About AMF Telethon
Contrary to what may be believed, rare and genetic diseases concern all of us. They affect 4% to 6% of the population, i.e. 3 million French people and 25 to 30 million Europeans whilst 80% of these diseases are of genetic origin. For many years, the French Muscular Dystrophy Association (AFM-Téléthon) has been involved in research into rare diseases, and particularly in the development of innovative drugs. The Association also fights to ensure that rare diseases remain a public health priority.
HI-COM is honoured to support such an amazing cause.
