General objective: To define virus and host parameters associated with asymptomatic clinical status for 8 years or more following HIV infection. Secondary objective: HIV molecular characterisation, viral co-infections (HCV, CMV, HHV-8 ...); genetics and host immune response: CD4 T and anti-HIV CD8; anti-HIV antibodies and neutralising Ac; innate immunity, immune response to co-infections.

General objective: To study cancer risk associated with agricultural occupational exposure according to cancer type Secondary objective: to determine the risk of cancer in the rural population

General objective: The objective of this multi-disciplinary project (neurology, pharmacology, epidemiology etc.) is to prospectively gather data in a population of outpatients with Parkinson's disease identified through a regional network of hospital neurologists and independent physicians, concerning the onset and progression of motor signs (tremor, akinesia, rigidity, motor complications, freezing, falls, dysarthria ...) and non-motor signs (pain, anxiety and depressive symptoms, autonomic dysfunction, sleep disorders, dementia, apathy, fatigue ...) of PD using validated scales. We will also gather data on quality of life, treatment (care sought and consumption of medication), morbidity and mortality within the same population. Secondary objective: To develop a biobank in the second phase based on phenotypic and pharmacological characterisations outlined in the COPARK population

General objective: to form the largest prospective cohort of melanoma patients in Europe with a blood and tissue biobank Secondary objective: to form a research team made up of clinicians, pathologists, geneticists and basic science researchers, in order to obtain high quality research responsiveness
