Professor LE HEUZEY has a long-standing research interest in the basic mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias, coupled with clinical activity in arrhythmology. His dedicated research group addresses clinically relevant issues ranging from the cell level to patients management, with an emphasis on the mechanism of atrial arrhythmias. He is also involved in the evaluation of arrhythmias in heart failure and of ventricular arrhythmia therapy by the implantable defibrillator.
He has been chairman (2000-2001) of the Working Group on Arrhythmias of the French Society of Cardiology and treasurer of the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA, 2003-2005).
He has served on a variety of national grant review committees, on boards and committees of national and international clinical trials (CIBIS, ACTIVE, AF-CHF, RELY, SHIFT, RecordAF), and as reviewer for a number of journals including European Heart Journal, Europace, Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology (PACE) and Circulation.
Professor Le Heuzey has given over 300 lectures including 100 lectures to international audiences, written near 200 papers and appears on over 500 abstracts.
