The Institut du Cerveau – ICM was selected to become one of the six Hospital-University Institutes (IHU) financed by “Investments in the Future.” This selection was made in response to a call for projects launched, in July 2010, by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research and the Ministry of Health.
Like all of the IHUs, the Institut du Cerveau – ICM is associated with a university, a hospital and research institutions:
It brings together, around a specialty (nervous system diseases), teams of French and foreign researchers and physicians, who develop a program of excellence in care, training, research and valorisation.
