3D Model of the Heart’s ‘Brain’

(Inside Science) -- Scientists have developed a virtual 3D heart that shows the body’s neurons and their connection to the heart -- a tool they hope will help develop better lifesaving therapies for cardiac disease. According to researchers, this is the first model that has been created to digitally showcase the heart’s unique network of neurons, called the intracardiac nervous system (ICN). It helps fine-tune external signals from the body’s autonomic nervous system to keep the heart pumping smoothly. A properly working ICN is essential for good heart health.

Hearts thinking was told in quran, 1400 years ago.
(Quran 22:46)
{Have they not journeyed in the land that their hearts might understand and their ears might listen? For indeed it is not the eyes that are blinded; it is rather the hearts in the breasts that are rendered blind}.

[hellobro]

This does not mean that heart can think independently from brain.
If my heart is aritificial implant, will I be unable to "think with my heart"? if that's the case, will I be unable to become a muslim because I dont have a natural heart with its little brain? Answers are clear. But I agree that "thinking with heart" usually means not physical thinking, but spiritual imaginary metaphorical "thinking" or better to say feeling.
I am a muslim myself and as a tech & science guy I acknowledge that current scientific models are limited (even though they're very advanced than in the past), therefore cannot give a satisfactory answer to every question. Science is just a knowledge (model, system) to explain, calculate, predict about the events happening in our physical universe. But I believe there are aspects of the universe other than just physical.

(Sorry for long words, I am aware of the fact that I am not good with words. I just had thoughts and wanted to write them somewhere but not in my notebook, so decided to write here. If it was useful I am glad, or if it was just stupid words of mine, just ignore it.)

Allah hu ukbr almighty is greatest. hearts brain is mentioned in Quraan 1400 years ago. prooving it's from our creator

[juasjuasi]

Heart: Brain i need to process the necessary information so i can beat regularly and change it under specific conditions
Brain: What the hell? that is too much work, i am already busy with the gut wanting to evacuate the food and dealing with dumb emotions, go handle it yourself
Heart: You know what? *makes independent neural network*

അതാണ് ഞാൻ പറഞ്ഞത് തലയല്ല ഹൃദയത്തിലാണ് ചിന്ത. മറ്റേതു ഡമ്മിയാണ്. ഖുർആനിൽ തലച്ചോർ എന്ന വാക്ക് തന്നെ ഉപയോഗിച്ചിട്ടില്ല. ബൈബിളിലും വേദത്തിലും അതില്ല. അതിലൊക്കെ ഹൃദയമാണ്. ശാസ്ത്രം ഇനിയും പുരോഗമിച്ചാൽ ശരിയാവുമായിരിക്കും.

I guess it's spiritual brain that is in the heart. whenever I feel really close to God after night pray, I feel chill like cold water in my chest

[LoneWolfSonata]

And it was in the Bible 1000s of years ago.

[gehadibrahim]

Qur'an confirmed that
mind located in the heart

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:

00:17 🧠 The heart has its own backup system called the intracardiac nervous system (ICN) which fine-tunes its function.
00:44 📊 A virtual 3D heart model was created to study the ICN in detail, revealing neuron clusters at the top and back of the heart.
01:10 🧪 Researchers used a knife-edge scanning microscope to capture 750, 000 images and construct the 3D heart model.
01:25 💡 Knowing the neuron cluster locations can aid in understanding their roles and developing new heart treatments.
01:40 🏥 This information may lead to innovative ways to repair and treat heart conditions in the future.

Sciences and scientists come to know now a day that Heart have brain, but Quran told befor 1440 years ago that "we have give thinking power in hart but thain also unbeliever are not thinking".

This would be a better video without the echoey audio.

[marleymae]

Only God can search hearts.. He replaces our heart of stone with one with flesh, when we believe in His Only begotten son who died for us because he loved us.

[seraphim]

The nous is the eye of the soul. Located in the heart. Orthodox Christian’s have known this. Christ talks about this. Scientists know nothing.
