Labex ParaFrap
As part of the LabEx ParaFrap, the main French teams in parasitology have formed the “Alliance Française contre les Maladies Parasitaires”, the first consortium to combat the most common protozoan parasites.
Objectives
Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, Trypanosoma, Leishmania, Entamoeba, Theileria
- New scientific opportunities are provided by the recently available genome information for most major parasites and their hosts
- Combining the state-of-the-art of fundamental research and translational applications we expect to defeat major parasitic diseases such as malaria, toxoplasmosis, leishmaniasis, African trypanosomiasis, amoebiasis and theileriosis
- Therapeutic involvements (diagnostics, drugs and vaccines)
- ParaFrap will contribute to the future through a national student training PhD program termed ParaFrap Training
Themes
Our joint research programs with 4 complementary themes
Mechanisms of pathogenesis
Cellular and Molecular Biology
