Abstract:
The cardiovascular research and reflection group aims to hold round tables between the annual congresses on themes allowing clinicians, fundamental research workers, especially the younger generation, to present their work. For example, a number of subjects of these round tables, "Genomic Modification and Integrated Physiology", "Adhesion and Extracellular Matrix", or "Electrophysiological Features of Ventricular Arrhythmias" of the 2005 Congress led to many laboratories publishing their results in the most reputable journals, such as Nature Medicine, Circulation. During the Strasbourg Congress, six poster prizes were attributed to young, nonstatutory research workers, under 32 years of age. Six voyage grants for the American Heart Association Meeting were given to students who had their summaries accepted, in the expectation of upcoming publications by young French workers in the best journals.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.
