“BIOTRONIK, a family and European company, was born from the work of two students from the University of Berlin. More than 50 years later, BIOTRONIK is one of the world’s leading medical device companies. With the aim of perfectly uniting technology with the human body, BIOTRONIK innovations provide care that saves and improves the lives of millions of people with heart and blood vessel diseases every year.
Passionate about education, BIOTRONIK is aware of the importance of supporting university medical projects. That’s why it has been supporting the ICAN foundation for several years now.”
MICROPORT
Dr. Serge Cazeau
Chief Medical Officer – MicroPort CRM
MicroPort CRM is an industrial company involved in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias and the fight against sudden death. The company, based in France, has a long history of supporting research in this field. The ICAN project consists of developing a cellular model from multipotent stem cells to study arrhythmogenic dysplasia of the right ventricle, a pathology for which the Pitié-Salpêtrière team is a world reference. It is therefore quite natural that we bring our support to this program.
Fondation Carrefour
Marie-Astrid Raoult
Director of the Carrefour Foundation and the Group & France Solidarity Division
“As Director of the Carrefour Foundation, I am proud to support the research project of Doctor Wilfried Le Goff of the IHU ICAN, which explores the link between obesity and diabetes. This study is perfectly aligned with the mission of the Carrefour Foundation, which is committed to supporting not only the treatment but also the prevention of obesity. By understanding the origins and causal mechanisms between obesity and diabetes, the IHU ICAN responds to this challenge.
Between 2018 and 2022, 650,000 people were able to improve their eating habits by promoting healthier consumption thanks to the support provided by the Carrefour Foundation to all its projects and in particular that of the IHU ICAN.”
MSDAVENIR
Dr Golriz Pahlavan
Chairwoman of the MSDAVENIR Scientific Advisory Board
“With a budget of 1.2 million euros, MSDAVENIR – France’s leading fund for research in the life sciences – has decided to provide major support for the ICONIC project led by IHU ICAN, in association with Inserm. This encounter between cardiac and liver imaging and epidemiology will produce unique population data including young adults: a world first! Since 2015, MSD’s ambition has been to create synergies between the public and private sectors, and to support researchers in their efforts to foster the emergence of innovations in the service of patients.
ICONIC is a perfect illustration of MSD’s desire to support the most innovative research projects, to build the medicine of tomorrow and showcase the excellence of French research.”
Groupe Bouygues
Pierre AUBERGER
Group Communications Director
“As a patron of the arts, Bouygues is delighted to support the PEGASE project, launched by the ICAN IHU and led by cardiac surgeon Guillaume Lebreton, whose aim is to increase the number of heart transplants thanks to an ex-vivo perfusion device that preserves the heart until transplantation. Bouygues’ donation in 2023 made it possible to launch this project with a first heart transplant last January at the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, which went well, opening up other prospects linked to the prolonged preservation of vital organs.”
