2020 scientific conferences with the Institut Pasteur Conference Center
This year again, several scientific conferences are held at the Institut Pasteur conference center.
- Centenary of Jules Bordet's Nobel Prize, March 13, 2020
Jules Bordet, born in Belgium, shared his outstanding scientific career between Paris and Brussels. A symposium celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Nobel Prize of Physiology or Medicine awarded to Jules Bordet has been co-organized with our Belgian colleagues, Friday March 13, 2020, in the Émile Duclaux lecture hall.
In addition to Nathalie Devroey and Jean-Marc Cavaillon who will respectively highlight the familial and historical context of Jules Bordet’s outstanding achievements, Nicole Guiso, Hamida Hammad, Antonio Lanzavecchia, Christophe Legendre, Camille Locht, Sophie Lucas, Alberto Mantovani, Arnaud Marchant, Lubka Roumanina, Christos Sotiriou, Beth Stevens and Alain Vanderplasschen are delighted to revisit Bordet’s forward looking contributions in immunology and microbiology in the light of these disciplines today.
- ICAReB, May 14, 2020
The ICAReB platform, a member of the Translational Research Center, organizes a dialogue meeting between researchers, physicians and volunteers, being healthy volunteers or patients. Enrolled within a 'Science & Society' approach, this event is organized as a one-day colloquium within the Emile Duclaux amphitheater, on 2020 May 14.
Organizer: Marie-Noëlle Ungeheuer
- AMP, June 3-5, 2020
The 7th International Symposium on Antimicrobial Peptides (AMP2020) intends to gather for the first time at Institut Pasteur a dynamic community investigating the chemistry, biology (structures and function), ecology and evolution of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) a class of molecules produced living organisms as diverse as baceria, fungi, plants, insects and vertebrates, and which represent promissing alternatives to classical antibiotics.
The major themes of AMP2020 are: a) biosynthesis/bioengineering of novel AMPs,
b) mechanisms of AMPs activities, c) immune modulation by AMPs, d) interplay between AMPs and microbiota, and e) AMPs in the One Health context.
Organizer: Javier Pizarro-Cerda
- CRISPR, June 2-5, 2020
The Institut Pasteur is proud to host the 2020 edition of the CRISPR meeting. This is the historical meeting of the CRISPR community which has been held on yearly basis since 2008. The meeting provides an international forum for scientists interested in all aspects of CRISPR-Cas systems, ranging from microbiology and molecular biology to biotechnological developments.
Organizer: David Bikard
- Tuberculosis, September 14-18, 2020
The EMBO-sponsored Tuberculosis 2020 congress, to be held at the Institut Pasteur in Paris from September 14-18, 2020, will be dedicated primarily to the exchange and discussion on the latest scientific insights and research advances to fight Tuberculosis and its causative agent Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which continue to remain major threats for the lives of millions of people.
Organizer: Roland Brosch
- BioImage Informatics 2020, from September 30 to October 2, 2020
BioImage Informatics 2020 is an annual meeting in the processing, analysis, and extraction of information and knowledge from biological images. It will take place at the Institut Pasteur, Paris from September 30 to October 2, 2020, and be organized by Jean-Christophe Olivo-Marin (IP, General Chair), Charles Kervrann (INRIA), Jean Salamero (Institut Curie) and Jean-Yves Tinevez (IP) (Program Chairs).
