At the University of Namur, the MyCoach scheme offers invaluable help to support students in their academic career in the sciences. Spearheaded by the Faculty through Aurélie Tacheny, this project, initiated a year ago, aims to boost student success and perseverance by integrating a personalized support approach. The scheme, which is now being assessed, is based on regular meetings and individual follow-up (four key meetings with students, at strategic moments in the academic year).

In a new publication, the European Reference Genome Atlas (ERGA) announces the success of its pilot project. This pioneering initiative has brought together a vast collaborative network of researchers and institutions in 33 countries to produce high-quality reference genomes of 98 European species. This continental effort paves the way for a new, inclusive and equitable model of biodiversity genomics.

A 3rd-year veterinary medicine student with a passion for drawing, Élise Hottois has transformed one of the walls of the Faculty of Science into a veritable work of art.

DrawSuite's various applications are designed to provide tools for analyzing molecular structures and properties. These applications are integrated with various quantum chemistry software packages, including GAMESS US and Gaussian. The results of these programs are then used to generate user-friendly scientific representations.

DrawMol is a powerful graphical interface for visualizing and building molecular structures.

DrawSpectrum is a powerful graphical interface for generating and plotting spectra.

DrawVib is a powerful graphical interface for visualizing and analyzing vibrational spectra as well as atomic displacements of vibrational normal modes calculated by a quantum chemistry program.

DrawProfile is a powerful graphical interface for visualizing and analyzing the energy profile along an optimization, along a reaction coordinate, or along a distance, angle or dihedral angle PES scan.

By recreating an astronomical observatory on its campus, UNamur's ambition was to roll out an educational program open to all, enabling people to learn about science through the prism of sky observation. Five years later, the project has lived up to all its promises, and has become the driving force behind several partnerships in the field of scientific mediation.

The research of Dr. Nitin Bharti, a former PhD student in the Economics Department of the EMCP Faculty at the University of Namur, is covered in "The Economist", the prestigious international business magazine. The article deals with one of his favorite research themes: understanding the development of education systems and their link with economic growth and long-term inequality.

Anthony Simonofski and Olivier Sartenaer, have been elected to join the prestigious Collégium de l'Académie royale de Belgique. Bringing together young researchers (under 40) from Wallonia-Brussels who have particularly distinguished themselves in their careers, the Collégium's objectives include promoting the arts and research.
