Anne-Sophie Crosetti est postdoctorante Chargée de Recherche à l'Université libre de Bruxelles, financée par le FNRS. Elle a réalisé sa thèse en sociologie en tant qu'aspirante du FNRS sur la prise en charge de la planification familiale, de l'avortement et de la contraception par des groupes catholiques en Belgique durant la "révolution sexuelle", dans le cadre de l'action de recherche collective et interdisciplinaire "Sex&Pil". Elle est diplômée en sciences sociales de l’École Normale Supérieure de Paris et en sciences politiques de l’Université Paris VIII. Elle a également étudié en tant que research graduate student à l’Université de Cambridge. Son projet de recherche porte sur les mouvements "pro-vie" en Belgique, en France et en Irlande, dans une perspective internationale et socio-historique. Ses recherches se situent plus généralement au croisement de la sociologie du genre, des sexualités et du religieux.

Prof Hugo Mercier
L'Institut Jean-Nicod
Psychology and Education
Chercheur en sciences cognitives à l'Institut Jean Nicod à Paris (CNRS), Hugo Mercier étudie le raisonnement humain et la vigilance épistémique. Il développe avec Dan Sperber dans The Enigma of Reason une nouvelle théorie interactionniste de la raison, selon laquelle la raison humaine aurait évoluée car elle nous permet d’échanger arguments et justifications les uns avec les autres. Son dernier livre Not Born Yesterday: The Science of Who we Trust and What we Believe présente les résultats d'études expérimentales — dans le champ de la psychologie cognitive évolutionniste — qui permettent d'avancer le fait que nous sommes équipés de mécanismes cognitifs pour décider que croire et en qui placer notre confiance, et que nous sommes plus enclins au scepticisme qu’à la crédulité.
Prof Bruno Danis
Université Libre de Bruxelles
Sciences
I am a Full Professor, and Head at the Marine Biology Lab, Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) . I received my PhD from the ULB in 2004, and then joined the ANDEEP3 expedition to the Southern Ocean onboard the RV Polarstern, before taking the lead of two projects aiming at offering free and open access on Antarctic biodiversity for science, conservation and management purposes (SCAR-MarBIN and ANTABIF). I led a pioneering expedition to the Western Antarctic Peninsula (Belgica121) to test the concept of using a low-environmental impact platform to carry out marine biodiversity census in the Southern Ocean. More recently, I led the TANGO1 expedition to the same region. I have recently taken the co-direction of a research station in Belaza, Madagascar, with U. Toliara, U. Mons and U. Liège. My research focuses on biodiversity/biogeography, ecotoxicology, numerical ecology and biodiversity informatics, and I thrive to channel these efforts for conservation purposes, with a special attention devoted to Open Science.
