At the end of his professorial mandate at the Val de Grâce hospital, Alphonse Laveran, who was Chief Doctor, was appointed to Lille and then Nantes. These assignments however deprived him of a hospital service where he could carry on his research. In 1896, faced with the inflexibility of his military hierarchy, he applied for early retirement; he was then 50 years old. Dr Roux welcomed him to the Pasteur Institute as a honorary department head, where he started a second career as a volunteer. He would spend the following 25 years there, addressing the great protozoology issues. Together with Félix Mesnil, he undertook the study of trypanosomiasis and leishmaniases. In 1907 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in physiology and medicine to honor "his work on the role of protozoa as pandemic vectors". He allocated a large part of his prize money to set up a parasitology laboratory at the Pasteur Institute, where all the discoveries and observations carried out in the colonies would converge. In 1908, he funded the Society of Exotic Pathology. He authored no less than 600 publications where his memorable research is recorded. Despite his somewhat outwardly rigid appearance, the man proved to be of amiable approach thanks to "the simplicity of his manners, his amenity and his great heart".
在拉瓦尔·德·格拉谢医院担任教授任期结束时，时任主任医师的阿尔方斯·拉韦朗被派往里尔，随后又前往南特。然而，这些任职使他无法在医院继续开展研究工作。1896年，面对军队等级制度的僵化，他申请提前退休，当时他50岁。鲁博士欢迎他到巴斯德研究所担任名誉部门负责人，在那里他开始了作为志愿者的第二职业生涯。他在那里度过了接下来的25年，致力于解决原生动物学的重大问题。他与费利克斯·梅斯尼尔一起研究了锥虫病和利什曼病。1907年，他被授予诺贝尔生理学和医学奖，以表彰“他关于原生动物作为大流行病传播媒介作用的研究”。他将大部分奖金用于在巴斯德研究所设立一个寄生虫学实验室，来自殖民地的所有发现和观察结果都将汇聚于此。1908年，他资助了热带病理学协会。他撰写了不少于600篇出版物，记录了他令人难忘的研究成果。尽管他外表有些刻板，但由于“他举止简单、和蔼可亲且心地善良”，人们发现他是个和蔼可亲的人。
