Pasteurdon

As with each edition, the Pasteurdon launch event will only be a success if everyone rallies round to form a united community committed to research. The Pasteurdon patrons, ambassadors, journalists, TV and radio presenters and sponsors, and of course each and every staff member at the Institut Pasteur, all have a part to play in getting this year's appeal off to a great start, giving it momentum and boosting its visibility!

Pasteurdon

For Pasteurdon, the Institut Pasteur can count on the support of two stars from film and TV to convey the key messages of this year's campaign and offer a window onto the work of the Institut Pasteur's scientists. This year, TV presenter Julia Vignali and actor Kad Merad have agreed to be the Institut Pasteur's patrons.

Pasteurdon

Pasteurdon is unique in terms of its sheer scale and the unbridled enthusiasm of the media partners, presenters and journalists involved. Since the very first Pasteurdon, the campaign has enjoyed increasing support from its committed media partners. This year more than 50 media partners are joining forces to advance research. For this year's campaign, 38 TV channels, 19 radio stations, Le Figaro Magazine and more than 35 presenters and journalists will be involved in promoting Pasteurdon over the five days.
