Integrating sonogenetics with ultrasound technology, non-invasive pacemaker is designed to manage cardiac rhythm disorders ...

While most people think of pacemakers as the small electrical devices implanted in a person's chest or abdomen to help control abnormal heart rhythms, Medtronic (Minneapolis) is offering a similar ...

Two pacemakers in the brain work together in harmony to ensure that breathing occurs in a regular rhythm, according to new research. That cooperation provides critical backup during respiratory stress ...

(PhysOrg.com) -- UCSF researchers have for the first time shown that an external optical pacemaker can be used in a vertebrate to control its heart rate. The model, which has been tested in zebrafish, ...
