Upcoming "Pasteur Medicine Quarter-Hour" COVID-19 special on October 15

Every month, the Center for Translational Science runs a "Pasteur Medicine Quarter-Hour" session, where two doctors are invited to give a brief presentation to Institut Pasteur scientists on the diseases they are involved in treating. The doctors start by outlining one or more clinical cases, then provide a short description of the disease and conclude by looking at a series of unanswered questions that need to be addressed.

The next session will take place on Thursday October 15 at 5.45pm, online only on Teams via this link.

Program:

• Management of COVID patients in intensive care units - Jean-François Timsit (Bichat Hospital)

• Chronic forms of COVID-19 - Dominique Salmon (Hôtel Dieu)

More than 6 months after the beginning of the first wave of COVID-19, come and hear two clinicians talk about the disease from two different perspectives: severe forms and chronic forms.

Jean-François Timsit is head of the Medical and Infectious Diseases Intensive Care Unit at Bichat Hospital, one of the Parisian hospitals to receive the first COVID-19 patients.

 

 

Dominique Salmon works in the Infectious Diseases Ambulatory Care (Outpatients) Department. Together with other clinicians, she constituted a cohort for monitoring patients with chronic forms (Cocolate cohort) which includes some Institut Pasteur staff.
