What’s best to study humans and their infectious deseases than Human emulation system ? It’s now possible at Pasteur to develop real Organs-on-chips with cells from different sources, patient derived or cell line. At […]

This page contains the list of past meetings held by the Group for AIDS Research (Groupe de Réflexion SIDA) of the Pasteur Institute since 2014. The list of previous meetings held since 2002 can […]

The Group for AIDS Research (Groupe de Réflexion SIDA, GRS) organizes  bimonthly meetings and seminars around an HIV / AIDS research topic. Meetings and seminars are open to all. Meetings are usually held on […]

We obtained recent evidence that CD4+ T cells of HIV Controllers preferentially express a particular set of shared T cell receptors (TCRs) directed to the HIV capsid. We will  monitor the dynamics of these […]

The project aims at determining whether candidate HIV DNA vaccines can induce the type of high sensitivity CD4+ T cell responses characteristic of naturally controlled HIV infection. The main objective will be to devise […]

The CD4+ Tfh subset is dedicated to helping B cell and is essential to the maturation of high affinity antibodies. We are investigating whether the high avidity TCRs characteristic of HIV Controller CD4+ T […]

Research in the Viral Pathogenesis Unit focuses on (i) the pharmacological, biological, and physiopathological study of chemokines and chemoreceptors, with an emphasis on CXCR4 and CCR5, the two major coreceptors for HIV entry; (ii) […]
