A look back at the memorable Pasteurdon day on October 8

The Pasteurdon day held on October 8 for staff members and their families and friends provided visitors of all ages with a fun and engaging introduction to science. This event was also an effective showcase for the dedication of the entire campus to sharing the Institut Pasteur's values and research.

Some 650 enthusiastic visitors took part in the activities organized for this 10th Pasteurdon, which included scientific workshops, a challenge to raise awareness of the importance of recycling, fascinating "augmented reality" tours of laboratories, film screenings, fun selfies, museum tours, a variety of sports challenges – and a delicious mid-afternoon snack.

Our thanks to all those who helped prepare and organize this memorable day, and thanks to all the Institut Pasteur staff and their family and friends for getting stuck in and making the day a real success!
