Our team consists of students from University of California at Berkeley and Stanford University. Our goal is to repair damaged hearts. We are engineering embryonic stem-like cells to recognize and bind to damaged heart cardiomyocytes, form a sheet of cells and then differentiate into cardiomyocytes in situ. Cells that fail to bind in a defined amount of time will self-destruct.
