The anticipated increase in international tourist flows and the first locally acquired dengue cases in the Paris region in October 2023 have raised concerns about potential arbovirus outbreaks during the 2024 Olympics. Unlike previous mass sporting events at risk of arbovirus outbreaks, Paris is a nonendemic arbovirus area, requiring a unique inves...
Due to large outbreaks observed worldwide, Candida auris has emerged as a major threat to healthcare facilities. To prevent these phenomena, a systematic screening should be performed in patients transferred from regions where the pathogen is highly endemic. In this study, we recorded and analyzed French mycologists' current knowledge and practice ...

Global changes in climate are contributing to modified Phlebotomine sand fly presence and activity, and the distribution of the pathogens they transmit (e.g., Leishmania and Phlebovirus), and are leading to their possible extension toward northern France. To predict the evolution of these pathogens and control their spread, it is essential to ident...
As part of our ongoing antileishmanial structure–activity relationship study, a structural simplification of the 3‐nitroimidazo[1,2‐a]pyridine ring to a 5-nitroimidazole moiety was conducted. A series of novel 2,4-disubsituted 5-nitroimidazole derivatives, including the 5-nitroimidazole analog of Hit A and the 4-phenylsulfonylmethyl analog of fexin...
