معرفی
Sarah Temmam is a Researcher and Principal Investigator at Pasteur Institute in Paris, France, specializing in viral emergence at the animal-human interface. She serves as Project Manager for European Commission-funded research programs and leads the CREID Pilot Program 'Danube Ticks' focused on tick-borne diseases in Eastern Europe.
Her research employs metagenomic approaches to identify and characterize viral diversity in reservoirs and vectors, with particular expertise in studying viruses in ticks and mosquitoes across diverse geographic regions including Southeast Asia, Madagascar, and Cambodia. Dr. Temmam's work contributes to understanding the mechanisms of viral emergence and transmission across species barriers, with implications for pandemic preparedness and response.
She is actively involved in the Pathogen Discovery team led by Marc Eloit, developing innovative approaches like Microseek, a metagenomic pipeline for virus diagnostic and discovery. Her research portfolio spans bat coronaviruses related to SARS-CoV-2, tick viromes, and mosquito viral diversity studies, demonstrating her expertise across multiple dimensions of emerging viral threats.
Dr. Temmam's recent publications in high-impact journals including PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, Parasites & Vectors, Science Translational Medicine, and Viruses reflect her significant contributions to understanding viral ecology and emergence mechanisms, with ongoing research that has important implications for global health security and pandemic prevention.
