Become a Benefactor
As a grant making foundation, we are entirely science and project led and want our donors to feel a part of the exciting discoveries we are making together.
Pasteur Foundation -UK was born from the many existing scientific collaborations between the Institut Pasteur and leading UK research institutions and our grant giving is driven by cross- boarder collaborations that come to us.
