It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Martin on 31 January, aged 41, after an eleven-year battle with a brain tumour. Martin was diagnosed with a glioma in 2014 and faced years of treatment with great courage and resilience
When the tumour returned in 2024, he met it with the same strength and dignity. He passed away surrounded by love.
In keeping with his generous spirit, he chose to donate his brain to science to support research into neurological diseases. There is a fund raiser to support research at La Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital and the Institut du Cerveau, in Martin’s memory. https://don.institutducerveau.org/enmemoiredeMartinSA/~mon-don?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio
Our thoughts and deepest sympathies are with his wife Christelle, children (Jeanne, Côme and Arthur) and loved ones at this incredibly difficult time.
