Axis 1 : Respiratory fungal infections in transplant patients

The main challenge in this area is to improve our knowledge of the epidemiology and pathophysiology of fungal infections in transplant patients.

Below are a few examples of achievements or projects in this area:

Selection of Pneumocystis jirovecii inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase mutants in solid organ transplant recipients: implications of mycophenolic acid.

Fungal infections in transplant recipients: advantages and disadvantages of immunosuppressive and antimicrobial treatments.

The COST ‘Delve-into-Pneumocystis’ (Partner, Gilles Nevez)

The ANR AspergIS project (Coordinator, Nicolas Papon)

The European JPIAMR DDBIoS project (Partner, Solène Le Gal)
