The Pharmacoepidemiology and Infectious Diseases (Pharmacoépidémiologie et Maladies Infectieuses–PhEMI) research group was launched at the Institut Pasteur in 2007 as one of the teams of INSERM U657, subsequently becoming a separate Institut Pasteur unit in January 2008. Following an AERES evaluation (February 2009), a research team was also established at the University of Versailles Saint Quentin (UVSQ) in January 2010. The group became affiliated to INSERM again in January 2011. It is located on two different sites: the Institut Pasteur campus in Paris, and the UVSQ Medical School, Raymond Poincare University Hospital, Garches.
