Mr Pierre-Francois Migeotte

Free University of Brussels (ULB), Brussels (Belgium)

Member of:

Heart Failure Association

Pierre-François Migeotte is a Physicist (ULB-1996) with a PhD focused on cardiac function monitoring and space physiology (ULB-2003). He is passionate about space exploration, astronauts, cardiac mechanics and entrepreneurship. Several years of R&D as a principal investigator in the field of and cardiac monitoring of astronauts in microgravity, lead him to design the Kinocardiograph: a small automated wearable system able to provide unique information on cardiac mechanical function for which he received the 2017 1st prize of innovation at the EHRA meeting from ESC. He is now dedicating all his energy in making this technology available for the largest number. The same Kinocardiograph will be used by astronauts in the International Space Station, participants in NASA and ESA bedrest studies and cardiac patients in hospitals or in a remote patient monitoring program.

The kinocardiograph for non-invasive assessment of cardiovascular function in health and disease.
