Optical Pacing of Human‐Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Cardiomyocytes Mediated by a Conjugated Polymer Interface

The use of light for triggering skeletal and cardiac muscles allows lower invasiveness higher selectivity and unprecedented possibility to target individual cells or even subcellular compartments in a temporally and spatially precise manner. Because cells are in general transparent, this requires the development of suitable interfaces that bestow light sensitivity to living matter. In the present work, successfully demonstrated is the use of...
