Description
Come see our top 3 submitters present to a panel of AHA/HRS 'sharks' during a competition of research ideas related to the extensive GWTG-AFib registry! See if their ideas will make the sharks want 'more skin in the game' or say 'for that reason, I'm out!' The winner of the competition will receive the AHA/HRS Bill Lewis Investigatory Award plaque. Additionally, mentorship will be provided to the winner to assist with project completion.
Learning Objectives
- Identify funding opportunities available for AF research.
