NCT ID NCT02413450
Summary

Researchers will collect small skin or blood samples from 100 adult patients with specific genetic heart conditions and healthy volunteers. They will reprogram these cells into heart muscle cells in the lab to study how the diseases develop and to test potential future treatments.
