Joost Wauters- Ziekenhuis University (Leuven, Belgium) Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) typically occurs in a severely immunocompromised host and isolation of Aspergillus species in the immunocompetent host is mostly considered colonization. Overall, the six-week mortality […]
NMR is a powerful and versatile tool for biology that is well know for its use in structure determination and dynamics of macromolecules. In the context of the future creation of a biological NMR […]
Icy basic training – Hands on. The Image Analysis Hub of the Institut Pasteur and the Bioimage Analysis group organize a day dedicated to a hands-on introduction to Icy. Icy is the software for […]
Neuronal circuits are constantly refined and remodeled in response to activity. Activity-induced plasticity is responsible for the brain’s ability to adjust to changing conditions, as in the sculpting of circuits during development, adaptation after […]
“The intricate world of Inter-organ communication” Organ-to-organ communications are critical to living systems and play major roles in homeostasis. Drosophila is a prime system for systematically identifying mechanisms involved in organ communication because libraries of transgenic RNAi lines are […]

“Brain, Barriers, and Behavior in Drosophila” Abstract: Glial cells are an essential component required for the functionality of all complex nervous systems. In lower vertebrates and invertebrates, glial cells establish the blood-brain barrier and […]
“Temporal construction and deconstruction of neuronal identities in development and disease: a human pluripotent stem cell perspective” Targeted differentiations of pluripotent stem cells open new avenues to study the development, evolution and disease of […]
“Mechanisms of regeneration of the damaged liver” Following injury the normal liver regenerates through hepatocyte proliferation. Following severe or prolonged liver injury hepatocyte or cholangiocyte regeneration can be impaired and senescence can occur. In […]
Abstract: Epithelia are planar tissues, separating the internal environment from the external environment in many organs. I will present two recent studies that examine the behaviour of cells within monolayers. A major epithelial function […]
VIROLOGY DEPARTMENT SEMINAR Jacques LEIBOWITCH Anti HIV Maintenance Therapy Intermittent, in Close Cycles, Anti Retrovirals Retain Efficacy ICCARRE and its 3 days, 2 days, 1 day a week cycles, open the chapter of Long Lasting Post […]
Abstract Zika virus (ZIKV) is an emerging virus of the Flaviviridae family, transmitted by Aedes species mosquitoes. The high level of dengue virus (DENV) seroprevalence in areas where ZIKV is circulating and the immunological […]
The annual meeting of the French Society for Cell Biology will take place on Tueday May the 29th in the Insitut Cochin. We will hear about work from students and postdocs supported by the […]
