A Cure For Heart Disease?
Reversing a heart attack: Scientists reprogram scar tissue into working muscle, By Christie Wilcox, April 18, 2012
According to Christie Wilcox article in Discover Magazine there is now a new type of cure for heart disease. Apparently you may heal the scar tissue (heart) by reversing the process of heart attack, and having the muscle once more working properly. The discovery may save life as well as money, and will do this without the need of artificial cells nor heart donors. What is most surprising about the outcome of this experiment is that the heart works just as well as before the attack if not better. I highly recommend you read it.
E, amazing article! I had no idea that technology has advanced this far! You have a great jumping off point here for your research. You could focus in on viral therapy or more specifically cardiovascular therapy! The next step would be to deepen your knowledge about the field!
