The Institute in 2020
The Institut Pasteur du Cambodge remains a bridgehead of Pasteur-inspired research on infectious diseases in Cambodia. The Institute, a very active member of the Institut Pasteur International Network (IPIN), is a government-approved non-profit research institution. The Institute was created in 1953 and reopened in 1992 after the signature of an agreement with the Royal Government of Cambodia (RGC), which was renewed by an endorsement in 2013. The Institute is under the senior oversight of the Cambodian Ministry of Health (MoH), on behalf of which it carries out high excellence life sciences and health research, public health and health services as well as training and education activities. The Institute has reinforced this mission over the past 25 years in collaboration with national and international institutions. It contributes to the diagnosis, research, and prevention of the priority infectious diseases and emerging pathogens in Cambo dia and the Greater Mekong Sub-region. It plays a major role in microbiological monitoring and research in cooperation with national and international partners, as well as several IPIN Institutes, first and foremost the Institut Pasteur in Paris…
