The SYNAPSE association
The SYNAPSE association
SYNAPSE is a simple, responsive structure at the heart of our healthcare business, where emergencies are omnipresent.
Independent and flexible, it responds to research and training needs to maintain high standards and quality.
The association was created in 2017 to finance research projects, the purchase of innovative equipment and training courses.
Logo design
The logo is a planisphere supported by children’s hands. A network links the different points of the globe. One part represents the cosmos, with its stars, including the Orion constellation, which is highly recognizable in the sky, projecting us towards more distant and audacious projects.
The S in SYNAPSE takes a shape that resembles the APF France Handicap logo, but with the typology of the European Space Agency. What a program!
Children’s hands to carry out universal projects, this is one of SYNAPSE’s motivations, to take care of the most vulnerable in order to carry out projects for the benefit of everyone on our planet. And beyond?
Come on board with SYNAPSE!
The association’s priorities
The purpose of SYNAPSE is to carry out actions of general interest, to support innovation, training and transmission in the field of healthcare.
We have identified three priorities:
Nutrition and metabolism
These tools and areas of intervention benefit a wide range of clinical conditions, and can help with pathologies such as traumatic, oncological or neuromuscular events.
SYNAPSE aims to support patients, their families and caregivers.
