Safra's ambition, today the Foundation is carrying out activities throughout the world. The reasons that led the Edmond J.

First of all, the Foundation has long been interested in the various studies on neurodegenerative diseases, from fundamental research to care provided to patients, and the ICM will work hard in this spirit.<br>Next, it appears essential that a single place could help bring together knowledge, a guarantee of creations and progress. The human resources and reputation of the Pitié-Salpêtrière university medical center will emerge as the fertile environment for this ideal place, an indispensable crossroad of knowledge. Lastly, while the Edmond J.

The Edmond J. Safra Foundation cannot help be happy about it. </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" style="height:50px; background-image: url(/images/common/divider2.jpg); background-position:center; background-repeat:repeat-x; "></td> </tr> <tr> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" class="content"> <tr> <td style="height:10px;"></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:justify; line-height: 14px;"> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Accor </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Air France </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Altria </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Banque Jean-Philippe Hottinguer & Cie </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Banque Pictet </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Bouygues </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Chromatiques </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Compagnie financière Edmond de Rothschild </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Fédération Française de Tennis </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> Fondation Bettencourt-Schueller </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> groupe Lucien Barrière </span> <!--</a>--><br> <!--<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="" target="_blank">--> <span class="colorText3 bold uppercase"> J-P.

The goal of the ICM, a research foundation recognized of public utility, is to support the development of research on the brain and spinal cord, in any way possible.
