The Covid-19 pandemic is a human tragedy that has caused millions of deaths worldwide and put our entire society under great strain. But it has also been a tremendous collective moment for many UNamur scientists, whose research continues in an attempt to better understand this disease and its consequences.

The three Belgian scientific experiments selected to be carried out on board the International Space Station (ISS) during astronaut Raphaël Liégeois' mission in 2026 have just been unveiled by the Federal Science Policy Public Service (Belspo). One of them is carried by a team from UNamur for an experiment at the crossroads of biology and physics aimed at analyzing the resistance of the "blob", an atypical unicellular organism.

An international research team led by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences has uncovered how pharmaceutical pollution alters the behaviour and migration patterns of Atlantic salmon in nature. Professor Eli Thoré, from the Department of Biology and the ILEE research institute at the University of Namur, contributed to this groundbreaking field study, which has just been published in Science.

The 24th edition of Printemps des Sciences was held from March 24 to 30 throughout Wallonia and Brussels, on the theme of "Eau-rêka". The aim of this annual event is to make science and technology accessible to as many people as possible. Mission accomplished for this new edition!

The 11th edition of the Ma Thèse en 180 secondes competition was held this Friday, March 28, 2025 at the Faculty of Science. Three biologists will represent UNamur at the Belgian final, to be held in Mons on May 21.

How can we better understand the landscape around us? For over ten years, UNamur has been offering continuing education in landscape analysis. What does this concept involve? What are its objectives? And how is landscape analysis practiced? Answers with Corentin Fontaine, Coordinator and Trainer for "Les Ateliers du Paysage" organized by UNamur's center for continuing education in science and mathematics (CeFoSciM).

A delegation from the Université de Namur took part in an exploratory mission to the Université Cheikh Anta Diop (UCAD) in Dakar, Senegal. The aim: to discover the research carried out in the field, meet UCAD researchers and initiate future collaborations between the two institutions.
