Daniel Nicolici
Specialty: Cardiac Physiologist; Interventional, Cardiac Rhythm Management and Electrophysiology
Daniel Nicolici began his journey at MonashHeart as an industry biased learning (IBL) student after completing his Bachelor of Biomedical Science and Computer Systems Engineering in 2010. Daniel is currently the Lead Interventional Cardiac Physiologist at MonashHeart.
Daniel honed his skills as a cardiac physiologist by mentoring and advising many public and private cardiac centres throughout Australia on how to provide and increase cardiac diagnostic services and focused on the sub-speciality area of cardiac intervention, rhythm management and electrophysiology. Daniel noticed that the technology and level of non-invasive diagnostic cardiovascular tests in isolated and city regions of Australia are out dated and not to the level they should be in this day and age. This is how the idea of CardioScope was born.
