Research focuses on healthcare and energy by characterizing the structural and electronic properties of (macro)molecules. Researchers apply and develop a wide range of theoretical methods: quantum mechanics, molecular mechanics, hybrid QM/MM methods, and statistical mechanics. In a complementary way, UCPTS is developing expertise in structure determination and characterization of (macro)molecules through experimental physico-chemical methods (crystallography, calorimetric analyses, bio-spectroscopies). 

Research at UCNANO focuses on energy storage, pollution control and health, developing sustainable and innovative solutions to society's current challenges. Research focuses on energy, the environment, the conversion of waste into high value-added products, green chemistry and health. UCNANO develops high-performance materials with low environmental impact that promote the circular economy and biomedical applications, in heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis, nano- and bio-technologies, energy storage and conversion and cell therapy.

UCO's research focuses on the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. A first axis focuses on organic synthesis, applied to natural and non-natural molecules with biological and pharmacological activity and to the development of new reactions. The second focuses on bio-organic chemistry and the mechanistic study of enzymes. A third focuses on the study of the chemical reactivity of new acidic and basic species and their use in catalysis.

UCESA's research focuses explore corrosion and medical materials. Research is mainly focused on the chemistry and electrochemistry of surface materials and structured interfaces. Research focuses on the functionalization of surfaces, the electrochemical elaboration of biomaterials and anti-corrosion coatings, and the development and application of local electrochemical analyses.

Research in chemistry didactics is a relatively recent field of study at the University of Namur. Attached to the IRDENa research institute, the URDC aims to understand the didactic processes at play during teaching-learning situations involving content to be taught in chemistry. This research thus contributes both to the construction of cutting-edge knowledge in the field and to the development of new training devices and innovative pedagogies.

The wolf, long banished from our lands, has made a remarkable comeback in Wallonia since 2016. This mysterious being, now protected, arouses as much fascination as fear. Through an exhibition, held as part of the Cultural Project course, third-year history bachelor students have traced the history of the wolf. From April 11 to 27, 2024, the exhibition entitled "Même pas peur! Une évolution de l'image du loup à travers les siècles" invited audiences to plunge into the heart of a historical exploration.

As a member of the NAMEDIC research center associated with the NARILIS Institute, the CBS is actively developing research projects in medicinal chemistry. The laboratory's activities are based on close collaboration with other (inter)national groups. The efforts of CBS members can be grouped into 3 main lines of research: structural study of host-guest systems and (pharmaceutical)cocrystalsprotein crystallography and structure-based drug design.

The Microorganism Biology Research Unit (URBM) studies microorganisms (mainly bacteria) at all levels of integration (from cellular to molecular) and their relationship with eukaryotic hosts.

Information session content This session will address how a research result can be valorized through an entrepreneurial project thanks to the Win4SO program; and how Proof of Concept (POC) funding enables the development of a proof of concept on which an entrepreneurial project can be based. Who is this information session for? All researchers. Presentation Laurent Galas, EDER project coordinator, MIRVALIS Time and place of training The information session will take place on Monday 13/01/2025 from 12:45pm to 2pm at ADRE - NARC room, rue de Bruxelles, 55.
