Fluid dynamics in heart development: effects of hematocrit and trabeculation
(Oxford University Press, 2018-12)Recent in vivo experiments have illustrated the importance of understanding the haemodynamics of heart morphogenesis. In particular, ventricular trabeculation is governed by a delicate interaction between haemodynamic ... -
On the dynamic suction pumping of blood cells in tubular hearts
(Springer, 2017)Around the third week after gestation in embryonic development, the human heart consists only of a valvless tube, unlike a fully developed adult heart, which is multi-chambered. At this stage in development, the heart ... -
Vortex dynamics in trabeculated embryonic ventricles
(MDPI, 2019-01-22)Proper heart morphogenesis requires a delicate balance between hemodynamic forces, myocardial activity, morphogen gradients, and epigenetic signaling, all of which are coupled with genetic regulatory networks. Recently ...
