For the fifth consecutive year, the Summer School of Paris was held in partnership with La Charité University, the German session having taken place the previous week in Berlin. One student attended both schools and as part of the MyoGRAD initiative, two students attended our courses.
The format of the course has not changed compared to previous sessions, but two new professors have joined the team this year: Woodring Wright (an American who specializes in muscle senescence and teaches in Dallas, USA) and Johann Boehm (a German researcher working on tubular aggregate myopathies at the IGBMC in Strasbourg).
