Google Arts & Culture: the Institut Pasteur and its museum in the virtual age
As a project partner, the Institut Pasteur was involved in the international launch of "Once Upon a Try" on the Google Arts & Culture platform. More than 110 institutions from 23 countries have contributed to the online exhibition, telling the stories of thousands of inventions and discoveries that changed the world and introducing users to the men and women behind these amazing breakthroughs.
The Institut Pasteur is offering all visitors to the platform the opportunity to find out more about the day-to-day life of its founder, Louis Pasteur, by going on a virtual tour of the Pasteur Museum, housed in the former apartment at the Institut Pasteur where the illustrious scientist spent the last seven years of his life. This is a great chance to find out more about the life of Louis Pasteur, who showed a keen interest in painting in his youth before going on to make some of the 19th century's most revolutionary discoveries, which today still serve as founding principles for modern science.
