Scientific Committee

An international scientific event needs a strong and broad scientific committee.

Our little country counts no less than 12 universities, located in both the French and the Dutch parts of the country. With this rich diversity, the contacts worldwide are numerous, which allowed us to build a large scientific committee, composed of renowned persons from many countries.
