A visually dynamic abstract image combining elements of biology and chemistry. A prominent, translucent 3D double helix structure, representing DNA, twists vertically in the center. Surrounding it are interconnected hexagonal shapes and dots, forming a molecular or network-like pattern. The background is dark and blurred, with streaks of blue and white light, along with an orange glow near the bottom, creating a sense of depth and scientific wonder.

MyCardia™ has the potential to improve heart function and quality of life in patients with heart failure.  The heart lacks regenerative capabilities.  As a consequence, injuries to the heart such as myocardial infarction (heart attack) place a massive burden on the ability of the heart to perform (contract and relax) properly. MyCardia™ has been shown to improve both the squeeze and relaxation of the heart which can improve how well the patient feels and increase their quality of life.
