Soft Tech Helps Hearts Beat Better

September 23, 2025

Heart cells, or cardiomyocytes, send out tiny electrical signals. These signals make the heart beat. To study these signals, scientists need special tools. These tools must be gentle and precise. They must not harm the cells. A new tool has been created. It uses a special material called PEDOT: PSS.
