Bioprojet x INSV — A partnership to raise awareness of childhood narcolepsy

We are proud to collaborate with the National Institute for Sleep and Vigilance (INSV) to promote our awareness campaign on childhood narcolepsy.

Bioprojet has partnered with Professor Yves Dauvilliers, the Narcolepsy Cataplexy Association (ANC), and the Reference Center for Narcolepsy and Rare Hypersomnias at Montpellier University Hospital to produce a video featuring a teenage girl with narcolepsy facing the misunderstanding of her math teacher regarding the symptoms of her condition.

This rare sleep disorder remains little-known, even though early diagnosis can change the lives of young patients and their families.

Through an educational video titled “Sleeping in class can be a disease” and an informative flyer, this campaign aims to raise awareness of the symptoms, encourage appropriate medical referral, and improve the daily lives of affected children.

These materials are available on the INSV website.

At Bioprojet, we remain committed to advancing the recognition of sleep disorders and improving patients’ quality of life—starting in childhood.
