I am an Infectious Disease Epidemiologist working in the Unit for Mathematical Modeling of Infectious Diseases. My work is aimed at unraveling the complexities of vector-mediated arbovirus transmission using data-driven statistical and mathematical modeling approaches, and […]
After my PhD project on interactions between an insect-specific virus, its host Aedes aegypti and arboviruses, I currently work on RNA virus discovery of mosquitoes and vertebrate wildlife. Describing novel viruses provides better understanding […]
The recent epidemics of Lassa fever in Nigeria, Ebola virus disease in West Africa, MERS-CoV in the Middle East, Yellow Fever in DRC, Angola and Brazil, avian influenza in Asia and Africa and Zika […]
Alexis Robert joined the MMMI unit in February 2016 for a six month internship in order to complete his Master’s thesis. His research interest focus on developing mathematical tools to study the mechanisms of […]
I am currently a permanent CNRS researcher in the team of Louis Lambrechts, studying interactions between Aedes mosquitoes and arboviruses. I work on the interactions of Aedes aegypti with dengue virus, and am particularly […]
My project is on the evaluation of the vector competence of mosquito populations Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus to Zika virus, an arbovirus which is emerging in Brazil. I also investigate the role of […]
My project is to evaluate the risk of emergence of urban yellow fever in Brazil related to the expansion of the mosquito Aedes albopictus. This project is divided into 2 main tasks: (i) estimation […]
