Cardiogenic programming of human pluripotent stem cells by dose-controlled activation of EOMES

The T-box transcription factor eomesodermin (EOMES) acts both in endoderm specification as well as heart development, suggesting context-specific function. Here, the authors show that dose-controlled EOMES induction is sufficient for cardiogenic programming of human pluripotent stem cells.
