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 ahajrnls.org/4tVnVCr

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

Replying to @Ramihdd
@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 ahajrnls.org/3NFIQJG @KehatLab

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. doi: 10.1016/j.isci.2025.114040

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

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? doi.org/10.64898/2025.12.21.…

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. Learn more: thelandaulab.com

My lab at @WeizmannScience was completely demolished by the Iranian missile a few days ago. This is hard and sad as nothing was left to save. We study heart regeneration and regenerative medicine. As such, we will regenerate, regrow and rebuild. The one thing that wasn't gone is our motivation said one of my student. It is true. Here, I would like to thank many of my friends around the globe that offer their help, space and support. I really appreciate that.
