After four days of concerted efforts by Institut Pasteur staff and the 36 Pasteurdon media partners, this year's campaign raised close to €1.3 million in pledges between October 6 and 9.

► Focus on: Launch of the European Commission's Marie Sklodowska-Curie call
The European Commission has launched its Marie Sklodowska-Curie call for proposals for the creation of European networks to foster doctoral mobility. The program provides training for researchers in Europe at all stages of their careers with the aim of training up a new generation of researchers by developing their potential for creativity, entrepreneurship and innovation. There are three types of grant:
• European Training Networks (ETNs)
European Training Networks should be composed of at least three beneficiaries based in different EU or associated countries. Participation of partners from outside academia is essential, and the joint supervision of young researchers is encouraged.
• European Industrial Doctorates (EIDs)
European Industrial Doctorates should have at least two beneficiaries - one academic partner and one partner from outside academia - based in two different EU or associated countries. The young researchers must be enrolled in a doctoral program.
• European Joint Doctorates (EJDs)
European Joint Doctorates should be composed of at least three beneficiary organizations based in different EU or associated countries and awarding PhDs. The aim of these networks is to create joint PhD programs awarding joint, double or multiple degrees.
The submission deadline is January 17, 2017.
