A little guide for advanced search:

  • Tip 1. You can use quotes "" to search for an exact expression.
    Example: "cell division"
  • Tip 2. You can use + symbol to restrict results containing all words.
    Example: +cell +stem
  • Tip 3. You can use + and - symbols to force inclusion or exclusion of specific words.
    Example: +cell -stem
e.g. searching for members in projects tagged cancer

About

Dr. Christophe d’Enfert is a Professor at Institut Pasteur and the Head of the Fungal Biology and Pathogenicity Unit at Institut Pasteur. Dr. d’Enfert gained his PhD at Institut Pasteur working on protein secretion in Gram-negative bacteria. During his post-doctoral training at the University of California at Berkeley, he studied protein secretion in yeast. Since 1992, he joined Institut Pasteur to study human pathogenic fungi and has developed both fundamental and applied research on two major fungal pathogens, Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus. Current research in his laboratory focuses on the development of tools for functional genomics of C. albicans and the study of C. albicans genome dynamics and diversity, biofilm formation and morphogenesis.
Christophe d’Enfert is also Vice President for Technology and Scientific Program. He joined Institut Pasteur management in March 2018 and is in charge of the running and development of core facilities, large infrastructure programs and the implementation of incentive programs.
Dr. d’Enfert was the Vice-Chair of Institut Pasteur Genomes and Genetics Department from 2009 to 2014 and the founding Chair of Institut Pasteur Department of Mycology from 2014 to 2018. He was also a Visiting Professor at Ecole Polytechnique in France from 2004 to 2016 and Scientific Director of the French Technology Research Institute BIOASTER.

Candida albicans colonization of abiotic and biotic surfaces

Christophe D’Enfert (PI)

Biofilms formed by C. albicans on indwelling devices play a major role in the persistence of nosocomial infections, largely because of their elevated tolerance to antifungals. The Fungal Biology and Pathogenicity Unit at Institut […]
