Our female Pasteurians rise to the challenge of the La Parisienne race to uphold the values of sport and research

On Sunday September 12, 47 female Institut Pasteur staff members will take to the starting line of the "La Parisienne" race, under the Eiffel Tower, after a full year long break due to the health context which left the organizers with no other choice but to cancel the event.

For the fifth year running, the Institut Pasteur team will once again fly the flag in aid of the new Pasteurdon campaign. Our determined runners are ever ready to defend research and demonstrate the unwavering commitment of the Institut Pasteur's scientists.
This women-only 7 km race in central Paris is not just a sporting challenge – it's also a fun, sociable event to take part in with colleagues and friends.

So why not come and support your colleagues along the course? Be there from 9am onwards on Sunday to see your colleagues take to the road! Research must advance!

A second event that upholds the values of both sport and research is also coming up this fall. For the "20km de Paris" race, some Institut Pasteur staff members will set off from the foot of the Eiffel Tower in aid of Pasteurdon. You can discover the team prepared to go the distance and put individual and collective efforts to good use in an upcoming issue of the newsletter!
