The Simon-Loriere Lab is part of the Virology department of Institut Pasteur, and works on RNA virus discovery, emergence, transmission, and evolution. We use viral genomics to study evolutionary processes of RNA viruses, with a focus on respiratory viruses and arboviruses.
We combine molecular epidemiology studies thanks to amazing collaborations within the Pasteur Network and experimental work, both in vitro and in vivo. We work a lot with our great colleagues at the Mouse Genetics laboratory, the Ecology and Emergence of Arthropod-borne Pathogens unit, the Structural virology unit and the Virus and Immunity Unit.
