A team led by researchers at UNC-Chapel Hill have developed an innovative computer model of blood flow in the human heart that promises to transform how we understand, diagnose, and treat heart ...

Developed at RCSI, the new ‘mock circulatory loop’ model can mimic both a healthy heart and a heart in failure to help device testing. Researchers in Ireland have reached a “milestone” in heart health ...

Scientists from the Dublin, Ireland-based RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences report the development of a new lab-based model of a heart and circulatory system. The goal is to help test ...

Researchers from the University of Minnesota, with support from Medtronic, have developed a groundbreaking process for multi-material 3D printing of lifelike models of the heart's aortic valve and the ...

Atrial fibrillation is one of the most common kinds of arrhythmia, causing the heart not to contract properly in order to pump the blood, which can ...

Your heart is an amazing organ. It continuously pumps oxygen and nutrient-rich blood throughout your body to sustain life. This fist-sized powerhouse beats (expands and contracts) 100,000 times per ...

In a single IV injection, a gene therapy targeting cBIN1 can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the ...

In a large-animal model study, researchers have found that heart attack recovery is aided by injection of heart muscle cell spheroids derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells, or hiPSCs, that ...
