Biomaterials and Microfluidics
Tissue and Cell Homeostasis Eukaryotic cells contain extensive internal membranes defining many compartments having each specific functions. However these organelles are constantly moving and reshaping, still retaining their identity. The maintenance of cell compartmentalization […]

François Schweisguth
Dynamics of Developmental Decisions in Drosophila
Francois Schweisguth studied at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris (1983-88) and obtained a PhD in Developmental Biology in 1990 under the supervision of Jean-Antoine Lepesant (IJM, Paris) and Alain Vincent (CBD, Toulouse). He […]

Pascale Pescher
Molecular Parasitology and Signaling
Pascale Pescher is a research engineer in the unit ‘Parasitologie moléculaire et signalisation’. She started her career working on host-mycobacteria interactions and since 2006 joined the field of Leishmania research studying the molecular basis […]

Najma Rachidi
Signalling and host-parasite interactions
Dr. Najma Rachidi is a senior Researcher and the leader of the molecular parasitology team in the PARSIG unit. Her team investigates Host-pathogen interactions to (i) understand how Leishmania survives in immune cells, which […]

Genomes and Genetics
The teams of the department Genomes & Genetics are interested by questions related to gene regulation and evolutionary dynamics, including: Replication fidelity. Quality control of gene expression. Genetic diversity of populations and its impact […]

Developmental and Stem Cell Biology
Developmental biology first made its appearance at Institut Pasteur when François Jacob, François Gros and their colleagues extended their pioneering work on mRNA in bacteria to gene regulation in eukaryotic systems. This led to […]
