The leading example of the Leducq Foundation

The Leducq Foundation is a not-for-profit grant-making organization that has been fostering transatlantic collaboration in the cardiovascular field for two decades. Here we learn more about the history of the foundation, its ongoing projects, and its impacts on the cardiovascular field in conversation with David Tancredi, who has had an executive role with the Leducq organization for over 20 years, and with Connie R. Bezzina and Mete Civelek, who are coordinators of two financed networks of excellence.
