Amazing work by Keller and Laflamme's advancing our ability to generate compact, ventricular cells from iPSCs - another step towards creating better models of development and disease. #singleventricle #iPSCs #cardiacdevelopment @AdditionalVent
don't be so immature, iPS-CM! PPDT/Pal and voila, all grown up! Nice work from Gordon Keller and Mike Laflamme's group
