So it's time to take action to protect their hearts. Join me in raising awareness, providing information and saving women's hearts. Join Agir pour le cœur des femmes, a foundation chaired by Professor Claire Mounier-Vehier, cardiologist, head of the Vascular Medicine and HTA Department at Lille University Hospital, and former President of the French Federation of Cardiology. Its aim: to significantly reduce the number of women suffering from these diseases. There are several million of us. Please help us!
