Large-scale Initiative Actions
-----------------------

The aim of the Large-scale Initiative Actions Program is to achieve a specific level of scale for a research subject identified by the Institute with a direct link to its strategic plan and the defined milestones. The intention is to achieve the most effective application of the expertise of INRIA in specific fields.

An large-scale initiative action brings together researchers from INRIA project-teams to work on a multidisciplinary initiative. It ensures the coordination and involvement of research teams from different subject focuses, and includes collaboration not only between INRIA teams but also with outside partners, both academic and industrial.

There will only be a small number of large-scale initiative actions, each with a specified duration and with precise objectives and significant resources. The deliverables will be clearly defined in each proposal.”

CardioSense3D:
CardioSense3D is the first Large-scale Initiative Action.
The CardioSense3D action aims at developping a simulator of the cardiac activity that is suitable for clinical applications in order to understand better heart diseases, to enhance their prevention and diagnosis and at last to improve heart disease therapy.

This CardioSense3D action is led by Hervé Delingette (ASCLEPIOS research projetc-team from INRIA Sophia Antipolis - Méditerranée research Center. This action gathers 4 INRIA teams (in INRIA Sophia Antipolis - Méditerranée and INRIA Paris - Rocquencourt research centers) and several associated academic, industrial and clinical partners such as clinical teams of the Guy's hospital in London and the NIH in Washington.
