In humans, a specialized mRNA translation circuit predetermines the competence for heart formation at an early stage of embryonic development, a research team at the Center for Molecular Medicine ...
Scientists at the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology (IMBA) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences have developed a multi-chamber organoid that mirrors the heart’s intricate structure. The human ...
Rowan University biology professor Natasha Shylo is exploring left-right asymmetry development with a grant from the National Institutes of Health.
Your heart isn’t fully on the left — but it does lean that way. The reason lies in early embryonic development, when microscopic cellular movements determine your entire internal layout.
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 ...
