Personal information

Cardio electrophysiology
Switzerland

Biography

I am researcher with a passion for cardio electrophysiology. Born in Sri Lanka and currently residing in Zurich, Switzerland.

I completed my MBBS degree in China before pursuing further education in Switzerland. I obtained a Master's degree from Fribourg University and went on to complete my MD-PhD at Bern University, specializing in cardio electrophysiology.

With a strong academic background in this specialized field, I have conducted extensive research and made significant contributions to the understanding and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias.

Outside of his professional pursuits, I enjoy traveling and photography. Additionally, I am actively involved in helping students in Sri Lanka who are interested in studying science. I collaborate with various NGOs to provide guidance and support to these aspiring young minds.
