Scott, CH-IPP (Cyber*eart Industrial Partners Program) is a great idea. ….
A few questions:1. How would we structure it? - The simplest would be just a flat organization of members. We already have the FDA as a member :)
2. What would members be responsible for and what would they get? - At the very least, they can participate in all the annual CH meetings. 3. Would there be a partner membership fee? - some skin in the game would be good
:)

I really like the idea of the industrial partners program. Let me also suggest that we consider hosting, or helping to host, an industrially focused workshop each year. Maybe affiliates could be offered a couple of free registrations. (We may also be able to get some help organizing / paying for this, either with NSF supplements or with FDA support.)

[H]ere are my thoughts:1. It would be good to have about 5-6 "useful" people on the advisory board. Useful in the sense that they are either contributing in time, connections or funds (perhaps in that order of priority).
2. Arvind [Ananthan
] from Mathworks is confirmed.
3. I can work with Nvidia and connect with some folks there. They are important as we scale our models.
4. Same thing with National Instruments - they give us equipment for the development of an interactive ICD test-bed
5. We should get some cardiologists. Helen Gill mentioned two for us to connect with. I can follow up with her.
6. Rick has been trying to get in touch with the Ann Arbor
Electrogram
database
person [

but no luck.
7. It will be good to have a bio-statistician on board too.
8. Perhaps a person like Dawn Bardot from the
http://mdic.org
or Tina Morrison from the FDA modeling and simulation.
