It operates research laboratories across the country, organised into 12 Regional Delegations. Our institute brings together 15,000 researchers, engineers, technicians, and administrative staff with a shared goal: to improve health for all through advancing knowledge of living organisms and diseases, innovating treatments, and conducting public health research.Joining Inserm means becoming part of an institute committed to gender parity, professional equality, diversity, and supporting employees with disabilities, from recruitment throughout their careers. To ensure well-being in the workplace, Inserm actively promotes working conditions that focus on maintaining a proper balance between personal and professional life.Inserm received the European HRS4R label in 2016, renewed in September 2023, underscoring its ongoing commitment to fostering a high-quality research environment aligned with the principles of the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment and Evaluation of Researchers.Founded on 1st January 2014, the Centre de Recherche en Myologie (CRM) is a multidisciplinary research hub focused on muscle and its associated pathologies. The CRM is a Joint Research Unit in Health (UMR-S 974) with two supervisory bodies: INSERM and Sorbonne University (SU). It also benefits from a close partnership with the Association Institute of Myology (AIM). Located at the heart of the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital Group and Sorbonne University's Faculty of Health, the CRM enjoys a privileged scientific and medical environment. The activities of the CRM are dedicated to understanding muscle within its environment and translating these discoveries into new concepts to improve the care of patients with neuromuscular diseases. The CRM's research focuses on developing innovative approaches to cell, gene, or pharmacogenetic therapies, based on the understanding of the molecular pathophysiology of specific diseases, and thus tailored to them. It brings together around 150 researchers, clinicians, students, engineers, and technicians from INSERM, Sorbonne University, CNRS, AP-HP, and AIM, representing various nationalities, in a truly international, multicultural, and inclusive environment.The Centre of Researcher in Myology is the coordinator of a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Doctoral Network (MSCA-DN) project, funded by the European Commission.
