Thanks to the integration of the electrophysiology and cardiac stimulation department of the Bordeaux University Hospital into the institute, the Liryc teams are conducting one of the most ambitious programmes in the world in cardiac rhythmology.
Liryc has designed unique technological platforms that enable the rapid transfer of research results to care centres to benefit the greatest number of patients.
Chair in Atrial Fibrillation
Over the last two decades, atrial fibrillation (AF) has emerged as a significant public health concern, posing a growing challenge. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the prevalence of AF rises considerably with advancing age. Thus, it is imperative to devise strategies aimed at preventing the onset, recurrence, or progression of AF in high-risk individuals.
To address this issue, a crucial objective is to validate novel biomarkers that can identify resistance or vulnerability to AF. These biomarkers would play a pivotal role in risk stratification for individual patients, enabling personalized care based on the likelihood of AF recurrence.
By establishing and implementing these new biomarkers, we can enhance our ability to identify at-risk patients, facilitate early intervention, and tailor treatment plans accordingly. This approach holds great promise for optimizing patient outcomes and improving overall management of AF.
15% of people over the age of 80 suffer from atrial fibrillation.

Cardiac imaging platform
Liryc boasts an exceptional array of cutting-edge imaging equipment, unparalleled in the world. Among these tools are a state-of-the-art MRI system with an exceptionally high magnetic field strength of 9.4 Tesla, enabling the acquisition and processing of ex vivo 3D data with remarkable resolution. Additionally, Liryc possesses two MRIs with a field strength of 1.5 Tesla, serving both clinical and research purposes by facilitating simultaneous analysis of cardiac structure and electrical signals. Complementing these resources is a multimodal platform and a micro X-ray scanner.
The primary aim of this project is to elevate the platform to new heights by expanding its capabilities through the acquisition of high-performance equipment specifically designed for studying electrical disorders of the heart. Simultaneously, the project aims to ensure the provision of comprehensive training to future professionals while facilitating the recruitment of new talent.
By procuring a state-of-the-art photon counting scanner, this project will contribute significantly to the advancement of medical care. It is estimated that this acquisition will allow for the treatment of 1,000 out of the 50,000 patients diagnosed with ventricular fibrillation each year.
