Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Multiple issues Шаблон:Infobox scientist Eric Vivier is a French professor of immunology at Aix-Marseille and hospital practitioner[1] at Marseille Public University Hospital. He is also Chief Scientific Officer at Innate Pharma,[2] coordinator of the Marseille Immunopôle immunology cluster,[3]  and president of the Paris-Saclay Cancer Cluster, the first biocluster selected by the French government as part of the France 2030 program.[4][5]

Biography

Vivier was born in Clamart, France.[6] He graduated from the Ecole Nationale Vétérinaire de Maisons-Alfort and received his doctoral degree in immunology from Paris XI University.Шаблон:Citation needed He began his postdoctoral training as a Fogarty International Center Research Fellow at Harvard Medical School with Paul J. Anderson and Stuart F. Schlossman (the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute).[7][8]

He joined Aix-Marseille University as a professor at the Centre d'Immunologie de Marseille-Luminy (CIML) in 1993, becoming its director in 2008[9] until 2017.[2] Vivier is one of four immunologists whose research led to the creation of the biotech company Innate-Pharma in 1999.[10] In 2014, he was also one of the founders of the Marseille-Immunopole,[11][12][13] an immunology cluster linking fundamental research, therapeutic innovation, and industrial development in the Aix-Marseille region.

In addition to his academic activities, he became the chief scientific officer of Innate Pharma in January 2018. In 2022, he took over the presidency of the PSCC (Paris Saclay Cancer Cluster[5][4]), designated in December 2022 as the first winner of the "Biocluster" call for expressions of interest under the France 2030 program launched by the French government to promote investment, innovation and re-industrialization.[14]

Scientific insights

Vivier has made contributions to the understanding of the molecular basis of the ontogeny, function, and therapeutic manipulation of natural killer (NK) cells,[15][16] and the identification of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) in mice and humans.[17] His research has had a profound influence on the field of innate immunology.[18][19][20][21]

His early work had determined the mode of action of the inhibitory MHC class I receptors expressed on NK cells and extended the concept of ITIM-bearing molecules to multiple cell types and multiple biologic functions. In parallel, his group identified the ITAM-bearing polypeptide, KARAP/DAP12/Tyrobp.[22]

These studies on NK cells led to the involvement of the Vivier laboratory in the discovery of ILCs through the detection and characterization of the ILC3 cell subset in human and mouse intestines.

Vivier has published more than 300 scientific articles[23] and is on the editorial boards of leading peer-reviewed journals. He serves on the expert panel of the European Research Council and the committees of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.[24][25][26][27]
