Compensatory Evolution and Epistasis in Multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (EVODRTB)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mars 2018,

Identification and development of vaccine candidates for Buruli Ulcer Disease (BuruliVac)
Date du début: 1 mars 2010, Date de fin: 31 mai 2013,
Buruli ulcer disease (BUD), caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans, is a neglected bacterial infection of the poor in remote rural areas, mostly affecting children. BUD, the third most common mycobacterial disease in immunocompetent humans after tuberculosis and leprosy, is most endemic in West Africa, but cases have been reported from more than 30 countries. BUD is a mutilating disease leading to sever ...
