Sanofi Pasteur

Participants : Frédéric Boyer, Alain Viari.

In September 2004, HELIX started a two-year contractual relation with the company Sanofi Pasteur located in Lyon. The collaboration concerns the in-depth (re)annotation of pathogenic bacteria of interest to Sanofi Pasteur. The (re)annotation of several strains was completed in 2006 and followed, in 2007, by their comparative analysis in order to pinpoint genomic or metabolic specificities. This work has been done by F. Boyer in the context of his post-doc between Lyon and Grenoble.
