Our group includes cardiologists (general and EP), stroke neurologists, geriatricians, general practitioners, epidemiologists and health economists, nurses, pharmacists physiotherapists and other allied health professionals, and patient advocates and health administrators. Our members include many of the best known researchers in atrial fibrillation alongside a number of early career researchers working on studies related to AF screening, or with a strong interest in AF screening. A full list is shown below.
Our members come from 40 countries including: Europe/UK Asia, North, South & Central America, Middle East, Africa, and Oceania. We are hope to increase the representation from Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East and are looking to find members from those countries with a strong interest in AF screening.
