With the widespread issue of cardiovascular disease, there is a call for the development of technology to help in the recovery of heart attack victims. The development iPSCs alleviates the damage experienced by myocardial infarctions. Current research suggests that iPSCs are a promising solution to the issue of cardiac repair, and can help regenerate healthy tissue in damaged areas. This study aims to explore these possibilities and apply them towards the analysis of full manufacture and sale of this technology.
