This year, the Fête de la Science was held nationwide from 4 to 12 October 2024.
The Institute of Myology opened its doors to the general public on this occasion, with a tour of our laboratories on the afternoons of 8 and 10 October, bringing together AFM donors, partners and the general public, with around forty visitors coming to find out about our activities and meet our researchers, physiotherapists and radiologists.
The programme included an immersion into the heart of muscle and myology, with a visit to our physiology and neuromuscular evaluation laboratory to discover our MyoTools and test strength and motor skills, and a pictorial tour of our NMR imaging and spectroscopy laboratory to understand the specific imaging research programmes for neuromuscular diseases developed by our experts in the NMR lab.
Thanks to the teams at the Institute of Myology for the warm welcome, the presentations and the highly educational demos given to our very curious and interested visitors!
