Our team has developed genetic tools allowing the study of the biology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We developed the first methods using molecular biology for the rapid diagnosis of tuberculosis and study transmission. We isolated […]
Annick Opinel, HDR (Paris VII), Ph.D (Paris X), B.A. (Middlesex Polytechnic, London) is an historian and philosopher of sciences. She joined the group in March 2010 after working in the “Centre de Recherches historiques […]
Protein folding and membrane interactions My research interests are mainly focused on protein folding, thermodynamics, hydrodynamics and protein translocation across membranes. In the BIM Unit, I am characterizing a bacterial toxin, the adenylate cyclase […]
My recent work focuses on the genetic and functional dissection of complex traits using the mouse genetic toolbox. After developing a collection of interspecific congenic strains which were instrumental in exploring the genetic control […]
I currently lead a research unit in the Virology department of Institut Pasteur. My research interests lie in RNA virus discovery, emergence, transmission, and evolution. Within the group, we use viral genomics to study […]
Since the beginning of my career, my goal has been to understand the mechanisms of effector immune responses to viruses and the related viral countermeasures. During my thesis, I studied the origin of type […]
The Parasites and Insect Vectors Department investigates the life cycle of parasites and their vectors. This research addresses global public health concerns and tackles the ongoing need for better prevention, control, and treatment. The department […]
