Location of LIRYC in FranceThe Electrophysiology and Heart Modeling Institute (French: L'Institut de RYthmologie et Modélisation Cardiaque), is one of six French university hospital institutions created in 2011 as part of the Investments for the future program (Investissements d'avenir[1]) to boost medical research and innovation.
This institute, headed by Professor Pierre Jaïs along with Professor Michel Haissaguerre, Dr Mélèze Hocini and the cardiology teams of the University Hospital of Bordeaux, unites multiple specialties around cardiac electrophysiology from research on ionic channels (microgenerators producing electric flows in cells) to whole heart and patient care.
