So far, the programme has trained 150 participants from over 47 countries, over half of whom are from low-middle income countries, and over half women. Each year, the seminar takes place in a different location and focuses on a topic related to implementation science in cardiovascular disease prevention. This year, Dr Amitava Banerjee from the Institute of Health Informatics chaired the programme and the focus was on \u201c<strong>Heart failure and digital health<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>During the week, the Emerging Leaders received a tailored training programme and had to produce a seed-funded group project. The seminar was very successful and attended by two WHF Past Presidents, Professor Salim Yusuf (McMaster University), and Professor David Wood (National University of Ireland, Galway), the current WHF President, Professor Karen Sliwa (University of Cape Town), and the WHF President-Elect, Professor Fausto Pinto (University of Lisbon).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"post-1792 media-1792\" class=\"align-center break-container\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"post-1793 media-1793\" class=\"align-center break-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/world-heart-federation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/WHF.CDyson.14102019-35-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"post-1792 media-1792\" class=\"align-center break-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/world-heart-federation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/WHF.CDyson.14102019-16-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"post-1791 media-1791\" class=\"align-center break-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/world-heart-federation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/WHF.CDyson.14102019-7-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>The seminar culminated in an international symposium on \u201c<strong>Health policy and heart failure research<\/strong>\u201d at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhf.org.uk\/\">British Heart Foundation<\/a> (BHF) headquarters in London.
