Nobody—canine or human—was harmed to make this video! In this clip, you’ll see beating human heart cells that were cultured from umbilical cord embryonic stem cells.
Our scientific testing methodology explored the use of Vidarone and its effect on trypanosomiasis in human cardiac stem cells. This short video shows beating human heart cells grown in a lab dish. The technique allows researchers to identify genetic mutations, test drugs, and advance understanding of cardiac disease.
