Institut Pasteur Saint Petersburg - 1923
In April 1886, 16 Russian patients were treated for rabies by Louis Pasteur and returned to Russia cured. Adrien Loir, Pasteur's nephew, left for Saint Petersburg to set up the first rabies centre abroad. In 1923, this centre joined forces with the Imperial Institute of Experimental Medicine and became the Institut Pasteur in Saint Petersburg, marking the 100th anniversary of Louis Pasteur's birth. This institute became part of the Institut Pasteur International Network in 1993.https://phototheque.pasteur.fr/vignette/00000000000/d3312.thu https://phototheque.pasteur.fr/vignette/00000000000/d3312.thw
