... That by tweaking production and selection methods, it is possible to create atrial and pacemaker-like cardiomyocytes, which would allow researchers to control and abolish arrythmias.

🫀We’re growing hearts in a lab to beat heart disease– a major global killer. How? We're achieving substantial cardiac remuscularisation thanks to pluripotent stem cell cardiomyocytes (synthetic hearts in a dish). A recently published Nature Cardiovascular Research paper showed👇

Great to see this out now after many years work. Congrats to all collaborators @AIBNatUQ @UQ_News @StemCoreAus and Australia wide.
Excited to share our work on Pluripotent Stem Cell Cardiomyocyte graft arrhythmias just published in @NatureCVR nature.com/articles/s44161-0… Great team effort over many years particularly by first authors @dinukumar88 and @claytonzed 🙌 @WestmeadInst @syd_health @WARC_USYD

Congratulations to AIBN group leader, and Clamp2 Project lead, A/Prof Keith Chappell 🥳 preliminary clinical trial results have shown Keith's re-engineered clamp platform to be as equally safe and virus-neutralising as the current ‘best-in-class’ TGA-approved vaccine.
#UQ’s re-engineered clamp platform has produced a vaccine that is equally safe and virus-neutralising as the TGA-approved Novavax. Read more: bit.ly/3QPAHjC @StevenJMiles @CEPIvaccines @AIBNatUQ @UQscience @UniQuestUQ
