 +=== Location: how to find us? ===
 +
 +We are located in UA3.217, on the 1st floor (level 3) in building U, entrance door A, in the campus Solbosch (Ixelles). After entering building U from entrance A, climb the stairs on your left then turn left again and climb a few more steps to get to level 3. Then, look for the door UA3.217, with the sign QuIC.
