Young electrophysiologists

The Young EP Committee facilitates, enhances and accelerates the development of electrophysiologists' early career.

A global network within the scientific EP community was created for members younger than 40 to assist them with scientific exposure and networking opportunities.

EHRA Young EP Committee 2018 - 2020

The committee's goal is to promote the work of its members and create a global network within the scientific EP community to assist with non-­clinical professional training needs.

EP National Ambassadors

 The EHRA Young EP Ambassadors are nominated every 2 years by the EP Working Group/National Cardiac Society President. 

The role of the Young EP Ambassador is crucial as it is to contribute to the creation of a global network within the scientific EP community, stimulate involvement and promote membership in their regions.

Young EP Initiatives

EHRA Young EP Insight Programme

The EHRA Young EP committee has launched a new networking opportunity for EHRA Young EP members.

The Young EP Insight Programme is a non-funded 1-2 week observership in a chosen EP centre.

This initiative puts in relation centres with Young EPs allowing young electrophysiologists to gain new experiences, expand their expertise and learn from other centres workflow and practices.

In addition, the hosting centre will also expand its network of collaboration and have the opportunity to show its clinical and educational excellence in the field of cardiac electrophysiology and devices.
