숙명여대 배규운 교수팀, 인간 심장의 초기 발달 과정 재현한 3차원 오가노이드 최초 개발

Seoul Wolseong University's President Moon Si-yeon announced that a research team led by Professor Byung-gyu Seo from the College of Medicine at Seoul Wolseong University and Professor Gang-jun Kang from the Department of Surgery at Seoul National University has developed a 3D elongating heart organoid (EHO) that mimics the initial formation process of the human heart in vitro.

The development of the EHO allows for the formation of a heart-like structure that grows and bends in three dimensions outside the human body, which is a breakthrough in recreating the complex spatial arrangement and structural axis of early heart development.
