The charity gala for the ICM, Brain and Spinal Cord Institute, took place at the Conciergerie in Paris in the presence of many prestigious guests.

It sold for 120’000.- euros and the entire amount has been given to ICM.
François-Paul Journe is saying: “I am proud to support the ICM and its scientific research since 2004 to discover new treatments for nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer, Parkinson or multiple sclerosis. We all have someone in our family suffering from one of these diseases and our only hope is to contribute in finding a treatment.”
The ICM institute is the world largest research laboratory that gathers in the heart of the Hospital Pitié- Salpêtrière in Paris, over 700 researchers, doctors and patients, playing an essential role in the process of discovery and treatment for nervous system disorders.
