These comprehensive INSTITUT PASTEUR EUROCONFERENCES are delivered by recognised scientists in the selected areas. They will allow a true exchange of ideas between basic and applied scientists from the Institut Pasteur and from other academic institutions and those from pharmaceutical companies.

Our main purpose is to strenghthen our industrial connections and provide a first quality service to the community. With our INSTITUT PASTEUR EUROCONFERENCES we wish to establish a new and prestigious forum for discussions and interactions between scientists. Four-five conferences will be held each year in the "Centre d'Information Scientifique" of the Institut Pasteur.

INSTITUT PASTEUR EUROCONFERENCES are primarily addressed to scientists, physicians and R&D managers from the pharmaceutical companies who require updated, high quality information. They are also addressed to scientists, physicians and authorities at public research institutions and Universities, as well as to younger investigators, who may benefit from a discount in the registration fee.

INSTITUT PASTEUR EUROCONFERENCES are "Conférences de Formation". Accordingly, they are essentially expected to provide state-of-the-art lecture, and not to concentrate on personal results (which of course be incorporated into the state-of-the-art review, if pertinent).
