CORONAVIRUS

The Institut Pasteur mobilization : see the dedicated page on pasteur.fr

Since the begining of the pandemic, the Institut Pasteur in Paris and its International Network of 32 institutes have been extremely active worldwide in responding with science to the pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. Its response currently involves a lot of people at the Institut Pasteur in Paris and several teams in the network in other countries. A coronavirus task force was set up by the Institut Pasteur in January to coordinate COVID-19 research by its teams. Many projects are also being carried out in partnerships or with the support of other organizations.

Part of these projects is presented on the pasteur.fr website. It is currently divided into eight broad research fields:

  • Knowledge of the virus and its pathogenesis

  • Development of research tools

  • Development of diagnostic tests

  • Therapeutic research

  • Vaccine candidates

  • Epidemiological research

  • Modeling

  • Bioinformatics
