Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Amanda Herman"
- Amanda Herman's research primarily focuses on cardiac biology, particularly the mechanisms underlying cardiac dysfunction in heart failure and the development of cardiac cells from pluripotent stem cells.
- Key findings include the role of the unfolded protein response in the regulation of cardiac sodium channels in heart failure and the influence of extracellular matrix components on the efficient differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into cardiomyocytes.
- Her work also explores various molecular and cellular processes that contribute to vascular development and immune responses, highlighting the importance of splicing regulation and growth factor gradients in cardiovascular health and disease.
