On March 31, 15 PhD students from the Alliance Sorbonne Paris Cité took on the challenge of presenting their research in 3 minutes, with clarity, humor, and creativity.  

A big congratulations to Yaëlle Wormser, PhD student in the Bacterial Cell Cycle Mechanisms Unit, who represented the Institut Pasteur and is among the 5 finalists qualified for the regional final. She won the Alumni Prize for her work on Corynebacterium glutamicum as a model system to study the DNA gyrase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, under the supervision of Stéphanie Petrella.  

Thank you to all members of the Institut Pasteur who followed the final, in person or online, to support Yaëlle.
