HealthSensibilization

The Institut Curie, France's leading cancer center, is home to a world-renowned research center and treats all cancers, including the rarest. Among patients diagnosed with breast cancer each year in France, 15% have triple-negative breast cancer. This is one of the most aggressive forms, with a higher risk of recurrence and shorter overall survival than other types of breast cancer.

Solution

Founded in 1909 by Marie Curie, the Institut Curie brings together on 3 sites (Paris, Saint-Cloud and Orsay) nearly 4,000 researchers, doctors and caregivers around its 3 missions: care, research and teaching.

As a public benefit foundation authorized to receive donations and legacies, the Institut Curie can, thanks to the support of its donors, accelerate discoveries and thus improve treatments and the quality of life of patients.
