Encapsulation of Cardiac Stem Cells to Enhance Cell Retention and Cardiac Repair

Despite advances in treatment, heart failure remains one of the top killers in Canada. This recognition motivates a new research focus to harness the fundamental repair properties of the human heart, with human cardiac stem cells (CSCs) emerging as a promising cell candidate to regenerate damaged my...
