We are exploring interactions between flaviviruses (Yellow fever, Dengue, Zika and West Nile viruses) and their mammalian and arthropod-hosts. On-going projects focus on deciphering mechanisms underlying virus-induced innate immunity and inflammation, using biochemical, virological […]
Virus-host ribonucleoprotein complexes and innate immunity The RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) play a major role in sensing intracytoplasmic RNA virus infection to initiate and modulate antiviral immunity. These RNA helicases interact with particular signatures of […]
The Parasites and Insect Vectors Department investigates the life cycle of parasites and their vectors. This research addresses global public health concerns and tackles the ongoing need for better prevention, control, and treatment. The department […]
