An engineer has created a 3D model of the human heart, inspired by his daughter’s heart condition, with the goal of creating a library of virtual hearts for researchers to use whenever they want.

The project leverages Novoheart’s proprietary mini-Heart Platform, a suite of 3D bioengineered cardiac tissues and chambers that replicate human heart structure and function more faithfully than ...

TCS: The project will create groundbreaking medical solutions, including the use of heart simulation as a source of digital evidence for new cardiovascular device approvals. This includes an in ...

Created from stem cells, Israeli researchers grow tiny, beating model of human heart The size of a third of a grain of rice, organoid connected to sensors reveals previously unknown aspects of ...

Researchers hope human cardioid platform will enable development of mature, complex heart models for drug discovery and regenerative medicine research.

The project, directed and coordinated by Professor Alfio Quarteroni, ran from 2017 to 2023, and aimed to develop the first comprehensive mathematical model of the human heart and its diseases.

Computational models representing human heart cells show higher accuracy than animal models in predicting an adverse drug effect, such as dangerous arrhythmias ...
