Scientists in Shanghai have successfully engineered the world's first laboratory-grown sinoatrial node, the heart's natural pacemaker, using human pluripotent stem cells. This biological pacemaker organoid is capable of autonomous beating and represents a significant breakthrough for cardiac disease research and drug screening. The development offers a potential new method for controlling abnormal heart rhythms. AI
