About Genopole®

GIP Genopole®

After being founded as a not-for-profit association in 1998 under the impetus of the French government, a number of local authorities and the French Muscular Dystrophy Association (Association Française contre les Myopathies, AFM-Telethon), Genopole® became a Groupement d’Intérêt Public (GIP, a form of public-private joint venture) on March 1, 2002, for a 12-year period.
