El laboratorio del Dr. Dominique Ferrandon está interesado en descifrar los mecanismos moleculares que permiten que el hospedador y el patógeno se adapten entre sí, en el modelo de Drosophila:
Host-Pathogen Interactions and Resilience
We aim to decipher the molecular mechanisms allowing a host and a pathogen to adapt each other:
– the host attacking the pathogen (resistance) or defending and repairing itself (resilience)
– the pathogen hijacking the host defences or simply hiding itself, and sometimes attacking the host.
We work from both the host side (drosophila) and the pathogen side (bacteria and fungi).
