When we hear the name "Pasteur," the immediate association is Louis Pasteur—the towering French chemist and microbiologist who gave us pasteurization, vaccines for rabies and anthrax, and the germ theory of disease. However, behind every great scientist, there is often a figure of silent strength, logistical genius, and unwavering support. For Louis Pasteur, that figure was Sophie Pasteur.
