It is a research network of excellence, made up of men and women who have decided to work together to improve the cardiovascular prognosis of kidney failure patients.
For the first time, it brings together French leaders with expertise in the cardiovascular field (cardiologists, nephrologists, intensive care anaesthetists, internists, epidemiologists, methodologists, basic researchers, as well as an ARO (Academic Research Organisation), haemodialysis centres, heart failure networks, the Biomedicine Agency, the University of Lorraine and the NIT Foundation.
Coordinated by Pr Patrick Rossignol (Nephrologist, specialist in arterial hypertension, Professor of Therapeutics and Delegate Physician of the Centre for Clinical Investigation in Nancy), the network is labelled and financed for five years by "F-CRIN" (French Clinical Research Infrastructure Network).
