Every year during summer, the Institute of Myology of Paris organizes a comprehensive training course in Myology in the form a condensed course. The course is open to foreign healthcare professionals with special facilitating conditions for applicants posted in the French Overseas Territories (DROM-COM -Overseas Departments and Regions and Overseas Communities, formerly DOM-TOM) and in low-income countries.
The content of the Summer School is similar to that of the University Diploma delivered jointly by Sorbonne University and Aix-Marseille University all year long.
Most aspects of Myology are addressed during the course : from basic science to cutting-edge therapies, clinical and genetic approaches of muscle diseases are taught. This is achieved by a series of lectures and interactive workshops, all conducted in English.

Since 1998, more than 800 students have attended the course and been taught by internationally recognized faculties.
