Institut Pasteur women's team already gearing up to run the 2023 "La Parisienne" race in aid of Pasteurdon

A new edition of Pasteurdon means new sporting challenges! And to get the ball rolling, an Institut Pasteur women's team has been set up once again and will hit the ground running at the start of the academic year as they take part in the 2023 edition of the prestigious "La Parisienne" race. On Sunday September 10, 50 female Institut Pasteur staff will take to the starting line beneath the Eiffel Tower in support of research.

For the seventh time, the Institut Pasteur team will proudly represent the values of Pasteurdon. Our determined runners are ever ready to defend research and demonstrate the unwavering commitment of the entire Institut Pasteur community.

This women-only 7 or 10km 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. To add to the enjoyment, this year the theme will be the 1980s!

So why not come and support your colleagues along the course? Be there from 9am onwards on Sunday September 10 to cheer the team on! Research must advance!
