Abstract: Spontaneous electrical activity, or automaticity, in the heart is required for normal physiological function. However, irregular automaticity, in particular, originating from the ventricles, can trigger life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. Thus, understanding mechanisms of automaticity and synchronization… read more here.
