Scientific Initiatives Committee

The Scientific Initiatives Committee, launched the first “Network of Centres” to coordinate research studies in Europe. These centres are also involved in the “EP Wire” initiative and are invited to respond to short surveys about the practices of specific EP topics. The results of each survey are published in the EP Europace Journal in a section called “EP Wire”. Fill in the survey onsite.

National Societies

The National Societies Committee facilitates the collaboration between National Societies and Working Groups in Electrophysiology, Cardiac Pacing and Arrhythmias of the ESC member countries. The yearly EHRA Summit meeting and the White Book are good examples of the results of this fruitful collaboration. Get your copy of the White Book 2011 on the stand.
