Project context and summary :

The recent propagation of resistance mechanisms to insecticides constitutes a major challenge in the fight against the transmission of vector-borne diseases. Even though alternatives are being explored in mosquitoes, there are few studies focusing on the role that these molecules could have or play in the transmission of arboviruses. Using an in cellulo model, this project aims to determine the impact that an insecticide selection can have on an infection caused by the chikungunya virus.
