We created the iCor (Institut del Cor-Institute of the Heart) to pluck up resources and talent to boost cardiovascular investigation and clinical options.
The team involves cardiologists, surgeons, interns, nurses, administrative assistants and full-time researchers from a multidisciplinary origin.
