Supervised projects

ESR2: Comparative transcriptomics of host-pathogen interactions

This ESR's goal will be to increase the understanding of how host-pathogen interactions vary during infection and across Candida species by comparative transcriptome approaches.

ESR5: Identification of markers and transcriptional profiles common to fungal infection, and specific to C. parapsilosis infection.

This ESR's goal will be to identify markers and transcriptional profiles common to fungal infection, and specific to C. parapsilosis infection.
Filled

ESR6: Analysis of interactions of Candida tropicalis

This ESR's goal will be to identify markers and transcriptional profiles common to fungal infection, and specific to C. tropicalis infection.
Filled

ESR9: Molecular microbiology of C. albicans infections

This ESR's goal will be to identify markers and transcriptional profiles common to fungal infection, and specific to C. albicans and C. glabrata infection.
Filled

ESR12: Clinical molecular ecology and microbiology of Candida vaginitis

This ESR's goal will be to identify virulence factors up-regulated in C. albicans and the host, as compared to uninfected women with normal vaginal microflora. Candidate genes will be developed into prototype diagnostic tools.
Filled

ESR8: Candida Proteomic responses to antifungals

This ESR's goal will be to identify antifungal resistance biomarkers in main pathogenic Candida species and the isolation and assessment of llama antibodies against selected candidate biomarkers.
