Researchers in the U.S. and Australia are ushering in a new era of pediatric medicine by using stem cells and AI to solve childhood heart disease.
Researchers in the U.S. and Australia have launched a new collaboration to solve childhood heart disease. The global research program involves the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute in Melbourne and the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco, with researchers working to identify the genetic causes of infant heart disease and develop new treatments for it through the use of stem cells and AI technology.
"These types of approaches will really allow us to pinpoint the underlying causes of childhood heart disease so that we can intervene early with targeted treatments that would prevent the heart from failing and prevent the need for transplantation," Professor Enzo Porrello, the Director of Stem Cell Medicine at the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, said in an interview with WNYW FOX 5 New York.
