Team leader : Julien Mazerie
The Myocare department at the Institute of Myology is tasked with developing and structuring several complementary areas of activity: clinical assessment, clinical research, producing recommendations, and training healthcare professionals.
Myocare brings together a multidisciplinary team comprising physiotherapists, psychologists, neuromuscular disease specialists and functional assessment experts.
Its objective is to support clinical trials conducted by the I-Motion Pediatric and I-Motion Adult platforms within a harmonised framework based on best practices.
To this end, Myocare structures and develops training programmes incorporating the latest scientific advances for healthcare professionals involved in neuromuscular assessment, rehabilitation or patient support.
The department also contributes to the development and dissemination of practical recommendations, promoting standardisation of methods and continuous improvement in the quality of assessments.
Finally, Myocare aims to explore new research topics (such as sedentary lifestyles and muscles) within the Institute by developing partnerships with institutional, academic, public and private stakeholders. This approach aims to broaden our areas of expertise, encourage innovation in our methods and strengthen the scientific and clinical impact of the projects carried out within the Institute.
