Gwilym Morris is a cardiologist and electrophysiologist at the John Hunter Hospital, Newcastle. He has a long standing clinical and research interest in electrical remodelling of the heart, including that caused by endurance athletic training. Prior to relocating in 2022 to Australia he worked with Prof Mark Boyett investigating function and disease of the cardiac conduction system, and established the Translational Arrhythmia Research Group in Manchester University, UK. Among other projects the groups worked on athletic remodelling of the sinoatrial node, the atrioventricular node and pulmonary vein arrhythmogenesis.

Dr Corcoran is a Cardiologist at Alfred Health with a particular interest in the diagnosis and management of syncope. She trained initially in electrophysiology and pacing and, but subsequently became interested in blood pressure regulation disorders resulting in syncope. She undertook further training in the autonomic control of blood pressure at The Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute in Melbourne. She is passionate about evidence based approaches to the investigation and management of syncope.

Emily is a cardiologist and electrophysiologist working at the Victorian Heart Hospital, as Deputy director of Victorian Heart Rhythm Service. Emily completed her EP Fellowship in Canada, then established the AF ablation program at Monash Heart, with RF and cryoablation, and now pulsed field ablation. She established the AF hybrid ablation service with the surgical team, to treat all presentations of AF. She has a keen interest in novel device technology, participating in numerous FIM trials, including EV ICD and WISE system.
