Despite such vast biological diversity, it was believed until recently that the structure and function of the heart across mammals was the same. But research from my colleagues and I reveals that the ...

In a new study, published today (12 July) in Nature, researchers have produced the most detailed and comprehensive human Heart Cell Atlas to date, including the specialised tissue of the cardiac ...

The heart is the central organ of the human circulatory system. Both congenital and acquired structural changes in the heart can lead to hemodynamic alterations affecting the function of various ...

This allows us to create more advanced bioprinted heart tissue, with the ability to mature in a laboratory setting, better replicating adult human heart structure.

What is the coronary sinus? Read on to learn more about this important blood vessel in the heart, including its location, function, and role in different heart procedures.

But to their knowledge, this is the first study that has tested gene therapy on a heart disease model in non-human primates. The team also believes that this approach may be particularly effective for ...

New research reveals that the human heart has evolved distinct structural and functional traits that set it apart from our closest great ape relatives.
