Scientific Advisory Board Meeting, February 27, 2026
On the 27th of February 2026, our first Scientific Advisory Board meeting took place. We are proud to collaborate with a group of six internationally recognised experts who support our project with strategic guidance and scientific expertise. Our Scientific Advisory Board plays a key role by bringing together diverse interdisciplinary perspectives, strengthening our work on innovative approaches to treat atrial fibrillation and bundle branch blocks, and enhancing our ability to achieve sustainable outcomes. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Eberhard Bodenschatz, John Camm, Cornelia Lee-Thedieck, Frits Prinzen Katja Schenke-Layland and Godfrey Smith for their time, commitment, and contributions to the project.
Patient Advisory Board Meeting, May 16, 2026
Patient voices matter! On the 16th of May 2026, our project Partner NIPC held the first Patient Advisory Board meeting of the NanoBeat project. Patients are at the heart of clinical innovation. Their experiences, perspectives, and needs are essential to ensure that the solutions we develop truly make a difference for patients and in patient care. The Patient Advisory Board will help us ensure that the concepts and technologies developed within NanoBeat align with real patient needs and can be successfully adopted in clinical practice. By actively involving patients in the design of the project, we aim to build solutions together – not just for patients, but with them. A sincere thank you to all patients participating in this advisory board for sharing their time, experiences, and valuable perspectives with us.
