Israeli researchers have unveiled a new miniature model of the human heart that they say could be a “game changer” in transforming drug testing and cardiovascular research.
The model is a self-paced, multi-chambered replica of the human heart that is no larger than a grain of rice. According to the researchers, it will revolutionize the study of the heart and its functions.
The team comprised researchers from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem (opens in a new tab); the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology (opens in a new tab) in Haifa; and Rehovot-based biotech company Tissue Dynamics Ltd (opens in a new tab).
