LabEx ParaFrap
ParaFrap, the French Alliance for Parasitology and Health Care, is a LabEx (Laboratory of Excellence) created by the French Ministry of Research in 2012 and regrouping currently 17 leading Parasitology groups in France
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
- herapeutic involvements (diagnostics, drugs and vaccines)
- ParaFrap will contribute to the future through a national student training
PhD program termed "ParaFrap Training"
Themes
Mechanisms of pathogenesis
Parasite molecular and cellular biology
Post genomic data exploration
International PhD Program
