Lemaitre Lab
Insects possess efficient mechanisms for detecting and neutralising microbial infection. The application of Drosophila genetics to deciphering these mechanisms has generated insights into insect immunity and uncovered similarities with mammalian innate immune responses.
Our research focuses on understanding mechanisms of microbial infection and corresponding host defence responses in Drosophila using genetic and genomic approaches.
Our research focuses on
The reproducibility Project
A. Layers of immunity | B. Exploring auto-immune damage and protection
