Je suis chef du service de Physique des Surfaces et Interfaces qui regroupe une vingtaine de chercheurs à l’Université de Mons et j’ai eu l’occasion de travailler avec Mr Vaillant pendant presque 10 ans au sein du laboratoire C’est dire si j’ai appris à connaître le candidat. Durant cette période, j’ai non seulement eu le plaisir de le fréquenter mais j’ai aussi pu apprécier sa rigueur et son dynamisme. Il s’agit sans nul doute d’un chercheur confirmé doté d’un potentiel scientifique élevé. Du point de vue scientifique, Alexandre a été la cheville ouvrière de plus de 7 publications scientifiques de haut niveau ce qui est remarquable en si peu de temps. L’une d’elles a été aujourd’hui citée plus de cent fois dans des revues référencées (Scopus). C’est dire sa qualité ! Rapidement, il a été désigné comme responsable de toutes les interactions du laboratoire avec les milieux industriels. Je voudrais ici souligner sa grande rigueur durant ces années de recherche. Il a ainsi pu résoudre des problèmes pointus dans la science du coating, des lubrifiants, du mouillage ... Dans toutes les contributions d'Alexandre, j'ai pu apprécier la volonté de combiner des techniques expérimentales diverses pour arriver à une compréhension profonde des phénomènes étudiés. Il me semble aussi important de souligner ici sa capacité à collaborer avec les chercheurs d’autres laboratoires, reflet de son esprit ouvert. Nul doute que ce candidat réunit toutes les qualités requises pour pouvoir réaliser une brillante carrière professionnelle. Formulons à présent un jugement d'ensemble. Monsieur Vaillant est un scientifique de haut niveau, faisant preuve de beaucoup d'originalité et s'impliquant à plein dans de nombreuses collaborations scientifiques locales ou internationales. Il est aujourd'hui auteur d'une dizaine de publications de haut niveau international et de plusieurs brevets de classe mondiale. C'est donc sans réserve aucune que j'appuie sa candidature à un poste à responsabilité. Prof. Joël De Coninck
