Abstract: |
The laboratory of Immunology-Vaccinology was created in 1979. The two main topics of the lab are the development of new vaccines and the study of host pathogen interactions with a special interest for immune-evasion mechanisms developed by pathogens. Various host-pathogen models are studied, focusing mainly on animal viruses but also on few parasites.
The marine component of the group relates to the study of restocked diadromous eel and the biological and genomic features of its pathogens, despite the fact that research is mainly taking place in freshwater ecosystems. This also includes the study of different pre-release quarantine conditions for eel, in the framework of restocking programs, important for mitigation of sanitary risks, including avoiding the further spread of eel pathogens. |
