Subject and Association Descriptionhttps://www.afm-telethon.fr/en:
The French Muscular Dystrophy Association (AFM-Telethon) is an association of activists, patients and parents of patients, affected by rare, progressive and significantly disabling genetic diseases, known as genetic neuromuscular diseases. It was created out of a conviction and a desire, to cure diseases that were long considered to be incurable. AFM-Telethon is also the Telethon, a fundraising event which brought rare diseases out of scientific and medical obscurity and triggered a three-fold revolution: genetic, social and medical.
