Evolution et gestion de la résistance des moustiques aux insecticides – ANR-05-SEST-0035
Mosquitoes represent the major family of vector borne diseases, and their control is presently the main method of preventing diseases they transmit. However, insecticides efficiency is now decreased by the emergence of resistance mechanisms. It is crucial to develop new insecticides and control stra
Ecologie de la résistance aux anbiotiques de Escherichia coli et Staphylococcus aureus dans les flores commensales de l'homme et des animaux en milieu naturel. Transition vers la virulence et impact sur la santé humaine – ANR-05-SEST-0017
Background. Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a major public health problem worldwide. The commensal flora of humans constitutes a major reservoir of potentially pathogenic bacteria and resistance genes. The level of resistance depends on the selective antibiotic pressure in the source populati
Pathocénose et émergence des maladies transmissibles : un concept unificateur mis à l'épreuve sur des pathologies exemplaires – ANR-05-SEST-0013
The emergence of new infectious diseases is a public health problem of increasing acuity, which touches both developed and emerging countries. Several factors, which are known to support the emergence of infections, often of anthropic origin, lead to environmental modifications. However, the link be
L'émergence de la dengue dans des environnements en mutation – ANR-05-SEST-0010
Dengue fever, transmitted primarily by Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus mosquitoes, is the most widespread arbovirus in the world. Its incidence is approximately 80 million cases recorded annually, concerning more than 100 countries. It is currently expanding to different ecological settings. The Fr
Pollution atmosphérique, inégalités sociales de santé et asthme – ANR-05-SEST-0005
Socioeconomic gradients in health are well documented in developed countries, but incompletely explained. Moreover, many environmental exposures are suspected to be health risk factors, some of them being well-established. However, research in these different domains is essentially carried out indep
Projet Bioscope "l'observatoire du vivant en Méditerranée" – ANR-05-SEST-0048
The general goal of BioSCOPE, is to reinforce life observation either in human or animal aspects, stimulate research in theoretical epidemiology, focused on emerging infectious diseases, including top references in virology and microbiology. Implementation of the system will take advantage of the p
La sécurité sanitaire environnementale et ses risques – ANR-05-SEST-0047
The aim of this proposal is to identify and characterize 3 risk factors within the environmental health safety regulation regime. The first of these factors is related to the categories for decision and action used: given their heterogeneity, these categories tend to foster conflict between the diff
A citizen science project to investigate environmental yeasts in urban soils – FungiSol
The world of microscopic fungi, their biodiversity and their impact on human health remain largely unknown to the general public, despite the fact that they are responsible for nearly 1.5 million deaths worldwide each year - more than malaria or tuberculosis. In addition, superficial mycoses affect
Development and evaluation of a culturally-sensitive educational video to improve access to and utilization of antenatal care services among Afghan women migrants and refugees in France – NAFIS
Antenatal care (ANC) is crucial for promoting maternal and newborn health, particularly among migrants, asylum seekers and refugees, who often face disparities in healthcare access and outcomes compared to local populations. In France, where Afghans represent the largest community of refugees and as
Lessons to be learned from Citizens' Conventions in France – DémoCit
In the face of increasingly serious political crises, democratic innovations are developing all over the world. In particular, deliberative processes involving diverse panels of randomly selected citizens have been widely experimented with for several decades. They have been the subject of numerous
