This artificial “biohybrid” fish is made with commercially available human heart cells and swims by recreating the muscle contractions of a pumping heart. Published in Science, the system brings engineers closer to complex artificial pumps that could grow with young patients. It also provides a new platform for studying heart rhythm problems.
