On Wednesday 23 April 2025, the Institute of Myology was pleased to welcome the Chairman and Chief Executive of CARAC and around ten members of their Board of Directors and management.
CARAC, a mutual savings, pension and provident institution, has signed a letter of commitment with AFM-Téléthon and the Institut de Myologie Association to support the creation of the Foundation of Myology, the world’s leading muscle research centre, for a period of 10 years.
The signing of this letter of commitment was preceded by a visit to the NIC laboratories, which included a tour of the Myotools, tools invented by the Institute of Myology to measure patients’ strength, as well as other cutting-edge imaging technologies developed by researchers in the NMR imaging laboratory. Our visitors also met the researchers from the Institute’s Center fore Research in Myology team dedicated to myasthenia, Rozen le Panse and Nadine Dragin.
Carac’s commitment to our cause marks a major step forward for our Foundation project.
