We are surrounded by bacteria and viruses, both inside and outside our bodies. While many of these micro-organisms are beneficial, others can pose a threat to our health, as we saw during the recent pandemic. Our research aims to improve our understanding, at the molecular level, of the mechanisms that govern the survival of micro-organisms. In this way, we hope to facilitate the development of new treatments for bacterial and viral infections, and take advantage of the micro-organisms present in our microbiota to improve our general health.
Pour mener à bien leur recherche de haut niveau, nos chercheurs doivent s’appuyer sur des outils technologiques de pointe, opérationnels et parfaitement maintenus.
Le projet « les outils de l’espoir » vise à permettre une parfaite exploitation des plateformes technologiques telles que la microscopie, la génomique, la protéomique et la bio-informatique au profit de tous les chercheurs de l’Institut.
