    Developmental Cell: CNIC team reveals how the heart is organized from the earliest stages of embryonic development

    CNIC researchers have discovered that the heart is formed from two independent cell types that act in synchrony from the onset of gastrulation. This finding could help to better understand the origin of certain congenital heart defects and open up new opportunities in regenerative medicine and tissue bioengineering.
