In Paris, the Curie Institute will participate in the 2026 Science Festival from October 2 to 12, offering activities, discussions, and opportunities to exchange ideas about cancer research. The public will gain a clearer understanding of scientific careers, the work conducted in laboratories, and Marie Curie’s legacy.
Once again this year, the Institut Curie is calling on our solidarity and creativity. For this new edition of Pink October 2025, the month of breast cancer awareness and screening, the Institut Curie is issuing us with a solidarity challenge: together, let's create 20,000 pink pouches for Curie!
In order to expand the Institut Curie cancer center, a number of historic buildings are to be demolished where Marie Curie herself once worked. A decision that has raised concerns among heritage conservationists, notably the Commission du Vieux Paris.
