"Keeping in touch" challenge: check out the Institut Pasteur's response in photos

In the April 3 edition of the newsletter, we invited you to take part in the #PasteuriansTogether challenge as a way of sharing what you are up to and showing your support.

The idea was for you to take a photo of your daily life during this unprecedented period, either on campus or at home, with the slogan #PasteuriansTogether.

We received a huge number of photos in response to the challenge. Always spontaneous and sometimes bordering on bizarre, from campus or your home office, during a video conference or a lab experiment, while enjoying lunch or a snack, with or without your pet – your photos demonstrate the sheer variety of our daily routines at the moment, but also the fact that despite the current situation we remain #PasteuriansTogether! We collected more than a hundred photos.

Thanks to all those who took part. The strength of the Institut Pasteur community depends on each and every one of us!

Get your creative juices flowing for the April 24 edition of the newsletter, when a new challenge will await you! Until then, take good care of your hands – they are vital for keeping in touch!

The Institut Pasteur is also benefiting from a great boost of external support, as shown by these drawings of encouragement found outside the door of the medical center at 211 rue de Vaugirard this week.
