Movember campaign activities on campus
The lecture marks the final event of a campus Movember campaign organized in partnership with Think Blue Vlaanderen. Volunteers visited the Barrièrestraat campus to discuss their diagnoses with nursing students.
Students and staff will wear blue for a Dress in Blue Day on Friday, November 20, 2026. An inflatable model of a prostate will be displayed in the lobby, and Ghysel will visit that afternoon to answer student questions.
