Chinese scientists have, for the first time, cultivated a beating heart structure with human cells in a pig embryo, reporting ...

Machine learning and surrogate modelling significantly reduced simulation time, enabling personalised cardiac models to be ...

The heart is the body's hardest-working muscle. Whether you're awake or asleep, or exercising or resting, your heart is ...

Simultaneously visualizing electrical and calcium dynamics in patient iPSC-derived heart muscle cells by Kyoto University edited by Lisa Lock, reviewed by Robert Egan Editors' notes ...

This computer model of the human heart show how electrical signals pass through heart tissue. The model was created by Marina Strocchi, who works with Steven Niederer at Imperial College London.

A Microscopic Marvel The researchers made these discoveries using zebrafish, which might seem like an unusual choice for studying human heart function. However, zebrafish hearts share remarkable ...

BACKGROUND: Electrical and dynamic stimulation are commonly used to enhance the maturation of engineered cardiac tissue (ECT) derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), reflecting the ...

It causes problems with the electrical system that causes your heart to beat, sometimes leading to cardiac arrest. Electrocardiograms (ECGs) are often used to the heart’s rhythm.

THE world’s first atlas of the human heart can take you inside the organ just like Google Earth, scientists say. Astonishing technology allows viewers to look at one healthy and one diseased … ...

The atrioventricular, or AV, node is the second key area of the heart’s electrical wiring. The atrioventricular node takes information about how fast the heart is beating from the sinoatrial node and ...

Heart block is a disease of the heart's electrical system. The heart beats irregularly and at a slower pace than previously, and sometimes, it may even stop.

Heart disease kills 18 million people each year, but the development of new therapies faces a bottleneck: no physiological model of the entire human heart exists – so far. A new multi-chamber ...
