modeling in which modeling generates hypothesis for experiments to obtain more
accurate information for model improvement, i.e., an approach that continuous
iterations between experiments and modeling may finally lead us to the true
mechanisms of cardiac excitation and contraction dynamics for normal rhythms
and arrhythmias. Finally, theoretical tools, such as nonlinear dynamics, are needed
to draw general conclusions for the complex system, which is key to design
effective experiments to unravel the complex dynamics, such as the excitation
dynamics in the heart.
