The University of Limoges is repeating its Research Day on November 26, 2026, following the success of its first edition. This event, designed for a targeted ecosystem and not open to the general public, aims to affirm the institution's scientific vitality and foster new interdisciplinary collaborations.
The day will begin at 9:30 AM with a welcome address by Anne Massoni, Vice-President for Research, followed by conferences on various topics. Subjects covered include academic freedom, precision medicine in oncology by Élise Deluche, heat accumulators by doctoral student Marie Mazen, and new technologies for medieval heritage by Éric Sparhubert and Pauline Bessaguet.
The afternoon session, starting at 2:00 PM, will feature research on the intestinal microbiota in transplantation by Roland Lawson, the geography of environmental public action by Morgane Brissaud, numerical simulation for strokes by Guillaume Renedo, and fissure problems by Octavian Pop. The day will conclude at 3:45 PM with a review and future prospects by Vincent Jolivet, President of the University of Limoges.
The event pursues four strategic objectives: valorizing research and its actors, consolidating the university's recognition among partners, projecting a credible image in the face of societal challenges, and strengthening scientific cooperation. Target audiences include academic partners, the socio-economic fabric, and the internal university community.
The editorial line emphasizes dynamism and scientific popularization, with 15-minute presentations followed by discussions. Dedicated moderators, Frédéric Dumas-Bouchiat in the morning and Marie-Cécile Ploy in the afternoon, will lead the day. Video capsules highlighting the institution's centers of excellence will also punctuate the program.
