Dr. Udbhav Kharad

My name is Udbhav Kharad and I'm an Internal Medicine resident at McMaster University. I completed my MD at McMaster University and my Bachelors of Engineering at the University of Guelph. I have had a natural inclination towards the fascinating field of electrocardiography since medical school, and alongside that a zest for medical education. I thank everyone who has been involved in the exciting process of the development of this website, which has been several years in the making!

Dr. Myles Benayon

My name is Myles Benayon and I'm a current Internal Medicine Resident at McMaster University. I completed my MD at McMaster University and my Bachelor of Science with Honours at York University. I have a strong passion for medical education and teaching. Combining that with my fascination for ECGs and cardiac pathophysiology has been a great experience. I hope this website helps others as much as ECG Essentials taught me throughout its creation.

Dr. Lekhini Latchupatula

ECGs and cardiology have been a passion of mine for many years and incorporating that into my enthusiasm for medical education has been an immensely enjoyable experience. I aspire for this website to be as enlightening for others as the journey of creating ECG Essentials has been for me.

My name is Angela Hu, and I'm a first-year medical student at McMaster University (c2025). I previously studied Medical Sciences at Western University. I love visual arts and graphic design, and I'm excited about opportunities to intertwine art with medical education! I'm a graphic designer and figure artist for this website.

My name is Julia Simone, and I am a first-year medical student at McMaster University at the Niagara Regional Campus. I completed a Bachelor of Science at Western University in Medical Sciences with a specialization in Microbiology and Immunology. I have always been a visual learner, and I am grateful to be a part of this project as a graphic designer because I know how much I would have appreciated it as a learner. I love to draw and paint and have recently taken an interest in digital art as well. Whether it is for self-expression, my own learning, or explaining medical concepts, I hope to continue making space for art and creativity in my life!
