises to be just as stimulating with a round table moderated by Sabine Henry, where experts will discuss service learning, educational entrepreneurship and spirituality. This dynamic dialogue will be followed by a closing activity: the fresco of engagement, a collective brainstorming session that will lay the foundations for an innovative educational game.Join us for this day of exchange and reflection, and help shape the future of education where student engagement and knowledge vivacity will be the cornerstones of a new educational paradigm.
