After nine years at the helm, Professor Jean-Pierre Gillet has handed over the leadership of the Department of Biomedical Sciences to Professor Marielle Boonen. This is an opportunity to look back on the significant growth of this department, which now trains nearly 500 students each year. 

Extensive deliberations have been conducted to strengthen the fundamental research focus of the Master’s program in Biomedical Sciences at UNamur by integrating the curriculum from the Master’s program in Biochemistry and Molecular and Cellular Biology (BBMC). This ambitious project has led to the design of an entirely new program, conceived to fully leverage the complementary strengths of these two programs.
