This week we listen in to a wonderful roundtable discussion with 3 of the pioneers in the world of pediatric electrophysiology, namely Dr. John Triedman, Dr. J. Philip Saul and Dr. Edward P. Walsh. All three were 'there at the beginning' and share their memories of how they helped to shape the field of pediatric EP. How did Drs. Walsh and Saul choose to proceed with EP training in a pre-ablation and pre-pediatric EP training era? How did all three decide to start a fellowship program to train the next generation of EP doctors? What sort of 'technology' existed to perform ablations in Boston in the early 1990's and how did these experts come to be the first to perform an RF ablation in any human in Boston? How does the field differ today in comparison to its origins? Amongst their many professional accomplishments, what does each 'guru' view as their greatest professional achievement? These are amongst the many questions posed during a wonderful symposium that was held in Boston on 5/16/24 to celebrate both the 35th anniversary of the EP training program at Boston Children's as well as the milestone birthday of the program's founder, Dr. Edward Walsh.
