The scientific department PEV, animated by S Hurtrez-Boussès (PR2, UM) and IG Bravo (DR2, CNRS), structured into three research teams applies a multi-scale strategy to understand host-parasite-environment interactions, through space and time. The research of the three teams spans the impact of anthropogenic, pathogen-driven and environmental perturbations on the ecology and evolution of host-parasite dynamics: applying omics approaches to explore the fundamental biochemical, cellular and genetic mechanisms that underlie the evolution and diversity of pathogen lifestyles (team 1); applying field work and statistical approaches to understand the high-level integration of population ecology of infectious diseases (team 2); and applying wet lab, mathematical modelling and computational analyses to study integration level interactions coupling and the mutual influence of heterogeneity patterns and infection dynamics (team 3).
