Human pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived cardiomyocytes are emerging as a powerful platform for cardiovascular drug discovery and regenerative medicine. However, PSC -derived cardiomyocytes are typically immature, which limits their capacity to predict human biology and disease mechanisms. Here, I will discuss recent research from our laboratory defining mechanisms controlling cardiomyocyte maturation during postnatal development with implications for cardiac disease modelling, drug discovery and regenerative medicine.
