\n \n \n \nThe Mexican tetra fish can repair its heart after damage. The Mommersteeg Group's paper \"Heart regeneration in the Mexican cavefish\" suggests that a particular gene may hold the key to this inherent ability. If they can lock down exactly how this works, it may be possible to revolutionise how we heal damaged human hearts.
