This project intends to share expertise, developments, equipement and bioinformatics tools to apply Oxford Nanopore Technology sequencing to the detection, diagnostic and characterization of pathogens of public health importance. It corresponds to a collaboration […]

Join us on Google groups! KlebNET e-mail distribution list on Google groups. Please ask for registration, by explaining your interest in Klebsiella research or surveillance and providing your institution, so that the moderators can […]

Our research on Bordetella covers the population biology and epidemiology of various Bordetella species, including B. pertussis, the major agent of whooping cough; vaccine improvements; and the impact of vaccination on population evolution. Current […]

Our research on Corynebacterium diphtheriae and related bacterial pathogenic species, including Corynebacterium ulcerans,  aims at defining the diversity, evolution and epidemiology of the agents of diphtheria and related infections. We study human and animal clinical isolates […]

Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most urgent threats to public health given its increasing resistance to antimicrobial agents including carbapenems, considered as last-resort antibiotics.  In this project we aim to understand the ecological, epidemiological and […]

High-throughput sequencing has revolutionized our abilities to track and characterize novel bacterial strains as they emerge and disseminate globally. Genome-based epidemiological typing systems provide ultimate resolution for strain discrimination. Genome sequences may also be […]

The Institut Pasteur has voluminous activities of microbial strain characterisation, in the context of epidemiological surveillance, biological resource centres collections management, and research. These activities involve National Reference Centers, WHO-collaborative centers, biological resources centers […]

JolyTree implements an alignment-ƒree distance-based procedure ƒor inferring phylogenetic trees ƒrom genome contig sequences. For each pair of genomes, a dissimilarity measure is ƒirst computed and next transƒormed to obtain an estimation oƒ the […]

The genomic and nomenclature databases of strains of pathogenic bacterial species are available through the Institut Pasteur BIGSdb portal: http://bigsdb.pasteur.fr. The portal is powered by the Bacterial Isolates Genome Sequence DataBase (BIGSdb) tool developed […]
