For the second consecutive year, the event is partnering with the Paris Brain Institute, a world-renowned center for neuroscience research. Created in 2010 by Jean Todt and Prof. Gérard Saillant, the Institute is tackling one of the greatest challenges of our century: the fight against neurological and psychiatric diseases. Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, stroke, depression, multiple sclerosis, brain tumors… In Europe, 1 in 2 people will be affected by a neurological disorder during their lifetime.
Spectators can help advance brain research by adding a donation of €2, €5, or any amount of their choice when purchasing their ticket.
