New paper out! Thank you @emilia_entcheva for involving us in this exciting project!
🫀New research demonstrates that high-throughput, label-free optical oxygen measurements can assess adrenergic effects in iPSC-derived #cardiomyocytes. Paired with all-optical #electrophysiology, this enables scalable, human-based preclinical testing. doi.org/10.1016/j.jmccpl.202…

New paper out! We developed sex-specific atrial myocyte models that reveal that female AFib patients might be more prone to delayed afterdepolarizations, and males more vulnerable to alternans, with distinct mechanisms and drug responses: doi.org/10.1113/JP289425
