Doctors & patients are saying about 'Beat Your A-Fib'...

"Dear Steve, I saw a patient this morning with your book [in hand] and highlights throughout. She loves it and finds it very useful to help her in dealing with atrial fibrillation."

2026 AF Symposium
My Summary Reports Written for Atrial Fibrillation Patients
by Steve S. Ryan, PhD
The 31th annual AF Symposium was held in Boston February 5-7, 2026. This intense 3-day seminar took place at the Omni Seaport hotel, a well-designed, ultra-modern conference venue. (Personally, I’ve been attending the AF Symposium since 2003.)
The 2026 AF Symposium featured 92 leaders in A-Fib research and clinical practice from all over the world. There were 40 lectures, 30 live and prerecorded cases, 11 Spotlight sessions on new technologies, 14 late breaking sessions, with 100 presentations and 103 abstracts.
These medical scientists, clinicians, and researchers shared recent developments in the A-Fib field in a forum unmatched by other conference.

From Dr. Jeremy Ruskin of Mass. General Hospital and Harvard Medical School:
“Steve Ryan’s summaries of the A-Fib Symposium are terrific. Steve has the ability to synthesize and communicate accurately in clear and simple terms the essence of complex subjects. This is an exceptional skill and a great service to patients with atrial fibrillation.”
