Dr Elliott studied medicine at St. Thomas's Hospital Medical School, London. After qualifying in 1987 he trained in general medicine, gaining membership of the Royal College of Physicians in 1991. He completed his general cardiology training at St. George's Hospital Medical School, London. Over the past 10 years he has established an international reputation in the field of heart muscle disease, authoring more than 170 peer reviewed papers on the subject. Professor Lambiase is a consultant cardiologist specialising in electrophysiology at the Heart Hospital, University College London. He originally trained in Medicine at Oxford graduating in 1992. Following specialisation in Cardiology at the Hammersmith Hospital, he completed a PhD at St Thomas' Hospital London before sub-specialising in cardiac electrophysiology and pacing. He was awarded the British Cardiac Society Young Investigator prize in 2002 Professor Dhavendra Kumar is a Visiting Professor, Genomic Policy Unit, The University of Glamorgan and Consultant in Clinical Genetics for All Wales Medical Genetics Service at the University Hospital of Wales, Institute of Medical Genetics, Cardiff University. After qualifying in Medicine from the King George Medical College, University of Lucknow, India, he completed postgraduate training in Pediatrics with an MD. Since 1980 he has pursued a career in Medical Genetics in the UK. He is a Fellow of the American College of Medical Genetics (FACMG) and as well as Royal Colleges of Physicians (FRCP-London and FRCP-Ireland) and Pediatrics and Child Health (FRCPCH-UK). Professor Kumar's current research is focussed on inherited cardiovascular disease, specifically 'sudden cardiac death' and 'molecular genetics of chronic heart failure'. He represents and leads 'cardiovascular genetics' on the panel for cardiovascular research group in Wales.
