— Eurexpo LyonDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, multisystemic inflammatory syndrome affected 1,100 children. Since this first description in 2020, CIRI researchers, HCL clinicians and other international collaborators have discovered that this syndrome existed before COVID-19, and that other infectious agents could lead to this severe inflammatory syndrome in children. These findings are published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Among the 11 laureates of the PEPR MIE 2023 call for projects (ANRS|Emerging Infectious Diseases), 6 projects involve CIRI teams. Their common aim is to better understand, prevent and control the emergence or re-emergence of infectious diseases.

On october 11, the Chaire industrielle REVIDA about respiratory infectious diseases, led by the researcher Sophie Trouillet-Assant (UCBL/HCL), was officially launched by the Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1, the Hospices Civils de Lyon, and bioMérieux, with the support of the Agence nationale de la recherche. It should enable the improvement of the capacity of health systems to face the emerging of new respiratory diseases.

Antibiotic resistance has made certain infections, sometimes common, such as urinary and respiratory infections, impossible to treat, representing a major setback in the medical care of human and animal patients. This resistance has thus become a major health issue, which has led the WHO (World Health Organization) to establish a list of bacteria in which antibiotic resistance is particularly worrying.In a new study published in the journal mBio, we focused on one of these bacteria that are particularly resistant to antibiotics, Acinetobacter baumannii. The latter is responsible for many opportunistic and nosocomial infections. We have determined the mechanisms that allow this bacterium to rapidly acquire resistance genes from neighboring bacteria.
