Tackling antibacterial and antifungal resistant infections from disease to innovative therapies

As final event of the AMR research priority of the Institut Pasteur, an international symposium “Tackling antibacterial and antifungal resistant infections from disease to innovative therapies” will be held on 9-10 December 2024 at the Pasteur Campus (Duclaux Amphitheater).

During this meeting, the disease will be repositioned as the focal point to improve treatments of bacterial and fungal infections in a context of high antimicrobial resistance.
