Dear Colleagues and Friends,
Welcome to one of the most important highlights of the year in 2018!
The NHAM Fellows Course will mark another milestone this year by hosting the very first
Fellows-in-Training (FIT) Jeopardy! It will be a thrilling, exciting and intensely educational session for
everyone.
We are proud to announce that the winning team will be awarded travel grants to represent Malaysia
to attend ACC.18 and join the FIT Jeopardy there!
The Fellows Course this year will continue its good tradition of being rich in scientific contents, and at
the same time, instructive in aiding our Fellows in excelling in their exams.
From Preventive Cardiology, Ischemic Heart Disease, Electrophysiology to Heart Failure, we aim to
deliver the most current state-of-the-art practice updates which are relevant to candidates sitting for
exams as well as early career physicians aspiring to learn more in Cardiology.
We shall see you all at NHAM Fellows Course 2018!
