Listeria virulence: the key role of gene expression
The bacterium Listeria monocytogenes can be pathogenic to humans and cause listeriosis, a potentially fatal infection. Until now, the variability in the pathogenicity of Listeria monocytogenes was not clearly understood. But a team from the Institut Pasteur has recently shed new light on a new mechanism that determines virulence by regulating gene expression.

Neuroscience
The nervous system has yet to reveal all its secrets. That is why the Institut Pasteur's Department of Neuroscience is committed to investigating the organization and functions of the central nervous system. The teams of this department conduct research to shed light on the mechanisms that are responsible for mental processes at different levels, from molecular to individual, and to explore the...

Mycology
Mycoses have been a major public health issue since the early 1980s. Each year, nearly 1.5 million people worldwide die from a severe (or "invasive") infection caused by a microscopic fungus – that's nearly as many victims as those claimed by malaria and tuberculosis. This high death rate can be attributed to often late diagnosis and the limited efficacy of current medication.

A historic fight against emerging infectious diseases
Emerging infectious diseases result from contact between microbes and animals, with humans the most parasitized animal species. From the plague in Asia in 1894 to the current COVID-19 crisis, scientists at the Institut Pasteur have long leveraged their expertise and talent to further knowledge creation and benefit humankind.
