Congratulations to UMONS on its participation in the project, an ambitious programme aimed at strengthening the fight against malaria in the Democratic Republic of the Congo through , analytical chemistry and pharmacological research.

Together with the Université de Lubumbashi, the Université de Kinshasa, and with the support of de recherche et d'enseignement supérieur - ARES, UMONS researchers will put their expertise at the service of a major challenge: improving malaria diagnosis and contributing to the identification of new treatments derived from Congolese medicinal plants.

This project perfectly illustrates what makes our universities strong: scientific excellence, technological innovation and the ability to develop international partnerships that serve the common good.

It also demonstrates the 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗮-𝗕𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗙𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗮𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀.

Through initiatives such as KUPAMAL, our institutions make a tangible contribution to addressing global challenges while strengthening research and innovation capacities in partner countries.

Artificial intelligence is not an end in itself; it becomes a powerful lever when placed at the service of health, knowledge and sustainable development.

👏 Congratulations to the UMONS teams, Professor Sophie Laurent, and all the partners involved in this promising and hope-inspiring project.

🚀 A new UNESCO Chair highlights UCLouvain’s global research excellence

UCLouvain – Université catholique de Louvain has inaugurated a prestigious UNESCO Chair on Nature, Culture and Digital Technologies, a pioneering initiative exploring how digital transformation is reshaping our relationship with culture, heritage and the environment. The Chair is co-led by Professor Marie-Sophie de Clippele and Professor Olivier Servais and brings together expertise in law, anthropology and digital humanities.

As one of the first UNESCO Chairs dedicated to this unique intersection of disciplines, it will address key global challenges including AI ethics, cultural diversity in the digital age, environmental justice and the protection of cultural heritage.

This international recognition strengthens UCLouvain’s position within a global network of leading research institutions and demonstrates once again the excellence, innovation and societal impact of higher education in Wallonia and Brussels.

👏 Congratulations to UCLouvain on this remarkable achievement!

Quand la recherche de UCLouvain – Université catholique de Louvain éclaire le fonctionnement du cerveau dans l'espace🚀

Des chercheurs de l'UCLouvain ont publié leurs travaux dans la r***e scientifique The Journal of Neuroscience. Leur étude révèle que, même après plusieurs mois en apesanteur, le cerveau humain continue d'anticiper les effets de la gravité terrestre. Une découverte qui améliore notre compréhension de l'adaptation du cerveau à des environnements extrêmes et ouvre des perspectives pour la rééducation neurologique, les prothèses intelligentes et la robotique.

🎬 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲: 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝗹𝗴𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲… 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗮-𝗕𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗙𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 🇧🇪✨

This year at Cannes, three animated films benefited from the expertise of Belgian studios: 👉 𝘐𝘯 𝘞𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘴 (Critics’ Week) 👉 𝘑𝘪𝘮 𝘘𝘶𝘦𝘦𝘯 (Midnight Screening) 👉 𝘓𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘵 (Un Certain Regard)

Behind these projects are 𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗼𝘀 - Aromates (Liège), Waooh! (Liège) and Enclume Animation (Brussels) - involved in key stages from compositing to post-production.

Beyond technical performance, another point is worth highlighting 👇

🎓 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗮-𝗕𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗙𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴.

💡 For example, Enclume Animation was founded by former students of La Cambre - École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Visuels, a school that has been training some of the industry’s most skilled creators for decades.

More broadly, institutions such as La Cambre, INSAS and Haute École Albert Jacquard continue to nourish this unique creative ecosystem.

🌱 The result: a new generation of professionals able to combine technical mastery with artistic sensitivity — as illustrated by the delicate work on Le Corset, where watercolour and digital animation blend seamlessly.
At a time when artificial intelligence is transforming creative professions, this international recognition highlights one essential point:
👉 artistic excellence also relies on education, transmission, and the human touch.
👏 Congratulations to all the talents trained in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation who continue to make our animation shine far beyond our borders!

✨ A major scientific breakthrough driven by the academic excellence of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation!

Did you know that one of the oldest writing systems in human history has finally been deciphered… and that this achievement comes from the Université de Liège?

François Desset, a researcher in Ancient Sciences at ULiège, has succeeded in decoding Linear Elamite, a writing system nearly 5,000 years old, used in the south of present-day Iran.
Considered one of the three oldest known scripts—alongside hieroglyphs and cuneiform—it had resisted decipherment for more than a century.
Thanks to meticulous work, begun during fieldwork in Iran and continued through the study of dozens of inscriptions, François Desset managed to identify the keys to this purely phonetic system, the oldest ever attested.

🔍 This exceptional breakthrough goes far beyond a scientific exploit:
> it strengthens the international visibility of the University of Liège;
> it highlights the leading role of the academic institutions of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation in global research;
> and it opens a new window onto the history of ancient civilizations and the origins of writing.

🚀 Congratulations to François Desset and Université de Liège for this major contribution to human knowledge.
A remarkable example of ambitious, rigorous… and inspiring research!

À l’instar de Champollion, François Desset, chercheur en sciences de l’Antiquité à l’ULiège, est parvenu à déchiffrer l’une des plus anciennes écritures du monde : l’élamite linéaire, utilisée il y a près de 4800 ans dans le sud de l’Iran actuel.
