About
This project aims at understanding the molecular basis of Candida albicans oscillatory hyphal growth. In collaboration with the teams of Catherine Villard at Université Paris Cité and Igor Kulic at the Institute Charles Sadron (Strasbourg), studying and modelling the behaviour of hyphae in confined micro-mazes, we will screen mutant collections to identify genes important in this process. We also will explore host-pathogens interactions to assess the possible role of helical growth in invasiveness.
