Final MICROCARD workshop and Cardiac Physiome meeting September 2024

The last MICROCARD workshop will be organized together with the Cardiac Physiome Meeting, 12 to 14 September 2024 in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany. It will be part of a supercluster of events around MICROCARD hotspot Karlsruhe:

  • 4-6 September: the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH) meeting in Stuttgart
  • 8-11 September: the Computing in Cardiology (CinC) meeting in Karlsruhe
  • 12-14 September: the MICROCARD and Cardiac Physiome meeting in Freiburg.

Stuttgart and Freiburg are a 45 minutes and 1 hour train raide away from Karlsruhe, respectively, so it's easy to attend all three meetings.

3rd MICROCARD Workshop on 4 and 5 July 2023

On the 4th and 5th of July 2023 our third workshop will take place on the main campus of Strasbourg University.
