Background: Ventricular pacing is detrimental to cardiac function, with more deleterious effects when it is apical, widening the QRS complex, so the best cardiac pacing site is still being sought.

A micro-LED array based platform for spatio-temporal optogenetic control of various cardiac models
Optogenetics relies on dynamic spatial and temporal control of light to address emerging fundamental and therapeutic questions in cardiac research. In this work, a compact micro-LED array, consisting of 16 × 16 pixels, is incorporated in a widefield ...

Sensing and stimulation of the vagus nerve for artificial cardiac control [PDF]
This thesis focuses on sensing cardiovascular signals from the vagus nerve and electrically stimulating the vagus nerve for cardiovascular effects. Sensing cardiovascular signals was attempted on both spontaneous and evoked neural activity. A cardiac-modulated vagus nerve activity pattern was found in spontaneous vagus nerve activity.

Fabrication of scaffold-free tubular cardiac constructs using a Bio-3D printer.
A major challenge in cardiac tissue engineering is the host's immune response to artificial materials. To overcome this problem, we established a scaffold-free system for assembling cell constructs using an automated Bio-3D printer.
