It aims to understanding the mechanisms of diseasesto anticipate risks and transform scientific discoveries into concrete solutions for public health.

Our uniqueness lies in an approach integrated and cross-cutting, at the crossroads of the fondamental research, Applied research and action research, in close connection with prevention and field issues.

Research teams at the Pasteur Institute of Lille are exploring the major contemporary health challenges, in France and internationally:

  • infectious diseases,
  • chronic diseases,
  • cancers and inflammatory diseases,
  • neurodegenerative diseases,
