Cierra Walker, a PhD candidate in the both the Materials Science and Engineering Program and Interdisciplinary Quantitative Biology Program at CU Boulder is the first author on a new paper in Nature ...
The Numbers First The only intact blue whale heart ever preserved and studied in detail came from a specimen that washed ...
The body's internal organs, including the heart, are controlled in part by a network of nerves known as the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS is linked to the intrinsic cardiac nervous system ...
Researchers from Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) and the Leiden-based biotech company Ncardia have joined forces to develop a new platform that enables the automated production of 3D cardiac ...
In the study, the researchers utilized the cardiac biology in an adult human heart to rapidly mature differentiated cardiac cells into a more adult-like state. Within 30 days, the researchers achieved ...
Human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) can potentially be cultured to produce any cell or tissue that the body needs to repair itself. However, developing the technology to accomplish this for ...
The heart is the first organ to form in a developing embryo, and all subsequent life processes depend on its proper function. But a range of genetic and environmental factors can lead to its failure.
