Abstract

This article describes the author's academic and work experiences. The author's journey of learning began in Mexico, where not only did it ignite the author's passion for electrocardiography, but it also laid a solid foundation for the author's subsequent research achievements in the field of electrocardiography. Under the influence of the Mexican School, the author actively participated and contributed their own efforts, witnessing the flourishing development of Mexican cardiology and its profound impact internationally. Subsequently, the author brought this passion and expertise back to Colombia, dedicated to the construction of the cardiology laboratory, especially in the development process of Kahanal cardiology laboratory, where the author personally experienced every stage from start-up to growth. Kahanal Laboratory is not only the cradle of the author's scientific research, but also a witness to the author's series of important achievements. During this period, the author had the privilege of working with many important figures in the field of electrophysiology and experiencing a series of landmark events in the field together. The work experience at Kahanal has enabled the author to deeply participate in numerous medical experiments, further enriching the author's professional knowledge and practical experience. At the same time, the author continues to monitor the progress of the Shaio Clinical Foundation in electrophysiological research, as well as the latest developments and trends in the entire field of electrophysiology and cardiac stimulation.
