Highlights:

  • Profiled spatiotemporal gene expression patterns in human cardiogenesis.
  • Mapped cell-type distribution and spatial organization in the human embryonic heart. 
  • Thoroughly analyzed roles of diverse cell types in cardiac development.
  • publicly available web resource of the human embryonic heart.
