Ghiringhelli et al bioengineered a human-like #atrial heart model that reproduces complex #arrhythmias & can be precisely controlled with light (#optogenetics). Learn about this new platform for studying #AFib at https://t.co/WPqiTzHzGN

What Mr. Trump’s career in business and politics has made clear is he understands one concept better than any other: leverage.

Huge congrats to Dr. Jop van Berlo (@UMNews) and Dr. Silvia Guatimosim (UFMG) on receiving the @American_Heart International Visiting Professor Award. They’re combining forces to tackle the complexities of cardiac remodeling and molecular cardiology. #Cardionerds #UMNresearch

@rbdamgaard @BarteltLab This will help break the impact factor bubble, which I don’t think advances science

@Ramihdd & colleagues by charting the heart cell #proteome & using #CRISPR for precise validation, identified a key protein that sustains the heart #proteostasis & preserves #mitochondrial protein levels. Find out more at https://t.co/krscAjpWqP

Finally out: We used CRISPRa/i to show that virtually ANY genomic site can become regulatory for cardiac genes—even without accessibility or active marks. TF recruitment remodeled chromatin & changed expression up to 70 kb away.

Tucker is indeed a scavenger, and the carcass he ransacks is the once great tradition of conservative thought in this country.

@IgorUlitsky Cut the product with Dpni. It cuts only methylated A. The plasmid is from bacteria and has methylated A, but the PCR product doesn’t

1/ Can #Axolotls teach us new things about #HeartRegeneration?
A great collaboration between @Tanaxolotl and Miguel Torres lab.
We’re happy to share our new work in which we ask how axolotls regenerate their hearts and could they help mammals with that?

Excited to launch the Landau-Levi Lab at @TechnionLive !
We develop organ-on-a-chip systems focused on cardiac and multi-organ interactions and the role of immune cells in shaping tissue function.

@RackMada מצטער אבל חייב לתקן: אחוז החמצן הוא 21.9% בכל הגבהים. מה שיורד הוא הלחץ החלקי של החמצן
