As part of the Inforums and CyberExcellence seminars, we are pleased to welcome Dr. Ryan Wails (Georgetown University), who will speak to us about cybersecurity. You will find the abstract of his presentation and his biography below.No registration required.We hope to see many of you at this event!On the Interplay of Modern Traffic Analysis and Internet Censorship & Circumvention TechniquesIn this talk, I will review the current state of real-world Internet censorship and some tools that network users employ to circumvent censorship. Then, I’ll take a forward-looking view on how censors might incorporate modern ML-based traffic analysis techniques to block users, highlighting the need for stronger circumvention tools. Finally, I’ll discuss our new internet censorship evasion technique called Unidentified Protocol Generation (published at USENIX Security 2025), which is capable of evading detection by state-of-the-art traffic analysis.Author bio: Ryan Wails is a postdoctoral researcher at Georgetown University studying network privacy and security. He completed his PhD while working at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. This lab is known for originating the Tor network and establishing the PETs research community, which is now among the top international research communities in computer security. Ryan is a core contributor to the Tor project and has published in leading conferences on network simulators, privacy attacks, privacy-preserving measurements, path selection algorithms, censorship circumvention, and website fingerprinting. He has received several international distinctions, including Best Paper awards at top conferences and recognition at community events for his contributions.

On May 13, the software engineering project presentations (known as the MDL project) were held before a panel consisting of coaches and external clients who had come for the occasion. Through the seven projects presented this year, the students were able to showcase their work and explain how they collaborated with their clients to successfully complete their development projects.

What if, starting in high school, students could contribute to real scientific research? That is the goal of the “student-researcher” program, launched at UNamur more than fifteen years ago. Donaciene Quoirin and Lisa Salmon, law students, have experienced it firsthand. Their stories.

An innovative educational initiative was carried out at the University of Namur during the 2024–2025 academic year as part of the “Software Testing and Quality” course in the Master’s program in Computer Science, with a focus on software engineering. This initiative led to the publication of the SNAIL Report 2025, a comprehensive barometer of software development practices in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation.

While women are still in the minority in technical and scientific fields, confidence and passion have enabled some to overcome stereotypes and structural barriers. Women physicists and computer scientists are leading the way for those who cherish the bench and the screen, the numbers, and the machines.

Japan is almost 10,000 kilometers from Belgium, a country that fascinates, not least for its rich culture full of contrasts. Researchers at UNamur maintain close ties with several Japanese institutions, particularly in the fields of computer science, mathematics and video games. Let's take a look at some of these collaborations..

Space has become a major economic and strategic issue. As a member of the European UNIVERSEH Alliance, UNamur explores this space theme in its various departments, from physics to geology, via mathematics, computer science or philosophy. Without forgetting to address the general public, who still dream of the stars...

Stanford University has published a prestigious ranking that highlights the most influential researchers in a wide range of scientific fields. The list, based on bibliographic criteria, aims to provide a standardized means of identifying the world's scientific leaders. It is one criterion among others for assessing the quality of scientific research. Twelve researchers from the University of Namur are among them!

Animated by a desire to help the most disadvantaged, Father Pedro Opeka, a Lazarist priest, devotes his life to improving the living conditions of Madagascar's marginalized populations. His strong humanitarian commitment has resulted in the creation of Akamasoa, an association that provides shelter, education and healthcare to thousands of Malagasy people. By transforming the lives of an entire community in this way, he has become a symbol of hope in a country beset by poverty.

Take part in our open morning Given the works in the rue de Bruxelles and the renovation of part of the University parking lots, we invite you to use public transport whenever possible (train or bus) to reach Namur. UNamur boasts an ideal location, in the heart of the city just a five-minute walk from the TEC and SNCB train stations.If you're coming by car, take a look at the parking map provided. Look forward to seeing you on Saturday, June 29!

At a time when misinformation, post-truths and conspiracies are undermining confidence in science, UNamur welcomes SPiN (Science & Philosophy in Namur), a new interdisciplinary research center that questions the place of science in society. Founded last September by Olivier Sartenaer, Professor of Philosophy of Science at UNamur, SPiN brings together philosophers and scientists around a common vision: to develop a critical and accessible reflection on science in all its diversity..
